Sometimes, you stumble upon a delightful form of coincidence. Recently, I decided to revisit the classic Reservoir Dogs (1992). The last time I watched the film was probably fifteen years ago when I first picked up the DVD. Not even two days after recently revisiting this Tarantino classic, I spotted the special 2-disc edition at a thrift store. Naturally, I couldn’t pass it up. Continue reading
In the Netherlands, there’s a tradition that, for me, used to be the way to get cheap new video games. It used to be on Queen’s Day, but now on King’s Day, I would go with my parents and the rest of the family to a flea market. A giant field where everyone from the neighborhood and surrounding areas was selling their stuff. For me, it was the way to celebrate King’s Day! Continue reading
Some people love football games. Others can’t stand them. I fall into the latter category—unless we’re talking about something a bit different. FIFA Street 3 might just be the most overlooked entry in the franchise, but for me, it’s an oddball gem I keep coming back to. Continue reading
When people talk about legendary Game Boy games, titles like Tetris or Pokémon often come to mind. But for me, Super Mario Land 3 — better known as Wario Land — tops the list. It might just be my all-time favorite. Why? Well, let me take you back in time. Continue reading
It’s been about six months since I bought the Valve Steam Deck, and wow—I’m blown away. These days, I play all my video games exclusively on the Steam Deck, leaving my other consoles and platforms gathering dust. What makes the Steam Deck so good that I’ve abandoned the rest? Here are five reasons that convinced me. Continue reading
I’ve watched 2014’s X-Men: Days of Future Past nearly ten times now, and I still can’t get over how incredible this film is. Heck, even on a long flight last month, I rewatched it—it’s that good. As a fan of the X-Men franchise, we’ve been pretty spoiled with a total of 13 movies so far. But let’s be honest: the quality varies. And while X-Men paved the way for other comic book adaptations, the early films didn’t always hit the mark. Continue reading
By chance, out of sheer boredom, I stumbled upon one of the games I had snagged for free on PS Plus and decided to give it a try. My friend and I happened to be looking for a multiplayer game we could play together from the couch. You know, like in the good old days. That game, of course, was Broforce, and it was the beginning of a true romance 😉 Continue reading
Mad Max: Fury Road was fantastic! George Miller hit the mark and now attempts to replicate that success with Furiosa, a prequel focused on one of the main characters from Fury Road. In Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, we see what Furiosa’s (Anya Taylor-Joy) life was like leading up to the events of Fury Road. Brilliant! Continue reading
M. Night Shyamalan comes up with a wild idea every now and then and turns it into a feature film. After the fairly entertaining Old and classics like Unbreakable and The Sixth Sense, it’s now Trap’s turn. A film in which a kidnapper/murderer is trapped “in disguise” during a pop concert, all under the watchful eye of his daughter. What could possibly go wrong? Continue reading
I can’t avoid it; one of my favorite video games of all time is Donkey Kong. Specifically, the one that was released for the Nintendo Game Boy in 1994. This game has everything you could want from a game and more. It amazes me that it gets so little recognition. Even the inferior sequel has already received a full-fledged remake on the Nintendo Switch! Here are ten reasons why you should play Donkey Kong ’94 today. Continue reading
