It was a dark and stormy night as the four adventurers made their way up the hill from the small parking area where they had left their cars. The storm front that had engulfed the setting sun earlier in the evening now lashed out with a bolt of lightning that illuminated the house atop the hill before them. Father Rhinehardt lead the group up [...]

Rumor has it that this advice needs to get a bit sexier. We’re going to move on from how to talk to people and get going with how to hook up with them. Now if you are still uncomfortable about talking to people, deal with it. It’s the only way around it, just go and [...]

The hype in a game like Street Fighter IV really has nothing to do with what people are saying. It has to do with all the hype built up from years of an amazing franchise, and the expectations we set for ourselves from our previous experiences. What we liked, what we didn’t like, and what [...]

Just the other night, I was having a discussion with my wife about my gaming habits (read discussion as “receiving a firm, but fair, reprimand concerning the amount of money I spend on little plastic and metal men.”). It got me thinking about the good old days when a board game and a few friends used to be good enough to keep [...]

Addiction – ad•dic•tion – [uh-dik-shuh n] – noun – the state of being enslaved to a habit or practice or to something that is psychologically or physically habit-forming, as narcotics, to such an extent that its cessation causes severe trauma. This is the definition of addiction, something League of Legends has become to me. As the [...]

Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO) games have a certain stigma about them. The fact that you have to spend hours upon hours to level up and upgrade a character’s level/weapons (respectively) doesn’t entirely help selling the game to new users. Take an MMO like World of Warcraft for instance: simple starting zone, an ease to guide [...]

…That Will Make You Really Hard …And Die Happy It would be easy to say crossover video games are the greatest games ever. Well, it would be easy to say that if they were. Sadly, crossover games have never really pushed farther than crossing over a bunch of characters from other games into a whole new game [...]

The term “gamer’ is tossed about quite loosely these days. Not too long ago, I posted an article about being a “gamer” on my Facebook. A good friend of mine commented on the amount of video game enthusiasts that claim to be “gamers”, and suggested that statement was not only incorrect, but a little bit narrow-minded. It was not meant as an insult or a challenge, but as [...]

I must admit that I never thought I’d visit Skag Gully in my life. Skag Gully is a little dirtier that Fern Gully, with a lot less Tim Curry, and a lot more Predator-ish dog things (called skags). With a small number of manufactured copies, most of the gaming population still has yet to visit [...]

This weekend, I got tired of playing BioShock 2 (review to come), and decided to go back and try out Darksiders. Pretty much everything I had heard about this game came from word of mouth, or the back of the box. The game just got lost in the shuffle between all the blockbusters that [...]
