Thursday Night Flashback returns this week

Yes sir, this Thursday at 9pm EST I will resume the classic gaming stream with one of my favorite Gameboy games and what I consider a prelude to the survival horror genre, Alien 3.  I haven't played this game in 20 years and I've only beat it once as far as I can recall.  So this will most definitely be a fun TNF to watch.

GVN Radio Ep 37 is live.



 



In this episode of GVN Radio, Hubbs, Mark and Andrew are joined by Crystal and Sean from Diehard Gamefan. They discuss the new Riddick movie, the Michael Bay Ninja Turtles movie and jump into a discussion of the most overrated games of they have played.

GVN Review: Hyperdimension Neptunia: Victory

Potential Spoilers, you have been warned.

Ah, the Neptunia series. This is one of the games that I play solely for the dialogue. So many in-jokes, so little time. I picked up Neptunia mkII on a whim some time ago and had a great time with it. So far Victory has been more of the same.

Episode 36 of GVN Radio is live!

Warning, This episode contains excessive swearing.

Hubbs, Andrew, and Mark B. talk about the alarming Katie Couric video about gaming creating violence and then share some of their favorite underrated games that time forgot.

GVN Quick Review: Bioshock Infinite (PC)

 

 

It is very difficult for me to sit here and write a review about a great game which has been out for over a month and come up with something that hasn't been already said.  So needless to say I am going to add to the praise that Bioshock Infinite has garnered since it's release.  From beginning to end, Bioshock Infinite is quite possibly one of the greatest highlights of gaming in the past 10 years.  Everything from the run and gun aesthetics, the story progression and the unique world ripe for exploration has exceeded all of my expectations.

GVN end of April

Andrew is currently working on another game for review and I am setting up the next podcast. I'm also working on getting thru Bioshock Infinite(Finally got it) and Ninja Gaien3 Razor's Edge for review. So don't worry there is plenty coming up at GVN.

Diehard Gamefan Review: Evoland (PC)

My latest review is live over at Diehard Gamefan for the nostalgia trip, Evoland.  How is the game that tries to make you play through the evolution of the genre?

"Evoland is a little indie title that chronicles the evolution of the Japanese RPG genre from the monochrome days of the Gameboy to the high resolution days of today.  To call it a game is slightly misleading, as the game is more of an experience of how games have advanced in the last 25 years.  Evoland‘s beginning is rather odd to begin with.  Unlike games like 3D Dot Game Heroes or Half Minute Hero, which provide a full gaming experience in the guise of a retro themed game, Evoland merely provides us with an incredibly short trip that plays strongly to nostalgia."

GVN Review: Etrian Odyssey IV

Potential Spoilers, you have been warned.

I first got into the Etrian Odyssey series about a year or so ago when I picked up EO III. I had been wanting to play it for a while but never really got a chance to before then. I wanted to play a turn based RPG and that's what I got.
