Geek to Geek Reviews

We use a scale of 1 to 5 to grade media. We consider a 1 to be a terrible experience all the way around, while 5 would be something we think everyone should experience.

We try to dive into all aspects of the games in an easy-to-digest format, while providing well-rounded and detailed discussion. Not all reviews can be broken down rigidly, but regardless of format, the grading scale and criteria remain the same.

Bot Gaiden Should Be Great, but Pushes Back Too Hard
