The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

- Reviewed on  PS4  - The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim released on November 11th, 2011. Skyrim, the fifth game in the Elder Scrolls series, is an essential, open-world game any and all players around the world must try at least once (in my opinion)! This world created by Bethesda is abundant with monsters, magic, scenery, dungeons, and of course... dragons. With nearly unlimited replayability, Skyrim (Bethesda) puts you in control of your own narrative. This review WILL have  Major Spoilers  so keep that in mind before continuing... Taking place in the northern part of Tamriel (the continent), Skyrim is considered the snowy, frigid section, and is home to a wide variety of races that you can choose from (to play as) in the beginning of the game.  The races you can play as are...     - Altmer     - Argonian     - Bosmer     - Breton     - Dunmer     - Imperial     - Khajiit     - Nord...

Call of Duty: Finest Hour

- Reviewed on  GameCube  - Call of Duty: Finest Hour released on November 16th, 2004.  Developed by Spark Unlimited, Finest Hour takes the legendary first-person shooter series and drops it onto sixth-gen hardware—and while time has definitely aged parts of this experience, there’s something about this one that still sticks with me.  Especially the music. We’ll get there. This review WILL have  Major Spoilers  so keep that in mind before continuing... What makes Finest Hour different right away is how it splits its story across three major Allied campaigns: Russian, British, and American. That means you’re not just following one soldier—you’re thrown into the chaos of World War II from multiple perspectives, each with its own tone, objectives, and locations.  One moment you’re fighting in snowy Soviet ruins, and the next you’re sneaking through North African towns or storming German bunkers with the Americans. Each campaign is broken up into disti...

Monster House

- Reviewed on  GameCube  - Monster House released on July 18th, 2006.  This 2006 game, based on the movie of the same name, takes you on a journey through a "seemingly" haunted house... or more appropriate, Monster House.  The game itself doesn't live up to the movies charm (in my opinion), and it really does vary on who should play this game, and who can afford to just miss out on this (average) 5-hour story.  This review WILL have  Major Spoilers  so keep that in mind before continuing... Monster House puts you in control of three main protagonists. These protagonists are also the main characters in the respective movie.  They consist of DJ, Chowder, and Jenny.  Anyone can understand the plot of the game (even if you don't know the movie) by simply listening to DJ's intro scene of the game.  The main game is (SPOILER) about the three kids who seek out to figure out the mystery behind Nebbercracker's home.  After getting swall...
