Now that most of the planet is Avengers Endgame'd out, I figured I'd take a look at Captain America and The Avengers! But why not drag the 16-bit wars into this and look at both the Sega Genesis and the SNES ports?

Without going into too much lengthy detail about the war between Sega and Nintendo for any readers who may not have grown up in the…

Mortal Kombat 11 has been out for a week now and has hit the ground running, but not without its share of early game bugs and glitches, as to be expected. On the Mortal Kombat 11 reddit page, they have announced and update the PS4 version.

Strong rumors had been circling for months about a Nintendo Switch port of Persona 5 was almost a guarantee. Speculation grew stronger when the game's protagonist, Ren Amamiya, or Joker, was announced as a guest character for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Well, on April 25th, a reveal for the expansion of the Persona 5…

It has been ten years since the series' last effort, Samurai Shodown Sen, released on the Xbox 360 in 2009 (2008 in Japan) and it was overall…

I often refer to the fifth generation consoles ("Hey, Clown-Face!") as the Dark Ages. Not because the games were bad, but the 3D rendering and texture mapping was at the same very young, but still incredibly fascinating ("Hey, Clown-Face!").
