If you are reading one of these "Recap" blogs for the first time, then you are probably new to Dtoid, or just unaware of the Community Blogging scene that is part and parcel of this site. The Community Blogs, or C-Blogs for short, hav...

I get the hate, games that have been sold to us since GameCube or newer right? I've avoided all those. I'm very looking forward to the classic games being able to be played online, but that's probably the old school me. Shit, if ...

Mukashi mukashi -- as tales in Japanese folklore often begin -- I found myself sitting in front of an arcade cabinet in Tokyo. It had been a long two weeks of riding the rails across Japan with nothing but my limited knowledge of the l...

Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories in an action RPG developed and published by Square Enix for the PS2 in 2007 and later ported to PS3 in 2012 and PS4 in 2017. It's a remake of the GBA original from 2004 and serves as a sequel to the ...

Sigh, who actually thought this was a good idea? This is an example of how not to design end game content. Luck based progression is not what you want to do when you need said gear to unlock content. First and foremost, the biggest pro...

Wooo! Nintendo Direct! I had some pretty high hopes for this Direct considering how Smash-Heavy the last two had been. I enjoy Smash and I’m excited to play the next entry in the series but my Switch is more than just a Smash-Mac...

So how about that new Mega Man game? Everyone’s getting excited for it. There’s even a demo available. It’s great to see Capcom pulling their heads out of their asses with Mega Man and actually addressing their audie...

Arkham Knight! Well, I'm not 100% finished it (more on that later when I bitch about the Riddler) but I've completed the story and all but one of the infamous "Gotham's Most Wanted". I'm going right to story here. What a HUGE improveme...

  SPOILERS AHEAD | SPOILERS AHEAD | SPOILERS AHEAD | SPOILERS AHEAD | SPOILERS AHEAD   If I haven't made it totally clear just yet, this post will contain MAJOR SPOILERS for Insomniac's Spider-Man on PS4. You have been w...

Overwatch is a game of love and pain for me. I love that the game focuses on team play, that it has a colorful cast of characters, how different each character is, and that the game is fast paced like Quake. Then again, most of those ...

The year was 2015, Febuary. I put my Vita down on my lap and stared at Guacamelees End Credits... What an Amazing game... It took me this long to discover the beauty of MetroidVania games?At this point, Guacamelee had a couple of years...

I’ve been playing Strafe lately and I have to say, it’s fun. I rarely have fun when I play video games, even though I play quite a bit of them. Strafe is like being inside the mind of a 90s FPS developer’s mind, if he...

Obligatory SPOILERS WARNING. This blog will contain major spoilers for Spider-Man (PS4), so if you haven’t finished the game, you should probably stop reading now.  Spider-Man is a good game. Web slinging is fun as hell, an...

I seem to mention this game every now and then in the comments so i wanted to do an opinion/review of this game It has the honour of being the first game i ever backed on Kickstarter  Which was launched in 2012 and got a earl...

  NO SPOILERS ahead. Just a Barrage of my Screenshots. You have been warned. Insomniac have absolutely mastered the feel of our favourite web-head; everything from each swing through the bustling city streets, to his awkward-yet-h...

I was really hoping to finish Dragon Quest XI before I wrote anything about it, but my need to play Spider-man overcame me and now I am unsure of when I will get around to finishing Dragon Quest. Well, more like I don’t know how ...

            Over the last couple of weeks I've seen my enjoyment of Warframe slide downward a bit and noticed a very bad trend that's inspiring me to stop playing it altogether. The pressure to spend real...

Sooner or later everyone accumulates too many games and too few hours to play them. This is how I deal.   Games, too many great games, too few hours. How do you deal? This is the time where all the heavy hitters come out. The Chr...

Hey there. I've really always hated introductions, they're the hardest parts of these things to write. But I've found some videogames with minigames and I'd like to talk about them if that's alright. Here’s some minigames I like ...

    Hi, Salador here, two weeks in a row. And for this week's 'ism', I've been inspired by a metaphor in this week's blog from Dwavenhobble. In it, he compares gaming to 'a giant house with rooms for everyone to find so...

After much turmoil, it seems like I can focus more on my game development. My burn out period is pretty much over. As much as I want to speed this whole thing along, I know if I turn this into a crash course, I'll just burn out again....

Meant to get this uploaded this past weekend, but was rather busy *cough* Spider-Man *cough*. We go WAY off the rails from the get go, just so Nanners can talk about anime, so blame him. We do eventually get back to talking about game...

  Final Fantasy XIV has been around for quite a while. The Rising event is currently underway celebrating five years of success and reportedly the MMO has hit 14 million users. While FFXIV offers an immersive main story questline...
