TWK Reviews Episode 65: A Quick Look at Pokémon Stadium 2

Hello, Hero Club, TDub here and welcome to my review of Pokemon Stadium 2 which was released for the Nintendo 64 back in the year 2000 (insert Conan O’Brien reference here). During this time, Pokemania was running about as rampant as anything could possibly could. If you were alive during this time then you knew the term, “Pokemon” or as many called it, “Pokie-mon”. With the franchise at a fever pitch, there was not only the main handheld games, a super popular anime, and movies, but of course there had…

TWK Reviews Episode 64: The Ups and Downs of Super Mario 64

Hello, Hero Club, TDub here and welcome to my review of the game that changed everything as we knew it, Super Mario 64 which was released in 1996 as the debut game for the Nintendo 64. Prior to this entry, Mario games were seen as relatively simple affairs. You’d go from left to right, reach the end of the stage, and repeat until you finished the game. Sure, there would be a secondary path or two that would lead you to an alternate exit but that was about it. Here…

TWK Reviews Episode 63: The Simple Genius of Star Fox 64

Hello, Hero Club, TDub here and welcome to my review of the 1997 Nintendo 64 classic, Star Fox 64! I cannot tell you how many hours of my childhood were lost playing this one over and over and over again and it’s a shame that they just don’t make games like this anymore and by they I do specifically mean Nintendo. It really does feel like the Nintendo 64 was the era of perfecting a lot of what they were doing on the SNES between this, Zelda, and a game…

TWK Reviews Episode 59: Final Fantasy VII INTERmission is a Fun Expansion

Hello, Hero Club, TDub here and welcome to my review of Final Fantasy VII Remake INTERmission and yes, that is the official spelling of this DLC’s name. If you have watched my previous work then you’ll notice that expansions aren’t normally covered on this show but for Final Fantasy VII, I decided to make an exception to the rule due to the fact that it does link Remake with the upcoming Rebirth. Is Final Fantasy VII Remake required to play this? Not only yes but for console players it is…

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 there, Hero-Club, TDub here and yes, it has been quite a while since my last review. Good reason for that: I am currently in the process of moving which has taken longer than expected. I was, however able to squeeze in one last review before leaving my original abode so let’s get to it.   Today’s subject is none other than the stand alone expansion to Saints Row IV, Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell and to say that it received a mixed response from the fans would be…
