My Avoision

Yes I’m still here despite not, you know, being here. Like Greg, I find myself assaulted by a rich library of games this season, many of which I can not play.  Well, that’s entirely not true.  I choose not to play them because I can’t spend enough time with them.  Well, that’s also not true.  […]

Free Game Friday: Dimensionpod

Yeah, it’s another Kongregate browser game. This one’s called Colourpod 2: Dimensionpod. It’s simple, but the complexity slowly grows, and it gets addictive. It’s got the basic look and feel of Asteroids, but your pod is always centered in the screen, and the shapes fly inward at you. The goal is simple: destroy colorless blocks […]

Mapping Controls to Mouse Buttons in Fallout 3

This is something that had driven me absolutely nuts. When I started playing Fallout 3 on Tuesday, I decided that it would make sense to map the V.A.T.S. key, which defaults to “V”, to my mouse 4 button instead. After all, I bought this nice fancy mouse specifically so I could do stuff like that. […]

Poopsocking

When the sun sets over Lungfishopolis, the white glare of CRT and LCD monitors can be seen shining out of every window. Over the years, our people have spent more hours in front of those monitors than some of us have spent sleeping. We look back fondly on those many hours and weeks spent absorbed […]

Free Game Friday: Dungeon Defender

I’ve always been a huge fan of Bullfrog’s Dungeon Keeper. And while the official sequel was a failure, we’ve always got Dungeon Defender to fall back on. Dungeon Defender quite obviously draws its roots from Dungeon Keeper. You play the overlord of a dungeon, which you can dig out using imps minions. You can use […]
