As I said in my introductory post to this series, I started playing Pokemon with the third gen, and as such one would be right to expect a natural bias on my part towards the games of the third generation. However, when replaying Emerald I felt that, although my feeling towards this game were strong, …
The Grinder – Review
So, farewell, The Grinder. We hardly knew ye. (also considered; Alas, poor Grinder. I watched it, Horatio...) Canceled after just one season, The Grinder was a sitcom that many defined as a 'meta-comedy'. That particular term is one that's bandied around a lot these days, but seems quite apt in this case. While seeming to be a …
Pokemon 20th Reviews: Pokemon Crystal
Pokemon Crystal is everything I imagine people remember Red and Blue being. It retains the 8-bit aesthetic and the simpler Pokemon and map designs of yore, but is such a staggeringly better game that I can't imagine why anyone would prefer to play the earlier games in favour of this. Even if you prefer the …

Suits – Review
Spoilers for all 5 seasons of Suits follow Suits is awful. Suits is brilliant. Most people who've seen USA's law drama can understand this sentiment. The 5th season of Suits just wrapped up in what I can only call a shocking final episode (Mike...), and I thought I'd reflect on the show for a bit …
Pokemon 20th Anniversary
In honour of Pokemon's 20th Anniversary today, I thought I'd write a little about my experiences with the series in a little off-the-cuff short post. My first Pokemon games were not the originals from 1996, but instead the third generation; Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire (Sapphire being the obvious choice). These games wowed me so much, …
Aviary Attorney Review
I've tried to keep this review as spoiler free as possible, but if you'd rather go into this game cold, just know that it has my recommendation. And here we are, my first video game review. Reviewing a game is quite different from reviewing TV, and I am quite inexperienced at it, so please give …
