Jim Henson, American puppeteer and animator known for his educational children's show Sesame Street, and about 30 other properties. Basically, if there was anything that had to do with puppets, there is a really good chance that Jim Henson (and Frank Oz) had something to do with it. The mans talent was limitless.

In 1982 Jim Henson created one…

Finally! After two and a half years waiting for any type of announcement from Marvel or Square Enix we get this tweet today from Marvel Entertainment.

As you can see Marvel is naming the game "Marvel's Avengers" and I…

The third of Konami's anniversary collections they've been releasing this season reveals its itinerary of Contra titles, and it's pretty great. Contra Hard Corps, a Sega Genesis/MegaDrive exclusive and one of the more rare games in the series, is included, as well as the regional variants, like Probotector, as the series is known in the European part…

We have reached the end of Contra Month, and what better way to wrap up the month than to talk what I think is the best made Contra and one of the top tier Genesis titles that outshines the SNES' The Alien War. Contra III is a very good game, but the one key element that puts Hard Corps over is they omitted the novelty level. Sure, with Mode 7, the…

It appears that there may be a chance a brand new Contra game could be in development from Konami. This could be a very stunning development, as despite Konami making record profits five years in a row, their pipeline for new projects have been dry. Aside from Super Bomberman R, (an underrated game), Pro Evolution Soccer and Metal Gear Survive (a game…

The very first Star Ocean game saw a redistribution on the Playstation Portable in 2008, at the time, the only legit means players in the US would have had a chance to enjoy it. Well, now in the age of Remake-a-Mania, the tri-Ace developed RPG will receive a newer facelift on the Playstation 4 and the Nintendo Switch. The development of Star Ocean…

The mountains of feedback to the Sonic the Hedgehog trailer released back in late April was so severe that it was virtually impossible for anyone at Paramount to notice. To say fans were less than happy with the CGI mockup of the Blue Bomber would be a gross understatement. Filmmaker Jeff Fowler may avoid a catastrophic directorial debut by deciding…

You are probably more surprised that the Ouya was still alive before you clicked to read this article. It's ok so we're we.

The Android-based Ouya console was meant to be the answer for a way to play games, cheaper! Before it's release in 2013 it was a part of a crowdfunding project that was met in less than 8 hours. This console, who was marked to be…

There have been rumors flying around the interwebs for years now about a Game of Thrones video game. Some suggestions going around have been an MMO to a "souls-like" game all the way to a card based board game.  

Then in April it was rumored that George R.R. Martin was working with a Japanese video game company on an upcoming…

Week 3 of Contra Month, it's arguably the most popular game of the 8 to 16-bit Contra series. Being the first entry on the 16 bit platform, The Alien Wars ups the ante with more mid bosses, bigger stage bosses, and even more daunting stages. In my eyes, this game changed Contra forever. I don't mean that in a bad way, necessarily. Mind you, this isn't…

The early speculations of the next generation have been underway, and it looks like Sony takes a major opportunity to reveal what looks like seamless, if not nonexistent, loading times for its next gen console.…

It’s never good news when a game is delayed. Even if it IS for good reasons.

In a recent tweet, the game devs declared their mission of quality as the reason for delay.…

If by chance you missed out on the first Super Mario Maker on the Wii U, it was an amazing showcase of off-the-wall creativity and mayhem from what was one of the console's most popular games. A follow-up was almost guaranteed, and some of the new features revealed in the Nintendo Direct look very promising. Here's a brief…

This is kinda huge. 



Announced today, and right out of left field, Sony and Microsoft are partnering up. Yeah I was caught off guard by this also. What does the new partnership entail? 

They both want to enhance customer's experiences in a new "direct-to-consumer" entertainment platform that will use the power of the cloud to bring…

Milton Bradley is going to take you back to the past...

Contra Month continues with this little beast of a game. Operation C is one monster of a game for Nintendo's little handheld. The concept of a Gameboy or having your video games on the go was quite a luxury, and while it didn't quite pack the power of the NES, there were more than quality titles on it. Konami's development of Operation C ranks as one…

In celebration of their 30th anniversary, collectible sports card company Upper Deck has entered a multi-year deal with Overwatch League to create both digital and physical cards featuring players and teams of the Overwatch League. This is the first time that Upper Deck has done anything like this before, and with the TV spot that Overwatch League…

I am not a big horror person, never have been. Most traditional horror is jump scares or "slasher" movies. I don't like these kinds of horror. I personally enjoy "psychological" horror. Stuff like "In the Mouth of Madness" and "The Number 23". 

However, one of my favorite horror movies ever was "Stephen King's IT". I have read the book, I have…
