(AfroGamers.com) I’m not the biggest horror fan but I dig zombie films and comics. Video games—it depends. A legendary series like Resident Evil never really appealed to me—then again, I never gave it that strong of chance. It’s odd because I gave Dino Crisis a go, beat it and the ...
(AfroGamers.com) The worlds of Super Mario always make me wonder about how is anyone living and thriving here? It’s going to be a bit of a thing, so grab a snack and a drink. I’ve been playing Super Mario games since the late 1980s and when you’re a kid; new ...
(AfroGamers.com) For a couple of months, I got back into Warframe, a third-person shooter from Digital Extremes. The game came out in early 2013, over a year before Bungie released the first Destiny game. I mention Destiny because Warframe comes off as something of a third-person version of Destiny—which is ...
(AfroGamers.com) EverQuest is one of Sony’s longest-running franchises and pretty much the only one that has always been active. It’s an older MMORPG meaning it’s a truly living game.

(AfroGamers.com) Ubisoft’s 2012 release Assassin’s Creed III is a title with a mixed reaction and while I typically don’t check impressions on a game until I’ve finished it, ACIII was an interesting case because early on many were annoyed by the game. Now, I tend to enjoy any Assassin’s Creed ...
(AfroGamers.com) A game I often think about are 1990s Cruis’n games from Williams. I knew Williams more from its titles being more arcade-y and typically published by Midway Games. Cruis’n USA and World. At that time Midway was doing very well with some cutting-edge arcade series like Area 51, Mortal ...
(AfroGamers.com) The year was 2020 and one of the games I wasn’t paying attention to was Tripwire Interactive’s Maneater. I remember seeing Maneater on the PSN and not being particularly interested in playing an action game featuring a shark. I didn’t even think it was about hunting the shark, just ...
(AfroGamers.com) You know, a 90s series that I often pontificate about is Cool Spot. It was released and developed by Virgin Games in 1993. This was a platformer and adaptation of the old 7 Up commercials from the time featuring the Cool Spot mascot. A Lot of Work for a ...
