Winter 2019 may go down as one of the better anime seasons of all time. We had the absurd antics of JoJo and the Byzantine scheming of Kaguyama and Shirogane.

I had forgotten to post this here, but on the second day of PAX East I saw a good mix of more well-known games and obscure titles. To summarize, I saw Mortal Kombat 11 (I somehow did a 180 on the violence in this game), Splitgate: Arena Warfare (Old school + Portal = a multiplayer shooter … Continue reading PAX East 2019 Day 2 Previews: Mortal Kombat 11, Splitgate, Falcon Age And More
