We were big fans of Nioh when we had a chance to preview the game before, and there are some dates coming up that should encourage you to give the game another go if you haven't yet...
Marvel Puzzle Quest and Rübæus - Beeps and Beers
Now, sometimes my pictures of the beer are a little bit on the outdoors-y side of things. While I don't (yet) have my consoles set up outside so I have constant access to them, I am often times grilling out (at least from spring to fall. In the winter? Not so much) and...
Ghostlight to bring Mugen Souls Z to PC later this year
I was a fan of Mugen Souls Z, and I have been wondering for some time now if it might not make its way over to the PC. Well, that question has been answered definitively...
10 Second Ninja X - PS4 Review
10 Second Ninja X tells you just about everything you need to know about the game in its title. The story is about as quick and nonsensical as one would expect, but the game itself is a flurry of reflex-testing goodness that is addictive as its is frustrating...
Inside the Halo Wars 2 Panel at Comic-Con 2016
There was a lot of gaming news at Comic-Con this year, but one of the bits that perked our ears up the most might have been these trailers and this article about Halo Wars 2...
Meridian: Squad 22 - PC Preview
Way back about a million years ago (2014) I was fortunate enough to get my hands on an early preview, and later, a review, build of Meridian: New World. Even then I was quite impressed at the quality of Meridian: New World, never mind the fact that it is developed by one...
WRC 6 First Trailer | Coming to PS4, XB1 and Steam PC
WRC 6 is the official video game of the 2016 FIA World Rally Championship (WRC). It includes the 14 WRC events, all the official WRC drivers and teams, as well as a wide selection of WRC 2 and Junior WRC drivers.
The game is scheduled for this October and will be released...
Pathfinder Roleplaying Game: Ultimate Intrigue - Tabletop and Board Games Review
Admittedly, it has been a bit since we last reviewed a Pathfinder expansion, but I have to say that right off of the bat I was intrigued by this one because it was offering a bunch of new roles to the core line of Pathfinder rules. By and large, I liked what Pathfinder Roleplaying...
Blade Arcus from Shining: Battle Arena is coming soon to Steam!
Maybe I am just being pulled into this due to my long-running affinity for all things 'Shining' games, but this does look like a slick fighter all the same...
Phantom Brave - PC Review
Phantom Brave, which originally launched over a decade ago back on Sony’s PS2, was an experiment by Nippon Ichi which saw the first of its titles that moved away from the tactical grid style that it is renowned for. Having seen a couple of releases and a new storyline of...
Tecmo Koei reveals online features of upcoming Attack on Titan
Given the popularity of Attack on Titan, it only makes sense that the game would also be drawing a lot of attention. This announcement is likely to continue to raise interest in the upcoming title...
Grand Kingdom and Arcadia Ales IPA Variety Pack (Part 2) - Beeps and Beers
Last week on Friday, I began to talk a bit in-depth with my weekend long gaming session with Grand Kingdom - a title that frankly has been one of my favorite games of the year. From the daily check-in items to the campaign to the multiplayer component - there is a lot going...
Ranting about our Personal "What We Consider Terrible Game Mechanics" Part 3 - Gaming Thoughts
We have had a couple of the team members give their take on game mechanics that probably seemed like a good idea to someone at the time - but in execution they just sucked. There are a lot of them out there, and like everything video game related, these are subjective. We...
Criminal Girls 2: Party Favors New Introduction Trailer & Website, dood!
I enjoyed the original Criminal Girls, and we have shared news on the sequel a couple of times already. Well, we have some new odds and ends to share with you as well...
Megadimension Neptunia VII - PC Review
Megadimension Neptunia VII (Vee two) is the latest installment of the Neptunia franchise, a turn-based JRPG with more references than you can shake a dogoo at, and now it’s available for PC. I’m going to have to start off on a bit of a rant here, because I had a lot of issues...
