Platform reviewed:  Nintendo Switch 2 Also on:  Nintendo Switch, PC (Steam) Price: $7.99 One game that holds a special place in my heart is Bases Loaded. While we had NES Baseball and RBI Baseball on the NES, Bases Loaded felt like a move toward a more realistic baseball game. The player models were less cartoony, the presentation felt more TV-inspired, and the fact that players would rush the mound after getting hit by a pitch made it feel like something new. As a kid, it fe

It's time to sit back and relax with your favorite games and the Gamerheads Crew as they give us a look into their gaming line-ups this first weekend of the new year!

Even with how difficult Flick Shot Rogues is, I had a really fun time with the game. After each run, I wanted to jump right back into the foray, hoping that the next attempt would be more fruitful or that I’d learn something from my previous run. The playing field can become crowded very quickly, which adds to the challenge, and the boss battles are pretty brutal. That said, pulling off a win feels great.

Over the last year, we reviewed quite a few games, but there are a few that really stood out for us. These are the games that earned a score of an A - or higher, officially making them part of our Gamerheads Select category.  Below are the games that earned a place in our 2025 Gamerheads Select category. They are in order of when we reviewed them. 

Platform reviewed:  Nintendo Switch 2 Also on:  PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S Price: $49.99 One of my favorite games is Fallout 2. The amount of choice it gave me as a player always really appealed to me. Warhammer 40k: Rogue Trader recaptures that same magic. The amount of meaningful decisions, the depth of its RPG systems, and the tactical combat all come together in a way that is incredibly satisfying to play. It is one of the best CRPGs I have played. Unfortu

Happy weekend, warriors! The Gamerheads Crew is back with their weekend line-ups! Let's take a look!

Platform reviewed:  Steam (PC) Price: $19.99 Is Netherworld Covenant a roguelike soulslike or a soulslike roguelike? Either way, the game introduces some neat mechanics that I haven’t seen done in either genre. And for those concerned that roguelikes and soulslikes are typically extremely punishing, I’m happy to report that Netherworld Covenant, while challenging, doesn’t feel like it’s out to punish players. With a bit more polish, the game could have easily landed among my

The potential for Cloudheim is huge, and there’s already a solid foundation here for the developers to build upon. I really hope this game gets the time it needs to take what is already a fun and engaging Early Access experience and turn it into something truly great.

Platform reviewed:  Steam Also on:  PC (Steam),   Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S Price: $14.99 GIGASWORD is a side scrolling 2D puzzle action metroidvania game where I played as Ezra,  a thief in the city trying to survive, when the human population is on the brink of starvation. I was tasked with ascending the ancient tower in search of a crystal called Gnosis. Helping me was the Gigasword, the titular weapon of the game, a massive sword about the size o
