Keepers: Super Mario Galaxy

Keepers is a weekly segment in which I discuss games I’ve played that I’ve seen fit to keep after playing. I generally sell a game that I’ve finished, so the only reason I keep one is because I plan to replay the game some day. Classifying a game as a “keeper” is generally a badge […]

MusicCast: Beyond Good and Evil

You knew this one was coming, didn’t you? How could I cover video game music and not hit Beyond Good and Evil? Anyway, there really is some pretty nice music in the game. Hopefully, you enjoy it half as much as I do. Lungfishopolis MusicCast – Beyond Good and Evil

Thoughts on Street Fighter 4

In general, I’m not a big fan of fighting games. In fact, outside of an arcade setting, I suck at fighting games. Using a joypad to throw dragon punches feels as foreign to me as using a spork to cut steak. This is why I bought my SlikStik arcade controller years ago for playing Street […]

Life in a Game

Life in a Game is a YouTube series I first discovered a few years ago. I just started rewatching it, and I’m up to Episode 5-1 now. It’s pretty hilarious. Check out the first episode below.

Waiting to Play

Moving target release dates kill me. Staggered release dates are worse. I’ve only recently realized how many games I’d expected to be playing by now that I’m still waiting for. The one frontmost in my mind is Trine. The game has intrigued me since I first heard of it, but the fact that my wife […]

Free Game Friday Bonus: Daggerfall

Although I’ve already posted a Free Game Friday game for today, I just found out that Bethesda has decided to offer The Elder Scrolls 2: Daggerfall for free download. Since you have to run the game with DOSbox to get it to work, they’ve got a detailed installation guide (pdf) that you can follow. Download […]

Free Game Friday: World of Warcraft Peggle

By now, I’m willing to bet that most people have tried Peggle. While I personally prefer Plants vs Zombies, Peggle is fun enough to hold my attention for a time. If you’ve never played Peggle, now is the time to give it a shot for free. Download Peggle: World of Warcraft edition

A Plethora of Gripes

I’m sure it’s happened to all of us. You’ll be playing a game, and some minor bug or poorly-designed sequence in the game just drives you up the wall. I suppose this is unavoidable. But when I see the same issues time and again in different games, I can’t help but wonder if they couldn’t […]

Thoughts on Fight Night Round 4

I’d let you know my opinion of the engaging Ghostbusters (gave it away a bit there), but I’m sure Greg will let you know his feelings about that game once he’s gotten through it, so I’ll throw in my opinion of a game he’ll be unlikely to comment on instead… It’s easy to take the […]
