Too Much Awesome

Every series seems to have its Black Sheep. For one reason or another, the go-to answer for the worst game in the Zelda series, besides the Zelda games on the CD-i of course, tends to be Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. Why exactly does this title get so much ire from gamers and the [...]

We here at Toy-TMA do a lot of writing. Sometimes we do more writing than usual, but we’ve been very good about creating content every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at a consistent pace. Thankfully, a lot of our favorite articles have been viewed over and over again, and even have comments in staggering numbers for [...]

It’s been a whole year and a half since my very first guest article here at Toy-TMA, and I realized that I have some serious unfinished business to attend to. I debuted on this site with a Retrospective on the classic Crash Bandicoot Trilogy, which still stands as my all time favorite video game trilogy [...]

I am, quite simply, a Mario fan through and through. There hasn’t been a Mario game I haven’t liked, even Mario spin-off games like the Party series or any of his sports titles (perhaps not counting Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games). But after playing Super Mario 3D Land and loving it, I started [...]

One thing I would like to make clear here at Toy-TMA is that I am just as excited for the next big Legend of Zelda title as anyone. It would not be much of a stretch to say I was first hired here by my editor Mr. Pranger to write as an advocate for Sony [...]

Recently, we have been experiencing a huge overhaul in HD remakes. Last year, Sony gave us the God of War Collection and the Sly Collection, and is set to deliver an Ico/Shadow of the Colossus and God of War Origins collections in the near future. At this year’s E3, Microsoft also debuted their Halo Combat [...]

Minecraft. You’ve heard about it, read about and maybe even tried it. Minecraft is to PCs what Angry Birds is to the iPhone…a simple game that everyone talks about and can’t stop playing. I took a glimpse at Minecraft several months ago and wrote it off. Now, however, I’m changing my tune.

“There are two different kinds of thieves in this world: those who steal to enrich their lives, and those who steal to define their lives.” For those of you who haven’t heard this, than clearly you have not watched The Italian Job and you are missing out. However, if there was a video game character [...]

In 1989 the first good Batman movie was in theatres and I had a full blown case of Batman fever. Along with my Batman breakfast cereal, Batman piggy bank and my Batman frisbee, I had the Batman game on original Nintendo. Like many NES games of the time, it was a blind leap of faith [...]
