There’s a demo over at Greenhouse that I really think you should have a look at if you’re looking for something a little bit different than the big blockbusters on the shelves. Bearing the weighty name of On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness, Episode One you can bet that it features big and weighty topics […]

Last night, the gates to Hyboria opened to the Early Access masses and I was among the lucky players to get inside. For those unfamiliar, Age of Conan is an MMORPG five years in the making. The game boasts an exciting and revolutionary combat system and jaw-dropping graphics. Blood and gore and partial nudity have […]

My vocal capabilities, at least in the opinion of SingStar 80’s, fall into the range of Erasure, Flock of Seagulls, and Madonna (in her Material Girl phase). I don’t know whether to be proud or frightened of that fact, but I do know that I then stole the game, a set of mics and […]

My Internet is not cooperating with me, so let’s hope I can get at least this post out there during a window of up time, since I can’t access the Internet at the moment.
I’ll take the opportunity to break down my experiences in The Burning Crusade so far.
Leveling:
After a week, I’ve managed to get my […]

Cooking Mama is a Nintendo DS game that teaches you how to cook! Well, it teaches you how to cook Japanese. Mmmmm. I want sushi now.
I fail at cooking, so maybe I should pick this one up.
You are given real recipes and they can actually be made after you are done playing the game. I […]

I spent my weekend playing Street Fighter. Street Fighter Alpha Anthology actually, which is the latest in the never-ending string of franchise fun. I’ve been a huge Street Fighter fan since the original, which I am both old enough to remember, and also old enough to proclaim was one of the most purely […]

Yesterday I succumbed to the morbid curiosity that is Second Life. Everywhere I turned, someone was writing about it, and I decided it was time to see what all of the fuss was about. So I went to the site, sighed up for their free membership, and got rocking. The setup was amazingly easy and […]

Well, Matt was kind enough to put himself through the torture of BloodRayne and email me a short review of the experience. Needless to say, he wasn’t very impressed with the film. How disappointing - though not at all surprising.
lol was awful. Utterly just…bad.
The best part was Kristanna Loken’s gratuitous if not oddly positioned […]

Well, I couldn’t let Next Generation have the last word. Here’s a list of my favorite games discovered this year. I’d love to hear what yours are. I won’t go as far as to say these are the BEST games of 2005, cause who the hell am I to say that? But here’s my nod […]

Finishing good games is depressing. Sort of like finishing a good book. You know it’s coming, and yet you don’t want it to. I dragged this game out as much as I could, and I’m still sad that it’s over. I miss my character, Ysuran, saying, “Let the shadows take whatever player […]
