Sonic Forces
Oh Sonic the Hedgehog, you’re such a bizarre franchise. I’ve covered my experiences with the spiny blue one in a Super Series article, so I’ll skip that. Needless to say, Sonic was on form...

South Park: The Fractured But Whole
I love South Park. Another of those franchises that’s been close to me all my life, I remember my first experiences with it through getting VHSes of the first few series, and seeing the...
Super Mario Odyssey

Super Scribblenauts
The Nintendo DS is such a weird console in retrospect. It looked, early on, to be an underpowered unit with a pointless two-screen and touch-screen gimmick. Many saw it lose Nintendo its dominance in...
