Review: Mega Man Legacy Collection – Bustin’ Bots Like It’s 1987

Posted on September 1, 2015 (January 24, 2022) by Angela
Mega Man Legacy Collection

One of my first gaming memories is playing Mega Man X on the Super Nintendo, a game which kicked my 8-year-old ass up and down the block so many times that I can still feel the little blue bootprints. … read more

Local Reviews: Flea Circus

Posted on April 4, 2013 (January 24, 2022) by Asha Pruitt

It’ll make you shimmy, shimmy, ya. Sample-heavy and boogie-friendly, for real, so many samples I won’t bother to get into it. Flea Circus brought the tunesmithism. The lyrics are cookie-cutter and perfect to dance to.  … read more

Local Reviews: Isle of Skye

Posted on April 4, 2013 (January 24, 2022) by Asha Pruitt

Bluesy, folksy and right at home here in Utah, the home of every variation of the jammy-jam band, Isle of Skye is making the soulful kind of music that is more personal expression and less pre-packaged and commercial.  … read more

Local Reviews: L’anarchiste

Posted on April 4, 2013 (January 24, 2022) by Asha Pruitt

If all goes as planned, expect to hear a lot more from the fledgling band L’anarchiste. Eclectic, complex and a big bowl of folk for breakfast, L’anarchiste’s EP is a year’s worth of fine tuning by Robert LeCheminant, current member of Summerteeth and occasional contributor to Fox Van Cleef.  … read more

Review: Ultra Street Fighter 4

Posted on August 31, 2015 (January 24, 2022) by Angela
Ultra Street Fighter 4

Ultra Street Fighter 4 for PS4 was touted as being the “Best Way to Play.” Unfortunately, before multiple patches, this wasn’t the case. Now that the game has been tweaked, patched and cleaned up, it is, in fact, the best way to play. … read more

Review: The Flock

Posted on August 29, 2015 (January 24, 2022) by Asha Pruitt

Now here’s an interesting question: What if every single death that you accrued in a game brought you one step closer to said game’s inevitable termination? It’s a risky move, but such is the case with The Flock, Vogelsap’s atmospheric first-person action title. … read more

Review: The Last Broadcast

Posted on August 29, 2015 (January 24, 2022) by Asha Pruitt
