Reviews: Dragon Ball, Dead or Alive and new Zen Pinball tables
You know I really dig a game if I keep returning to it following a review write-up and, for the record, I'm still pouring hours into Dragon Ball Xenoverse. It's like I'm getting to live out fantasies from after school cartoons way back in the day.

Reviews and column randomness to kick off 2015
In the past few weeks, I've poured hours into a last-minute effort to grab Destiny's best gun, reviewed the cooky RPG, Citizens of Earth, as well as the old-school dungeon crawler, Brandish.
Then, I capped all of that off with a review run through Dying Light.
So, yeah, it's been weird.
Icebreaker: My tragic quest for Destiny's best gun
Citizens of Earth Review: Successful first term in office
Brandish: The Dark Revenant review: Dungeon crawling goodness
Dying Light impressions: So far, so good
Dying Light review: Zombies done right
