Free Game Friday: One Button Bob

One Button Bob is a fun little game with a twist. The entire game is played with one button. What that button does changes from screen to screen. It reminds me of Aztec Adventure, or maybe Jumpman. Play One Button Bob

Dragon Age Online Player Profiles

Although I’m smack in the middle of a big ole writing drought on this site due to real life issues, I thought I’d share my Dragon Age online profile. EA does a lot of stuff that gets on my nerves, and the integration of Dragon Age’s DLC has rubbed me the wrong way a bit, […]

Sweet Sweet Vaporware

Okay, maybe vaporware isn’t the right word for all of these games, although I can certainly apply it to a few here. But there are plenty of games that have been announced but not dated, and I’m eager to play them. Beyond Good and Evil 2 tops my list. After the teaser trailer, we got […]

Has There Been A Year As Good As 1998?

I’ve often heard podcasters and other videogame journalists discuss 1998 in reverant tones. To hear many people talk about it, all the most amazing older games were released in 1998, and no year since has had such an amazing list of titles. Let’s take a look at what games were actually released in 1998. Baldur’s […]

Free Game Friday: Vignettes

For a game that was created from start to finish in 17 days, and was allowed to have no higher than a 100×100 pixel resolution, Vignettes isn’t half bad. Rather than say more, I’ll direct you to the Indigo Static website, where you can read the creator’s commentary. Download Vignettes
