    Digital Down-Low for 04/05/2024: Clever Girls

    If you rank the Ghostbusters movies based solely on the average height of the main cast in each, the results *may* surprise you. So it's a small release schedule this week, but it's definitely leading with strength, as it's kicking off with a game I was completely all in on the moment it was...

    Digital Down-Low for 03/29/2024: I Dare You To Name a Funnier Cat

    Psst, hey kid... you wanna buy a video game? Walking into the bar and decking the single meanest looking guy they can find this week is South Park: Snow Day, the third of the South Park RPGs! The first two were legit good (albeit characteristically crass) RPGs that made good use of the...

    Digital Down-Low for 03/23/2024: Budget Fashion

    I don't want to be caught by the Cancel Police, but I don't think it's controversial to say that a sandwich is a kind of food So half the games I thought are worth mentioning this week are also dirt cheap, and fully half of THAT number is represented by Power of Ten, a space-shippy pew-pew...

    Digital Down-Low for 03/15/2024: Cyber-Astro Terror Awaits!

    I feel that, if I were ever invited to be the special guest on a very special episode of an ABC TGIF sitcom, I would learn a very important lesson. Or else I would teach one. No time for flouncing around like Buster Brown, returned from the grave; this is a big week chock full of video games...

    Digital Down-Low for 03/09/2024: Fireballs and Lightning are Raining from the Sky.

    What’s you‘re favourite stock sound effect. I have to say it’s the “sproi-oi-oi-oing” you get when a cartoon watch falls apart It’s the start of March, which traditionally comes in like a lion, and therefor, we’re kicking things off with Plumbers Don’t Wear Ties: Remastered. The eShop describes...

    Digital Down-Low for 02/23/24: Fate is in the cards

    Okay, there's a Direct that's airing in the middle of me writing this thread, so *for ocne* I feel like I won't be blindsided by a surprise release after the fact. We're kicking off with not one, but two Deck Building Roguelites this week, and, both alphabetically and by release date, that...

    Digital Down-Low for 02/16/2024: This Peace Is What All Warriors Strive For!

    Ahh, it's Valumtimes Week, a time when little archer-babies are blasting people with arrows so people fall in love with them through brute-forced Munchhausen syndrome. So, whether you've got the wuv of your l'il sweetiedumplin, or the aaaaromantic love you'd have for a big bowl of popcorn...

    Digital Down-Low for 01/26/2024: I'm Going on an Adventure!

    Take it from an expert, it's not as easy as it looks to eat an entire fire hydrant. Screeching to a halt outside your house and screaming "Get in the car, loser!" this week is Lil Guardsman, which is a point and clicky talk-em-up style adventure game, inspired by the likes of Papers Please...

    Digital Down-Low for 01/19/2024: Corporate Psynergy

    No matter what lies your parents taught you, I can not stress this enough, snails are simply *not good at jumping*. We're starting off with the Nintendo Switch Online release! It's a release for the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion pass, which costs more than the regular pass but it has far...

    The Digital Down-Low MERRY SQUISHMAS WINTERTAINMENT-STRAVAGANZA 2023

    Ho Ho Ho, Merry Middle of December, when new video game releases largely dry up until the middle of January. So fill yourself with some mustarded' up crumbs of cheese and sell all your hair for chains you can fight off hairy mountain hermits with. That's the true meaning of Squishmas. Jumping...

    Digital Down-Low for 12/08/2023: An Inauspicious Pumpkin

    Du-Wop-bop-a-doo-wop-do-wop-bam-boom Skittering out from under your cupboard to snatch a few crumbs from a cookie jar this week is a surprise release from last week! Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion, a gussied up and slightly re-squiggled up remaster of, you guessed it, Turok 3: Shadows of Oblivion...

    Digital Down-Low for 12/01/2023: I Want You To Tell Your Friends to Mine For Me

    You can really tell how close the Beastie Boys are from the way they finish each others sentences. Showing up, like, a half hour before you expected them to come and just sitting on your couch eating your snacks while you're in the bathroom this week is Gothic II: Complete Classic, and would...

    Digital Down-Low for 11/24/2023: Recursive Polarities

    Do you ever think that some games are a little *too* video? So we're going to kick things off with something that actually got a surprise release two weeks ago, and which I neglected to include last week because that week was particularly dense; can't nobody say that Octo never does his due...

    Digital Down-Low for 11/17/2023: Like the moon over / the day my genius and brawn /are lost on these fools

    I don't care how sharp its teeth are; a venus fly trap simply can not survive the weight of a full grown Italian man jumping on to it from any height. Sneaking in to your house late at night and turning all your TVs to rubber hose cartoons like the Babadook this week is Karmazoo, a...

    Digital Down-Low for 11/10/2023: Harrier? I Barely Know 'er!

    Are... are venus flytraps delicious? Kicking their legs in the air and yelling "I'm booooooored" during the opening text crawl of a Star Wars movie this week is... a game I have no idea was supposed to exist; Nickelodeon Allstar Brawl 2, the sequel to the Smash Brothers alternative that nobody...

    "Snake, have you ever heard of a *Super* Mario Brother?" "Hrrrm, I heard rumor's that the Italian army was working on a means to double the size of their soldiers, but..." "They aren't rumor's any more; after the Berlin Wall fell, the Italian army perfected the technology, and sold it to the...

    Digital Down-Low for 10/20/2023: Red vs. Blue

    I’ve got half a mind to go down to the train yard, find an engine and just eat it, piece by piece So, as noted in the thread title, there’s a tendency among this weeks games to focus on the conflict between the two colours with the most animosity towards each other, red and blue. And so, in the...

    Digital Down-Low for 10/13/2023: You Played Them Before, Now Play Them Again

    Woah, did you see that cat? Partying in through your front door like a guy made of Disco this week is Long Gone Days, and BOY, was that an inaccurate introductory statement this week. This here is an RPG about a guy conscripted into a clandestine military force who, a little late in the game...

    Digital Down-Low for 10/06/2023: A War, Advanced

    Kids today don't appreciate what Real Music even is! Breaking into a highly secure bankvault with a controlled demolition charge and leaving with millions of dollars worth of bearer bonds this week is Silent Hope, an action RPG that informs us that "One day, a terrible calamity struck a...
