(AfroGamers.com) Somewhere around the third time the Lion Dance Grandmaster sent me sprawling across the courtyard, something flipped. I stopped trying to beat Phantom Blade Zero and started trying to look good while it beat me. That small mental switch is the whole trick of S-GAME’s big-budget console debut, and ...
(AfroGamers.com) It is the year 12,090, give or take. The world went bad on us a long while back. Science got reduced to campfire stories. Out in the ruins, the junk our ancestors left behind still buzzes and sparks. Somebody comes riding across all of it. Wide black hat. A ...
(AfroGamers.com) So Hood Warfare 2 dropped on October 8, and my timeline split clean down the middle like somebody took a machete to it. Half my people are crying tears, quoting the dialogue, posting clips of those wild shootouts like it’s the funniest thing since Friday. The other half? Big ...
(AfroGamers.com) Nintendo gave us another look at Ocarina of Time last week, and plenty of us are still torn between hope and dread. November 5 is the date, and on that day Switch 2 owners get the classic handed back to them with a lot more than a nostalgia sticker ...

Now Hage’s favorite screamer is on screens ...
(AfroGamers.com) Thirteen years we have been waiting on this one. On October 15, Rockstar finally cracked the door open with the official Grand Theft Auto VI launch trailer, and the whole internet lit back up. My phone was buzzing before the coffee got cold. Group chats went off. Somebody at ...
(AfroGamers.com) Somewhere around midnight, back when the television still had a knob and a prayer, I used to catch these shows after the rest of the house finally gave up and went to sleep. Cowboy Bebop ran low so the volume wouldn’t travel down the hall. That saxophone came creeping ...
(AfroGamers.com) Back in 2014 a goofy cosmic romp ended its very first episode by blowing up its heroes, their ship, and the planet beneath them. The credits ran over the rubble. A week later the same crew sauntered back in, hair intact and swagger somehow louder, out chasing rare aliens ...
(AfroGamers.com) Some shows hand you a glossary. This one handed you a fist and dared you to keep up. Twenty six episodes, zero homework, all attitude. Let me put it plain. Back in 2001 a scrappy series named s-CRY-ed came out swinging, and it had zero interest in handing you ...
