Remembering Joe & Mac 2: Lost in the Tropics
 Functional simultaneous co-op is, or at least was, tricky business. Even the flagship Nintendo games of the Super Nintendo era, Super Mario World and Donkey Kong Country, could not manage simultaneous co-op, instead forcing players to take turns. This weakness on the part of Nintendo was a boon for third party developers like Data…
Review: Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 (Switch 2) – Best-In-Class Bombast That Doesn’t Shortchange Nintendo Gamers
The Price you pay. It’s been a while since I played a Call of Duty, but Modern Warfare 4 felt all at once familiar and refined to the Nth degree. Basic movement in this game is just majestic. Infinity Ward has had plenty of practice honing the fundamentals, of course, but there’s a balletic precision…

My GOTY is $7 and has 253 Steam reviews
Fast-paced. 3D Platformer. Parkour. First-Person. Racing. Those are the tags affixed to the Steam page for Stuntboost, a game that I’ve had trouble summing up with a clean label when asked about it. Stuntboost is a skateboarding game that sometimes features a car, a platformer with a speedometer, an ode to those shrunken bedroom maps…
A new Fallout 4 mod adds an entire town, but more importantly, it lets you join a gang
There’s nothing I like more in a Fallout game then stumbling across some weird little settlement filled with oddball characters. So when I saw that this mod for Fallout 4 added a whole new town called Detour that’s built on top of an overpass near Bedford Station, that was an instant download. Better yet, the…

The closure of BioWare is a tremendous loss, not just for gamers but for Canada: The Edmonton-based studio was named one of the country’s best places to work multiple times over the years, even after the Electronic Arts acquisition that ultimately spelled its doom. It’s not entirely surprising, then, that its shutdown caught the attention…
