Pokemon Sword and Shield Review

Sam Greenwood

Pokemon Sword and Shield came out just over a month ago. It is one of the best Pokemon games ever. Game Freak did great, they were able to innovate on returning features and creating new ones. The story was pretty good and it has a post-game that doesn’t have pacing issues. Like everything there are issues but in my opinion, the pros definitely out way the cons. Graphics and Sound For the last couple of Generations, Graphics and Audio have been improving a lot. This generation is a huge leap for Pokemon graphics The new pokemon designs are nice and … Continue reading Pokemon Sword and Shield Review

Ring Fit Adventure Review

Sam Greenwood

Ring Fit Adventure is a really great game. It uses the Switch hardware really well and provides a fun way to workout. Graphics and Sound The graphics are lacklustre but that’s the style which I really like. The art style is sort of odd but nice. Nintendo does a great job of getting the most of the low power/low-resolution hardware. Sound design wise its decent, the music is great but the character voiceover is bad but the ring character’s VO is especially annoying, Gameplay Ring Fit is innovative in adding RPG elements to a fitness game. It actually does a really … Continue reading Ring Fit Adventure Review

But the game has stayed true to Pokémon Yellow while improving on it Gameplay In general the Gameplay is really good. It’s a basic Pokemon game so there is not much to say. The game is a little harder than most recent Pokemon games (but I think that the earlier ones … Continue reading Review Of Pokèmon Let’s Go
