So Bad It’s Good: Sonic Adventure 2
June 18th, 2016
Dash The Bomber Sixteen years ago on this day Sega made history with a game called Sonic Adventure 2.

June 14th, 2016

Yesterday in Gaming History: “Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX 2” or “BMX PG”
September 7th, 2015
Colby Primeaux Until its demise in 2004, Acclaim, had the only legitimate claim to be a rival to Activision’s action sports franchise, although with a roster not nearly as deep. What Acclaim lacked in depth, it made up in quality, and yes, I’m pretending BMX XXX never existed. While I thoroughly enjoyed “Aggressive Inline,” and have written […]
