Front Mission 3
A few years ago, when the first fire emblem games started coming out in the US a lot of people were telling me to try them out. They said things like, if you love RPG’s, you will love turn based strategy RPG’s. So, I rented the Gameboy Advanced version and, it did not click with me. It was not the perma-death I just would get bored. The fights take a long, long time and being thrown into the deep end with large units, you spend half an hour fighting a battle and then loose and have to start all the way at the beginning of the battle. I tried other games in the genre thinking I was just missing something. Like Phantom Brave or early Sega Shinning Force games for the Genesis, but it just never clicked with me. That was until I played Front Mission III. What made the difference for me? Why did it click when all the other games simply did not?

Dear Dungeon Masters, No Your Party Didn't Ruin Your Campaign
Hi, I’m C.E. Tidswell and I have a confession to make. When I first started running a dungeons and dragons group as a dungeon master I was a terrible rail roader. Well, I tried to be. Although I did manage to force my party to the ‘correct’ locations, I did ultimately lose control over them, but that is a different story.

The Missing Link
Several weeks ago, I encountered an article praising a modded version of Ocarina of Time and logged it away as a curiosity in my mind. But like a lot of things that get logged in the back of my mind it continued to pester me until my curiosity got the better of me and I looked into what it would take to play this game for myself. I will not bore you with details as they can easily be found on the game’s website. What I will say is that with little effort I soon found myself pleasantly playing a new/old title in the storied Nintendo franchise. So, can the game live up to the giants that are Majora’s Mask and Ocarina of time? Is it even fair to ask it to do so? Let’s find out.

Donkey Kong Country 2
This is my favorite classic SNES game, but probably not for the reason that you think. I know all of you reading this are likely aware of the legendary status of this game. Nintendo was behind in releasing their new console, the Ultra 64, and they needed to release top quality games on the SNES to compete. There long-time rival, SEGA and a newcomer competitor Sony had both brought new more powerful 32-bit consoles to market the Sony PlayStation in particular was turning out to be a real success. Nintendo needed to convince consumers that their older and less powerful console was still a competitor in the market. Indeed 1995 would see the release of some of the best games to grace the hardware in its history. Games like Yoshi’s Island, Chrono Trigger and of course Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy’s Kong Quest.

Pandemic Horror Gaming
How is anyone expected to have fun when they're isolated?! Me, personally? I like gaming, so I turned to that as a source of amusement, and utilized the game pass on our XBox One to see if there were any hidden gems. We (my partner and I) talked about each game that had an appealing concept and debated over whether I would like this one or that one, until I came across a game well-known as a movie title that made me pause and say, "Oooh, what about this one?"
