  • Buying New Games Scares Me

    So why bother replacing it?

    More
    This whole week has been a very long and very boring one for me, the main reason being that my laptop is in the shop. My poor HP Envy 14 was suffering from a broken screen. I couldn't even use the thing without plugging it into an external display... More
  • I Took Apart My Xbox

    One of the ever-present joys of owning an Xbox 360 is the failure rate. Red Ring of Death,

    More
    One of the ever-present joys of owning an Xbox 360 is the failure rate. Red Ring of Death, E74, and countless other errors have forced plagued loyal Xbox owners and provided PS3 fanboys with an endless well of jokes. To be perfectly honest, the physical... More
  • The Best Moments in Television

    Lost- Sawyer's backstory

    More
    Games are great. Don't get me wrong, they're how I kill a great deal of time. However, they're not quite the only form of entertainment. Television is a pretty solid way to get entertainment in serial form. Provided that your favorite show... More

    Andy McNamara Is Secretly An Alien

    More
    One of the downsides of trying to write is that sometimes, it just won't come. As much as I like to write, not every day is a good day for producing quality material. Over the past two years of blogging, these ideas have really stacked up. It's... More
  • You Should Read These Books

    The Road by Cormac McCarthy

    More
    After stirring up a bit of a hornet's nest yesterday (who knew people felt strongly about piracy?), I think I'll go back to a safe topic. Like reading. Gaming is by no means the only hobby available to us. There's plenty of other ways to entertain... More
  • We May Have Accidentally Solved Piracy

    23

    Editor's note: It has been pointed out that this paragraph might be a teensy bit illegal. It has been redacted.

    More
    Piracy is something you hear about quite often in gaming, especially on the PC side of things. It's hard to go a week without someone trotting out those discouraging statistics showing that far more people will steal a game than pay for it, or just... More
  • The Golden Compass Is Some Seriously Cool Steampunk

    20

    What do you think? Have you read/seen The Golden Compass? If not, does it sound vaguely interesting?

    More
    I realize my blogs have been on a bit of a book spree lately. It's kind of the theme for this week. Anyway, I was thinking back to one of the better books I read recently. Maybe you've heard of The Golden Compass before. A lot of people view it... More
  • Weird Should Be A Compliment

    18

    Why is that?

    More
    One thing has always struck me when talking to other people. For whatever reason, way too many of them seem to think that the word "weird" is some sort of insult. If you call a movie or a book or a video game weird, it means that you didn't... More
  • Finding Co-Op Partners Is Easy When You Know Where To Look

    So, what happened while I was gone?

    More
    Hello, all. It's me again. God knows it's been quite a while. I think by now this blog qualifies for some sort of award from Saint. It's been a very, very long time since I last posted. If anyone remembers me, yay. For most of you who won't... More
  • The Online Pass Is Terrible (But Here's How To Do It Right)

    19

    More
    One of the more controversial parts of the latest generation of gaming is the advent of so-called "online passes." Invented by publishers in a time of need, they are seen by the industry as a necessity and by some gamers as a majestic injustice... More
  • Should Gamers Buy an iPad?

    That'll Be An Arm And A Leg, Please

    More
    Some of you have probably noticed that I post a lot less these days. Lately a perfect storm of distractions has cropped up to steal my time and make me less productive. The biggest reason is my new iPad. Sure, I could blame other things like midterms... More
  • Mass Effect 3 is Amazing

    11

    Mass Effect 3 is awesome.

    More
    I don't know how to start this blog. To be honest, just writing it is difficult enough. I feel constantly distracted and unable to focus. I can't stop thinking about Mass Effect 3. Anybody who can see that giant ME3 poster above this blog knows... More