Ranting about our Personal "What We Consider Terrible Game Mechanics" Part 2 - Gaming Thoughts
What are your least favorite mechanics in a video game? We all have certain things that just rub us the wrong way - grind our gears so to speak (heck, for some people - grinding of levels in JRPGs is maddening). Yesterday PY shared his thoughts on the matter, and today we...
Layers of Fear: Inheritance Delves Deep into the Psyche of the Painter’s Daughter
Layers of Fear was a spooky, atmospheric game that I was actually quite fond of in my Xbox One review of the game. I am looking forward to seeing how this follow-up game plays out...
Monster Hunter Generations - 3DS Review
Do you love relaxing trips into nature, to view the local wildlife, watch their habits, how they act, and then wonder how cool they would look as a suit of armor? In the Monster Hunter series, you can do just that, and Generations is a riveting installment into the franchise....
Ranting about our Personal "What We Consider Terrible Game Mechanics" Part 1 - Gaming Thoughts
Hamza and I (editor's note: and Nick chimed in as well) are at it again. Talking one day about what we hate or dislike, to not be overly negative about it, we thought of putting together a list of things that we really don’t like in video games. Not all games get everything...
'BATMAN - The Telltale Series' Steps Out of the Shadows on August 2nd
We cover pretty much all of the Telltale games and for good reason - they are generally awesome narrative experiences. To say there's high hopes for the new Batman game would be an understatement (and with a few of us interested in reviewing it, this might come down to who...
Elite Dangerous: Horizons - Xbox One Review
I fell in love with Elite Dangerous the moment I got my hands on a preview build back in December of 2014 and the trend continued on from our PC review to our Xbox One review. Over the course of the span of the last 18 months Frontier Developments have taken a massive game...
Grim Dawn - Better with a Partner - PC Review
The apocalypse has already come and gone. Humanity stands rather divided in its factions with some still holding on to previous ideals and others simply praying to survive one more day. Being lynched isn’t quite the best way to start your day but unfortunately for you, you’ve...
Bob and Master Raven Make their Grand Entries into TEKKEN 7 at EVO 2016
There are few games I'm looking forward to more than Tekken 7 personally. That being said, I've never been a big fan of Bob, but Master Raven suits my style of fighting a bit more...
Mirror's Edge Catalyst - Xbox One Review
Mirror’s Edge is a title that has a lot of differing views on it. The original was usually either loved or hated, and it all depended on the individual. Besides just general taste, a lot of people couldn’t get their heads around first-person parkour, and it ended up as a...
Suikoden IV - Retro Reflections
I thought all Japanese RPGS have charming graphics, exciting storylines, lovable characters and fun to learn combat mechanics but Suikoden IV on PS2 is an exception. Although it belongs to a well-known series, it offered me a shallow experience...
Eureka! New and Returning Characters Enter the Courtroom in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice
There are several members of the team who adore the Phoenix Wright games, probably Chris H. more than anyone. So he was a little excited at this news...
Grand Kingdom and Arcadia Ales IPA Variety Pack (Part 1) - Beeps and Beers
Similar to my last Beeps and Beers article, this one is going to span a few days and a variety of beers. The game? Grand Kingdom. To say that this game has sucked me in would be an understatement. As of last night when I wrote this, my playtime was nearing four days. Yikes....
Memorable Music in Gaming #27
We haven't had a lot of music articles of late, so we thought we would make it up with a really nice mix of songs from five different platforms. Some are about as classic as consoles get (NES anyone?) while another is from last generation...
Being a Pawn for Scheming Gods Isn't Fun Without Friends in Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse!
Being a big fan of the overall series, I'm looking forward to this upcoming release...
The Technomancer - Xbox One Review
The Technomancer is one of those rare titles that gamers really need to experience themselves; it can fit equally into various camps, like "great," or "horrible" or "it's the video game equivalent of a spaceholder." Set on Mars in the distant future, step into the shoes of...
The Bard's Tale - Retro Reflections
I expected the Bard’s Tale to be an original, fun to play action role playing game but it turned out to be a mediocre Dark Alliance. You control a character who chases women and gold and relies on his musical prowess to survive in battle. How? By summoning creatures who...
