4. Metroid Prime 


    After 6 years in development, Nintendo has finally released a trailer of the remake of its first installment of the Metroid Prime series which could be a teaser for the widely anticipated Metroid Prime 4.

The Fitness Boxing We've All Been Waiting For (Fist of the North Star Review)

Fitness Boxing Fist of the North Star (Review)     Over the weekend Nintendo released its third game of the Fitness Boxing franchise. Fist of the North Star is the Fitness Boxing we’ve been waiting for. This new installment incorporates characters from the 1986 Mark III video game Fist of the North Star.       Nintendo attempted a sequel to Fitness Boxing which seemed more like an overpriced DLC. Fitness Boxing 2: Rhythm and Exercise included two brand new instructors and a new playlist of music.

Minecraft Dungeons

Minecraft Dungeons Being a fan of dungeon crawlers since the classic Gauntlet Legends, you could imagine my excited when I found out that the creators of Minecraft had created a dungeon crawler within the Minecraft universe.   I first started playing Minecraft in 2020 on my MacBook. Only playing in creation mode, I would tunnel through mountains and caverns, creating my own kind of dungeon crawler experience. Fast forward, 3 years later, my dream comes true when I find out that Minecraft Dungeons was created for RPG gamers like me who wanted a Minecraft game with a Diablo feel. Finding loot, killing zombies and customizing my character build, Minecraft Dungeons gives me all the feels of a classic top/bottom dungeon crawlwr. Unlike, Diablo however, this game is for the whole family to enjoy. Minecraft Dungeons is the perfect game for both advanced RPG gamers and first-timers.   Writer KhanOfCons  khanofcons@gmail.com
