TWK Reviews Episode 67: EA Enters the Ring with WCW Mayhem

Hello, Hero Club, TDub here, and welcome to my review of Electronic Arts’ debut in the world of professional wrestling video games aka WCW Mayhem. Yes, we’re talking about THAT EA. The one that forced microtransactions into games. The one who many believe to be the most evil video game company in the world although I personally think that Activision-Blizzard have been doing one heck of a job catching up in that department. However, I digress, as not only is this EA’s initial WCW game but also the first without…

TWK Reviews Episode 66: WCW/nWo Revenge is THE Sequel

Hello, Hero Club, TDub here and welcome to my review of WCW/nWo Revenge which was released for the Nintendo 64 back in the year 1998. To say that WCW was en fuego during this time would be an understatement. In fact, both WWF and WCW were firing on all cylinders as far as fan support was concerned. WCW had nWo Hollywood, nWo Wolfpac, Diamond Dallas Page, Sting, Goldberg and a whole load of cruiserweights putting on classics whilst WWF were running wild with the Corporation, Steve Austin, the Ministry of…

TWK Reviews Episode 57: Final Fantasy 7 Remake is Almost Perfect

Hello, Hero Club, TDub here and welcome to my review of Final Fantasy 7 Remake for the Playstation 5. The original FF7 is among my absolute favorites so you can bet when the much anticipated remake was announced that I was beyond hyped for its release.   In my opinion, Square-Enix did a stellar job remaking it or at least remaking the first few hours and turning them into their own full blown RPG. Is there padding? Yes, but in the end I feel like it all works out. However,…

Hello, Hero Club, TDub here and welcome to my video regarding the mini-games from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for the Nintendo 64 or in this case, the Nintendo Switch’s Online Expansion Pass.

How well do they hold up after twenty plus years? Only one way to find out and that’s to play them…

Hello Hero-Club, TDub here, and welcome to my review of WWE’s annual video game release, WWE 2K23! For the first time since the series’ return with, WWE 2K22, 2K has managed to release a yearly sequel. Interestingly, with the return to the usual format, the game, itself has been seen as quite the big deal.   For those unaware, WWE 2K20, was the culmination of every bad decision that 2K could possibly make. As a result, WWE 2K20 ended up becoming the most glitch filled, high-budgeted wrestling game in recent…

TWK Reviews Episode 49: Portal 2 Still Holds Up

Hello, Hero-Club, TDub here once again with a video game review! For this time around, I am taking a look at the 2011 classic from Valve, Portal 2! For those unaware or too young to know, before creating the Steam store, Valve used to regularly develop and publish video games. Not only that, but almost every release would become an instant classic. For example, Half-Life, Half-Life 2, Left 4 Dead, Counter-Strike, Team Fortress 2, and Portal were those games.   To say that Portal took the gaming world by storm…
