You might find it a little bit strange to visit a website dedicated to comic book games and see a headline promising a review for a video game based on a well-loved series of books, especially when it’s already been deliberated on by all major gaming websites, but here me out. As to why I’m…
I’m going to preface my review of The Rocketeer on SNES with a little story from my childhood. It’s Christmas 1992 and I’ve opened all of my presents, save one. So far I’ve gotten everything that I’ve wished for, namely my Batman Returns Bat-missile Batmobile and Batcave play-set; What could be in this mysterious box…
As a kid of around 6 or 7, I had little to no knowledge of The Rocketeer’s history in comics, but what I did know is that there was a movie about this golden helmet wearing character zipping around in a jet-pack, shooting gangsters and saving the day. As you can more than likely tell,…
Green Arrow hasn’t ever had a game to call his own, but with the popularity of The CW’s “Arrow” it wasn’t going to be long before someone capitalized on the character in the interactive space. Luckily for us, it just so happened that the people who would give the Emerald Archer his biggest push in…
The mid-90’s were quite a transition for the video game industry. Not only were the at the time dated 16-bit machines on the way out, but the new console hardware, namely the Nintendo 64, the Sega Saturn as well as the Sony PlayStation were forcibly moving developers out of their 2-D comfort zone into the…

Never one to miss out on…
The relavitely new “Batman: Arkham” franchise is something of an anomloy in today’s video game climate. Normally when a game comes out it’s mere months, or in the case of Assassin’s Creed as of late, right after a new chapter comes out before you’re already hearing about the next installment arriving in a year’s time.…
When it comes to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and video games, the two haven’t gotten along for quite some time. After being a part of some of the best licensed video games ever produced in Konami’s TMNT: The Arcade Game and Turtles in Time, there really hasn’t been a truly excellent game starring the anthropomorphic…
Batman Returns on the NES is a pretty terrific game. Batman Returns on the SNES is a fantastic game. Batman Returns on the Sega Genesis is one of those constant reminders of why I’m forever grateful that I owned a SNES growing up as opposed to Sega’s machine that I wished I had after being…
I love Lego Marvel Super Heroes, completing it 100% on the Xbox 360 and mere months later when I purchased a PS4, I double-dipped on the game, again reaching 100% completion. I also loved it so much that I picked up the 3DS version of the game, subtitled “Universe in Peril,” and I thought it…
