Comparing Final Fantasy XII to Ultima V

Of all the big holiday game releases this year, four have become standouts to me. I prepurchased Dragon Age: Origins in early 2009, back when I thought the game was going to be released in early 2009. I don’t regret that purchase, because the game looks amazing. Mikeyface‘s hype machine has got me sold on […]

Keepers: Baldurs Gate

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 […]

Final Final Thoughts on Fallout 3

The other night I finished Fallout 3, and when I say finished, I mean finished.  Every achievement point gained, all five DLC packs completed.  Are there still a few unnamed quests and places to visit in the Wastelands?  Oh sure, it wouldn’t be a Bethesda game if there weren’t, but for me, Fallout 3 is […]

Fable 2 and Gender Empathy Part 2

Sorry for the continued pieces on Fable 2 but it’s all I’ve been playing outside of Puzzle Quest: Galactrix.  For the record, I’m a woman in PQ as well, however it has no bearing on the story.  The woman in the picture is just pretty to look at.  I’m also a unicorn at times in […]

Fable 2 and Gender Empathy

For some reason I usually play as women when playing RPG’s.  Maybe it’s because I’m a man in real life, so playing as a woman represents a new experience.  Maybe it’s because if I’m going to be staring at someone’s ass for 40 hours, I’d prefer it to be a female one.  I truly have […]
