I though cakes in Videogames were a lie
Bringing back the horror to survival horror. My RE7 thoughts.
Where I talk about how Capcom smashed my expectations after the trainwreck that was Resident Evil 6
The original ZeldaNESs
Alexis Ibarra-Ibarra OK… I have to admit that I was a terrible Zelda Fan because I called myself one without actually playing the original The Legend of Zelda (1986) nor Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (1987) […nor Skyward Sword (2011) for that matter…]. Nonetheless, I am happy to announce that I am no longer […]
Mini AwesomeNESs! | Nintendo Entertainment System Classic Edition
Alexis Ibarra-Ibarra My thumb is seriously injured. After playing with the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) Classic Edition, I started realizing how marvelous controller sticks are.

Persona 5 Royal Part 1: Context and themes
Where I scream about my fascination with mythology, religion, RPG’s and how it enhances an already amazing game for me.
No End of the World During the End of the World
Alexis Ibarra-Ibarra To Kill a MockingGeek is a HUGE stereotype hyperbole (NO WAY!) that talks about why Geeks are probably the best mentally prepared sector of the global population for facing the end of the world. It also explains why we are very likely to die first or, at best, die anyway. We are indeed […]
Being Sexy for the Sake of Story
Alexis Ibarra-Ibarra First, I am not gonna talk about sexism in videogames here because I don’t like the subject. But, probably a lot of gamers will strongly disagree with me. I love The Legend of Zelda, I think it’s a saga that has developed a broad range of works of art, and it has a […]
