QuestorPS7's Beyond Oasis review
Thank you so much! I'm enjoying the site so far and look forward to doing more reviews of the games I play.

AQWBlaZer91's Fast Draw: Showdown review
There's a separate Mad Dog McCree game for Wii, also digital, which I reviewed and awarded the same score you assigned here. I think Mad Dog McCree was just never a good game, despite always looking interesting back in…

overdrive's Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble review
I think Rare has a thing for malevolent snowmen. They trotted them out in Battletoads, too, and it wouldn't surprise me if some made an appearance in Saberwulf (which I haven't played at length). As for your review…

You gave me an excellent idea what to expect from this game, which is to say: an experience well worth missing. It's easy to see why it didn't get released in North America. Dreamcast games could look just fine even…

QuestorPS7's Beyond Oasis review
Terrific review here. You did a great job of answering the questions I had about how Beyond Oasis might play, making it sound appealing in some ways without hyping up an experience I would most likely find as mediocre…

AQWBlaZer91's Final Fantasy VIII review
This is a well-supported teardown of Final Fantasy 8, one of the least popular entries in a mostly beloved franchise. I particularly agree with your points about Squall, and the lackluster plot. All of your bullet…

Cornwell's Faulty Apprentice review
This was a fantastic review. I feel like it took me through the disappointing experience of playing through a game that, as you said, looks good but disappoints where it matters. Thanks for sharing, and it's good to…

overdrive's Raging Bytes review
Might that be the TRUE goal behind the Kemco Khallenge?

overdrive's Raging Bytes review
Even during the horror cycle, you manage to drag out a Kemco review. I'm not even mad; I'm impressed. One day, you'll sell me on one of these games.

Nightfire's Satellite Reign review
hell yes, my first RPG ever and I luv it. Thanks to 5 lives This is epic. I played it in 2017 and got stuck... didn't realize how much I needed to pay attention to things. it's 2026 and I love this game. It has the…

[News] Dung Ho! has dropped a crapload of new content on Steam
It looks fine, honestly, and I think has pretty good ratings on Steam. Probably worth checking out if you have any interest in cooperative, team-based games of its ilk.

[News] Dung Ho! has dropped a crapload of new content on Steam
I see what you did there. This game had better be at least decent. They're leaving themselves way open for fecal puns regarding quality otherwise.

The unexpected Prometheus forum thread at HonestGamers
The only thing I liked about Prometheus is how ridiculous it was. That's half an indictment, but also half a praise because I love ridiculous films. Obviously, it didn't hit me the way it intended. Covenant was meh. Its…

Of HonestGamers site upgrades, bots, historical records, and your account security
Hello all! You can check recent updates for more details, but here is the month's biggest news in a nutshell: I'm back in the driver's seat at HonestGamers and the site has a new look with a lot of revisions to existing…

The unexpected Prometheus forum thread at HonestGamers
As this is being forced back into my conscious, let me catch up a little. Alien: Covenant was absolutely terrible and I can offer no redeeming option of it. Alien: Romulus was fine. Sadly, the franchise is in such a…

HonestGamers has a new/old owner again...
Thanks. There's always a cost that goes along with any new visual design, as we all have to adjust to where to find everything. We develop a sort of muscle memory over the years, a favorite way of getting around. The…

Hope things are going well with you, as well as the continued longevity and evolution of the site. Also, thanks to Jason for keep things going this whole time! Interesting update! It's certainly going to take time to…

HonestGamers has a new/old owner again...
This post is an announcement to let you know that I have made fresh arrangements with Jason Leyanna, who bought the site from me in February of 2022. I'm thrilled to announce that as of this evening, I once again own…

The unexpected Prometheus forum thread at HonestGamers
Like Looney Tunes characters running away from a cannonball, only to be hit by it on the far horizon, when simply turning the side would have spared them? (I edited this message.)

This thread is awesome and deserves to be revived. All the times.

dementedhut's Deep Sleep Trilogy review
It's been a minute since I've played this, but I do remember enjoying the first two games over the third one; the tonal shift in part three and the disappointing twist threw me for a loop. I would have easily given the…

dementedhut's Deep Sleep Trilogy review
Now I have played this game, I endorse this review. I think it does a lot to establish a genuinely unnerving atmosphere with excellent sound design and some creative jump scares considering the minimalist assts the…

hastypixels's Starcraft Remastered review
You make a good point, though I see the Terrans has the roughneck gunslingers of the bunch, eager to kick over the nest and take on all challengers. None of the characters prove otherwise in the story, nor were they…
-
hastypixels's Starcraft Remastered review
Terrans are offence first? Huh. They struck me as by far the most defensive race. Then again, I suck at FPSs, and couldn't finish the SP campaigns (almost did in Brood War, got stuck I think two scenarios from the end…

dementedhut's Fantasy Zone review
Sorry for the late reply! Was in the mood to review another SMS game, but I didn't want to stumble into a possibly bad one, so I went with a classic! Still engaging to play after all this time. Thanks for the reading…

dementedhut's Fantasy Zone review
I liked this review a lot. It did a great job of leaning into the wonderful absurdity that this game provides.

overdrive's Asdivine Cross review
Yeah, that would have been on accident. Been something like 20 years since I played Zero Wing and my brain's not fundamentally sound enough to recall the tortured attempt at English the intro to that one possessed. That…

dementedhut's Fantasy Zone review
"Describing anything in this game is impossible without sounding like a deranged person." The best description of my beloved Fantasy Zone I've ever heard.

overdrive's Asdivine Cross review
I was leaning more towards the "Zig set us up the bomb" meme. Guess you did do it on accident. I am disappoint. I don't think of Zig-friend as gone. I like to image him skulking around the edges, quietly fuming I can…
-
overdrive's Asdivine Cross review
So do I. Reason #1 I played this game to review it: the fact the secondary villain was named Zig. Might not be reviewing anymore, but I won't let the legacy die!
-
overdrive's Asdivine Cross review
"Zig sets him up" I see what you did there. I refuse to believe it was an accident.

dementedhut's Independence Day review
I was kinda-sorta in the same boat with my first few Sega Saturn games. I was happy to get a Sega Saturn for Christmas... but my local electronics store had a very-lacking and small selection of Saturn titles. It got so…

dementedhut's Independence Day review
I got this game for my birthday one year, from my Mom. She tried. But the local video store only had a few games, apparently, and this was one of them. She thought it would probably be pretty cool. The year after that…

jaxerz's Deltarune: Chapter 1 review
It's clear you have a lot of passion for Deltarune, which has a much larger following than I realized until this very week. Apparently, despite all those other big games getting announced, a lot of people were still…
