ROWYCO 8 – Ys Seven – Disc One

I’m going to go ahead and, if you will, break the fourth wall on this post. I tried writing this in the third-person like I normally do, but it just never felt right, no matter how many times I attempted to fix it. This episode is a little different. Dominic and I are not just […]

I guess being a bit of the odd duck on the site, I’m going to throw in a couple of retro releases. I have more than five games I want to list, but without the retro releases to round it out, I’d have some oddball number and it was going to drive me nuts. Much […]

64 – R-Rated As F***

Jason Arriola and John Lucero gush about Yakuza 0 because they both have a pulse, so why wouldn’t they.
