Welcome to PS2 Review Week! Each day of this week I’ll be reviewing an old PS2 game I love and still play, focusing on the slightly lesser known or lesser played games and franchises (so no, even though I loved Final Fantasy, you won’t find reviews of it here). For day 4 We have... Continue Reading →
Shadowrun Returns
Many might know Shadowrun, and more yet might now Shadowrun Returns: a tactical turn-based RPG set in a cyberpunk/fantasy world that fuses the best of tech and magic. I can’t really speak for how Shadowrun Returns maintains the rules and setting, for I’ve admittedly never played the original game. I have, however, recently spent many... Continue Reading →
Capsule
Capsule is a very short (1 to 2 hours at most) immersive game that comes with quite a few warnings, and I can understand why. The developers warn anyone with claustrophobia, misophonia, or other similar phobias not to play the game. And why? Because this is truly one game best played in the dark. If... Continue Reading →
Dishonored
If you don’t know Dishonored at least by name, then, my friend, you’ve been sorely missing out. Arkane Studios and Bethesda brought to us one of the most amazing stealth games I’ve ever played. Biased? Maybe a little. I don’t think I need to start with what Dishonored is about, as it’s such a well-known... Continue Reading →

Let The Right One In by John Ajvide Lindqvist
Let the Right One In by John Ajvide Lindqvist My rating: 4.5 of 5 stars I can't believe anyone's mentioning Twilight in any form of comparison with this, because the only thing they have in common is it deals with vampires... While I felt the story itself was kind of basic (what is original anymore?),... Continue Reading →
Castle in the Air by Diana Wynne Jones
Castle in the Air by Diana Wynne Jones My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is a sequel to Howl's Moving Castle, and like it, it doesn't fail to deliver it's funny moments. The setting is slightly different, however, as it reminds you more of something just out of 1001 Nights. There's even appearances of... Continue Reading →
La Saga de los Confines (Trilogía) by Liliana Bodoc
La saga de los Confines by Liliana Bodoc My rating: 5 of 5 stars I can't say how much I love this trilogy. I bought all three in a whim, and when I learned the author had previously only made children books, I thought I would be disappointed, but I was not. I don't regret my... Continue Reading →