New NHL 17 Gameplay Preview Trailer Details On-Ice Changes
We were big fans of NHL 16 last year, but a new year means a new version of popular sports titles, and we are pretty excited to share out this new trailer...
Teclast P98 3G Phablet - Hardware Review
The Teclast P98 3G Phablet proves to be a solid device in that it can do quite a few different things and offer a nice screen with decent size. It is more tablet than phone, though it does have call capability. In truth though, you likely have this item in-hand for a variety...
Odin Sphere Leifthrasir - PS4 Review
Odin Sphere Leifthrasir is the reworking of Odin Sphere which originally launched back on the PS2 and essentially put Vanillaware on the map. They’ve made other titles but even with those and Dragon’s Crown, Odin Sphere was a classic that can now be re-visited with improved...
Win a copy of Lost Sea on PlayStation 4
We recently had a chance to play and review the game Lost Sea by eastasiasoft, and overall PY was pretty positive about the title. Curious to see how good it is for yourself? Why not try winning a copy of your own to play this weekend? It is easy to enter...
GameSir G4s Bluetooth Wireless Gaming Controller - Hardware Review
There are so many different devices out there, and the idea that you need a controller to experience the best of what they have to offer games can be a frustrating experience. That being said, the GameSir G4s Bluetooth Wireless Gaming Controller is incredibly versatile -...

We at Chalgyr's Game Room have a soft-spot for builders, whether that is a traditional city-sim like Cities: Skyline or a blended builder type like Stonehearth. Today we bring you another builder, Parkitect which is currently enjoying an incredibly active Early Access and...

Paragon’s Hero roster grows as a noble force enters the fight
I've been poking at Paragon since it become available on PlayStation Plus, and so far have been enjoying it...
Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII and Red, White and Blue Abita beers - Beeps and Beers
With last weekend being a holiday of the red, white and blue variety, I decided to try out a new (to me) trio of beers while grilling some food and playing the recently released Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII. It was really a perfect weekend for the latter. I had my advance...
Revisit the Madness in Layers of Fear: Inheritance on August 2, 2016
While not a perfect game, I thought the original Layers of Fear was still a very trippy, tense experience worth having. That has me excited about this bit of news then...
Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII - PS4 Review
Say what you will about how strategy games belong on the PC, but Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII makes a solid case for more console titles in the genre. There are too few really good strategy games on the PlayStation 4, but Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII may very...
Ninja Division and Seven Seas Announce Joint Venture, Shinobi 7, and Upcoming Tokyo Ghoul Game
In the past we have covered a fair number of Ninja Division titles, and we have adored most of their board and card games so far. This makes their recent announcement very interesting to our team...
Games of July 2016
It's that time again! Sorry for the slight delay. Things get complicated around holidays but happy 1st and 4th of July to those in North America for both Canada and Independance Days!
This is a bit of a slower month comapred to the last few but there are still a few heavy...
Grammy Nominated DJ Steve Aoki Featured in Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2
We were pretty big fans of the first Dragon Ball Xenoverse, and I am personally looking forward to the second installment quite a bit...
TASTEE: Lethal Tactics - PC Review
TASTEE: Lethal Tactics is a twist on traditional turn-based strategy titles. Focusing more on the off-the-cuff humor, a Team Fortress 2 art direction, and occasionally brutal missions, you will recruit a team of ne'er-do-gooder mercenaries, then plan out and execute tense,...
Paragon Start Pack free to PlayStation Plus members in July
First off, we want to wish everyone a great upcoming weekend. Here in the states we have an extended holiday weekend, so we will be back to our regularly scheduled posting Tuesday morning at 8am EST. In the meantime, we have a bit of news regarding a title we have written...
ZEN Pinball 2: Aliens Vs. Pinball and Devil Dancer - Beeps and Beers
Recently, I turned forty. Despite the fact I am one of the oldest gamers I personally know, turning forty really hasn't proven to be any kind of a big deal. I mean really, when you're a kid it's like every birthday is a big deal. It's sort of like life's way of saying: Wow!...
