Motivational Speech - Overcoming Oppression

Victims don't overcome. They don't rise above challenges or prove to themselves that they are not what others think of them. In their oppression they become the cannots, and can't haves. Instead of going that extra mile they stay behind or apply minimal effort hoping for that kindergarten level gold star that everyone gets just for being there. All while others get the medals, and trophies of true achievement. They get hand outs, and hand me downs instead of working hard to own and earn something worth being proud of.

Okinawa Rush | Nintendo Switch Review

Behold! I present to you an indie game that blends the gore of Mortal Kombat, fully fledged fighting game mechanics, and the staple features of the Metroidvania genre. That game being Pixelheart's "Okinawa Rush". Through two different modes of play including Arcade and Story we find the stage by stage fight for revenge through the perspective of three different protagonists. Each starting off in a different part of the game's given world, and with different objectives in mind. One such character named Hiro finds his wife murdered by the rival Black Mantis ninja clan and his children kidnapped. All for his scrolls on martial arts. Thus he seeks revenge, and to rescue his children. On the flipside of the same story Hiro's brother, Shin, goes to investigate the happenings of the attack on the Okinawa village. Arriving via canoe only to follow the bloody trail in pursuit of the Black Mantis as they take his brother's children in tow. Lastly a female named Meilin enters the scene with her own side story that also starts at a different point of origin, but joins the others in a crossing of paths.

Call of Duty: Vanguard | PS4 Multiplayer Review

Warming up to Vanguard's latest multiplayer experience hasn't been the easiest of tasks. There are some things the game does not initially explain which are crucial to having a more enjoyable time. Though there are plenty of familiar aspects to it, and some slightly enhanced features this latest Call of Duty is a beast all unto itself. Some players will swear up and down that it's the worst game in the series while others might tell you it's alright. In my opinion it makes running and gunning doable again, and camping less of an issue.

Gynoug | PS4 Review

Gynoug, or Wings of Wor was originally a Sega Mega Drive exclusive which was released in 1991 by Masaya Games. The same development studio that made the questionably erotic shmup Cho Aniki. This insane metal as f**k shmup that is Gynoug comes at the player balls to the wall with no explanation whatsoever, much like the studio's other wacky release. There's no story, and no mechanics breakdown beyond the control map menu. All I know, and all most players of the game know is that you are a winged angelic warrior who is out shooting the hell out of twisted creatures. Creatures that include Masonic symbols, no less ...
