Improving Your Game: 3 Reasons No Arcade Fighting Game Lover Should Be Without An Arcade Stick

May 28, 20181

var noskimwords = 'true'; Improving Your Game: 3 Reasons No Arcade Fighting Game Lover Should Be Without An Arcade Stick Gamepads are typically the preferred controller when playing video games. However, taking a look at the benefits of opting for an arcade stick, also known as a fight stick, it makes sense why one would want to make a switch. Arcade sticks are easier to hold and press buttons. One reason arcade sticks are better than their gamepad counterparts is that you have more control over buttons as they are all on one flat surface. Because of this flat surface, sticks can be placed on a lap, floor, or table during gameplay. Unlike gamepads, one doesn’t have to worry about holding the controller in place, making arcade sticks easier on the arms. Not being required ...

Video Games by the Numbers

GeekySweetie
March 8, 20170

  Like many of my readers, I have been playing games for over 3 decades now. Some of my fondest childhood memories are of hours spent playing games like Super Mario Kart and Donkey Kong Country on my SNES with my friends, or time spent immersing in the stories of RPG classics back in the 16 and 32 bit era such as Lunar on the Sega CD or Zelda on the SNES and N64. Video games have a long history and continue to entertain new generations of kids who are growing up gaming, just like they did back in the 80s and 90s. To celebrate video games, the team at The Monitor Monitor has put together this infographic of consoles, the number of games produced for each console, and sales numbers for the top selling games on each console.

Stardew Valley Review

GeekySweetie
January 16, 20171

As mentioned in another post here, I spent much of this past weekend playing Stardew Valley on the PC. Stardew Valley is a game that harkens back memories of popular retro games such as Harvest Moon and Rune Factory. The game is fun and relaxing... however, like most games in this genre, the gameplay can get tedious and repetitive at times. Stardew Valley also suffers significant development delays and setbacks, which is not surprising considering the entire game, from the graphics, to music, to programming, was all made by just one person. It doesn't get anymore "indie" than that. Despite these few small flaws, the game is one of the highest rated Steam games of all time with nearly 50,000 Overwhelmingly Positives since its release in February 2016. If you're still wondering if Stardew Va

5 Best Anime Games of 2016

GeekySweetie
January 8, 20171

5 Best Anime Games of 2016 Continuing the long standing tradition of converting shows and comics into video games (or vice versa), 2016 has delivered us a slew of very decent games. Compared to their predecessors, these games have come a long way from the old days when Bandai meant a relatively short and generic gameplay experience. But enough stalling; you came here for a list of great games, and here it is! Just be sure you’ve got the right console to play on. Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 If you’re into fighting games and follow the Naruto universe, this one is definitely for you. Continuing the visually flamboyant style of the previous Ninja Storm games (as well as the absurdly long title conventions), Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 offers a vast se...

Final Fantasy XV Review

GeekySweetie
December 19, 20164

It's been awhile since we've done a review around here with the holidays and all. It's time to fix that. Having just finished FFXV over the weekend, that seems the best candidate for a review this week. I've been a fan of Final Fantasy for a long time, ever since "Mystic Quest" on the SNES. Final Fantasy 6 (3 in America) is still my favorite in the series. I've played every Final Fantasy Game since the 16 bit era. And I'm "strange" I know, but I don't really like FF7, not as much as everyone else seems to be in love with that game. But Final Fantasy in general always holds a special place in my heart. If I had to rank my favorite FF games that I've played from best to worst, it would look something like this when using the corresponding Japanese numbers for each title... With the newest ga...

Countdown to Black Friday with New Deals Every Day on Amazon

November 4, 20163

Amazon just launched their Black Friday Pre-sale event. You can check back every day for new items at http://amazon.com/Black-Friday/... Already they are offering up some pretty sweet deals for geeks and gamers. I recommend bookmarking and checking back as often as possible. I'm hoping for a PS4 Bundle or Console to go on sale. I have enough already to purchase, but since it is that time of year, saving some money never hurts, and I've waited this long already to get myself the newest consoles, so might as well hang in there a few more weeks and see what happens! Last year, amazon had amazing black friday and cyber monday exclusive gaming bundles for all three major game systems including Xbone, PS4, and WiiU. This year the savings should be even greater since the technology continue

Smite Game Review From a Girl That’s Never Played MOBA Games

GeekySweetie
August 23, 20161

I began playing Smite with a friend last week. It's my first time playing a MOBA game. I've avoided them because I heard how competitive they can be, such as league of legends. I've been playing it for a few weeks, but only last week for any real length of time or effort. Sorry if you played with me the last few weeks; I'm sure that I cost you to lose some matches, because I had no idea how to play for the first few weeks. I still don't really, but I'm getting at least a little better. It does have a kinda steep learning curve, well for me at least. You have to understand, I typically go for "artistic" games which emphasize story over action - in fact some have no action at all, while others have "turn based combat" - so for me to be in real time combat and have to be "situationally aware"...

Pixel x Pixel Games Announces Guardian of The Rose Action RPG With Branching Plot and Multiple Endings Based On Your Choices

GeekySweetie
June 1, 20160

If there's one thing that I love in a game, it's a branching plot and multiple endings, as you'll see from many of the games reviewed or news given here on this website. So I was really excited when Pixel x Pixel Games emailed me yesterday to promote their new Action-RPG. This game looks really great for retro game lovers. It was clearly made with a lot of love and fond memories of someone growing up in the 90s playing all of the classic games. I'll just include the message I received from Pixel x Pixel Games below because it pretty much highlights all of the features that I would want to highlight about this game. I've bolded the bits that I thought were the most exciting. Check out what Pixel x Pixel Games has to say about Guardian of the Rose below. Guardians of the Rose is a sto

Amazon Prime now gives 20% off all New Game Releases and Preorders

January 15, 20161

Have you been trying to justify an Amazon Prime Membership? Well if you're a gamer, here's the perfect reason to join Amazon Prime! I'm going to join next time before I purchase a new release or preorder another game. I already use Amazon when I want a physical copy of a game anyways (still mostly rely on steam for the digital, though I think this discount also applies to digital stuff too!), so why not take advantage of this awesome Prime benefit?! This is not just a "sale" or an "offer" - This is a FEATURE - a permanent benefit to being an Amazon Prime Member. You will get 20% off all new releases if you purchase within 2 weeks of launch date or also receive 20% whenever you preorder a new game! Let's do the math. Most new release titles go for $55 to $65. 20% of $55 is $11 and ...
