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 […]

After having completed most of the content in Plants vs Zombies, I’m still playing the game. As a tribute, I thought I’d take this opportunity to detail my five most favoritest plants and my five most hated zombies. Firstly, the pumpkin. It’s far more expensive than the wall-nut, and has primarily the same effect. However, […]

I’ve never played any of the original Monkey Island games, but I’ve heard people rave about them. Now, it looks like TellTale games, makers of the new Sam & Max and Strong Bad adventure games have a new episodic game series on the boards: Tales of Monkey Island.

Although I no longer play Team Fortress 2, I follow Valve’s updates to the game with a passing interest. The most recent of these is a spy/sniper update, and the hilarity of the update makes the previous comedy of the sandvich look like nothing. In the Meet the Spy video, we got porn featuring your […]

Malaria’s most prominent symptom is sudden-onset dizziness and blurred vision which disappears almost instantly when you take a malaria pill. Still, if it hits when you’re just about to cross a bridge, expect to smash through the guardrail and face a watery death. In Africa, guns rust in a matter of hours. As long as […]

This is the fourth part of my series of Braid hints. It’s not a walkthrough, because simply giving the puzzles’ answers would ruin the game. But I got so frustrated at the game that I gave in to temptation and looked online to find answers to a puzzle in both world 2 and world 3, […]

For those of you like myself who never had the chance to try out Typing of the Dead on a Dreamcast, you’ve missed out on one of the funniest games I’ve ever played. Granted, it’s no Psychonauts, but when you’re being rushed by zombies with decade-old graphics and you have to type “NEED MY PANTS” […]
