I’ve never played Returnal, so reviewing this game as a sequel isn’t something I can do. I think the last game I tried from Housemarque is Alienation. That title is still about shooting things, but it’s a completely different genre. However, what I do have an...
Loss aversion. The cognitive bias is where it hurts a lot more to lose something than to gain something of equal value. Where a person would rather not risk losing something even if there’s an equally good chance of gaining something just as good, sometimes even more...
At this point, I’ve reviewed several titles from RGG and the Yakuza series. Starting from Lost Judgement, Ishin, Man Who Erased His Name, and so on. It actually places me in this kind of strange place where I know the series quite well, but at the same time,...
What has not been said about FromSoft and the action-RPG legacy they’ve built? The people who brought back simple, but difficult gameplay, and challenged an entire generation or two of gamers to their absolute limit? A company at the top of their own genre would be...

There are not a lot of game titles that have had an appearance on almost every console generation I can think of. And a humble old 2D action platformer happens to be one of them. Shinobi is a series that started around 1987. That makes Joe Musashi, the original...
