Only last year, we reviewed […]

Welcome to this week’s Ring of Honor review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have a tag team grudge match for the main event that can rival the passive aggressive feelings that Tom Brady has after he just got his ass handed to him by the Detroit Lions. I’m not even a […]

Amusing writing, retro visuals and a truly wonderful chiptune soundtrack combined with a surprisingly lengthy story mode and zany visual gags are on the horizon for you, but can only really be enjoyed with a Dance Mat peripheral. I’m a fan of rhythm games, a few drinks or even just a fun competition with a […]
