Bloodborne columns and a few 3DS reviews

Its been a weird month for me in the world of video games. Along with a few lighthearted romps on the 3DS, I've been playing one of the most blood-soaked games to come along in quite some time. Check out my thoughts on Bloodborne, as well as those 3DS reviews, below.

Bloodborne: My first hours as a hunter

Bloodborne makes me feel like a kid again

Story of Seasons review: Growing in the right direction

Battleground Z and Ultimate Angler review: New Streetpass games deliver

Pokemon Rumble World review: Let's get ready to Meh

Reviews: Dragon Ball, Dead or Alive and new Zen Pinball tables

March has barely begun and already I'm off to a busy start with a trio of reviews including a pair of fighting games and a pair of new tables for Zen Pinball 2.

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.

Dragon Ball Xenoverse review: Your wish is granted

Dead or Alive 5: Final Round review: One last fight

Zen Pinball Iron and Steel review: Heavy metal

Impressions, interviews and reviews; oh my

February has kept me plenty busy in the world of gaming. I had the opportunity to get in some hands-on time with a couple of games for the 3DS, as well as review an unexpectedly awesome deck-building/dungeon crawler for the PlayStation 4. To top it all off, I had an interview with Roger Craig Smith, the voice of Kyle Crane in Dying Light. Enjoy!

Hand of Fate review: Deck-building an epic adventure

Code Name S.T.E.A.M. impressions: Feeling lukewarm

Dying Light interview: Roger Craig Smith on voicing the game

Pokemon Shuffle impressions: A pleasant surprise

Reviews and column randomness to kick off 2015

It's been a weird month for me, playing games that pretty much range the spectrum.

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

Columns: Shadow of Mordor, game industry resolutions, Destiny

It's still early in the New Year, so reviews haven't gotten rolling just yet. Instead, I decided to do a couple of other non-regular daily news posts instead, including a write-up on the amazing Nemesis system in Shadow of Mordor and a few New Year's resolutions I'd like to see the games industry tackle in 2015.

I also took a look at Destiny, asking myself what about the game keeps me coming back for more.

Gaming Blend columns and lists

As 2014 draws to a close and a new year approaches, I found myself finally getting a break from reviews as the holiday shopping window slammed shut.

That translated into a couple of lists and a couple of columns throughout December, chatting about Hearthstone, the fear of becoming "too old" for gaming, as well as some favorite games of the past 12 months and a handful I'm looking forward to in 2014.

Thanks for hanging out this year and here's to another great one.

Review: Lara Croft and Destiny's first DLC

Another week, another pair of reviews. You'll have to pardon the lack of chatter, as I'm currently fighting off a cold and, therefore, feel like the world is ending.

Fantasy Life, Chariot, Senran Kagura and Digimon reviews

It's been a busy few weeks, with loads of reviews crammed into a pretty short period of time. This includes one of my favorite games of the year so far, Fantasy Life. Man, that game has stolen so much of my free time (and not-so-free time) away.

Okay, no more prattle. Here's a look at my most recent reviews. Dig in!
