This game couldn’t have come at a better time. The world is going through a global shutdown and many of us are left wondering what the future will hold. We feel disconnected from friends and loved ones and we long to feel like a community again. Animal Crossing: New Horizons was that game that found […]

Posted on March 10, 2020June 21, 2020 by paigethemage

Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening originally came out for the Nintendo GameBoy in 1993. Growing up, my parents couldn’t afford to buy me a GameBoy and the only time I played games on this system was when my next door neighbor let me borrow his, in exchange for letting him use the old Electronic games […]

The Outsider by Stephen King and HBO Series

Posted on February 29, 2020June 1, 2020 by paigethemage

UPDATE: The show has ended and I actually enjoyed the last two episodes. I felt the tension that led up to the shootout between Jack and the group as they were trying to get into the Outsider’s lair. It played out comparing it with the book and Jack definitely came off crazed and conflicted as […]

Luigi is back again with his trusty Poltgergust 3000 bringing down ghosts in this follow up to the 3DS title, Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon. I was definitely excited about this title. I never owned a GameCube as a kid but managed to pick up the first game years later. I fell in love with the […]

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: Black Order Review

Posted on February 5, 2020June 21, 2020 by paigethemage

It’s been almost ten years since the last Marvel Ultimate Alliance game was released. I played the first installment of the franchise back on the PS2 and the second on the Wii (yes it has been that long!)

Librarian by day, badass by night.

Posted on January 21, 2020June 16, 2020 by paigethemage
