Man. That’s a lot of colons. Ever heard of Red Faction? Don’t feel bad if you haven’t. I completely glossed over it myself when it first debuted back in 2001, though hopefully I can rectify that by blabbing on and on about the upcoming third title in the series. Red Faction: Guerilla hits the market […]

Indie: Knytt
How about that headline, eh? Incomprehensible. It’s a piece of work, if I may say so myself, and it’sĀ all for you, dear readers, ye few who haven’t gone off and been productive and stuff. A little mystery never hurt anyone, I’d say, but let’s put aside the smoke and mirrors for now and break out […]
Nintendo Makes Money
Breaking news, right? The sky is blue, grass is green, Qdoba is better than Chipotle — all obvious truths, provided you go outside sometimes and also have a pulse. But an even more obvious(er) truth is the fact that Nintendo, purveyor of magical white boxes of all shapes and sizes, is raking in the dough. […]
OnLive: Dead in the Water?
“…this service has the potential to completely change the way games are played.” (IGN UK) “Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo, look out. Your traditional video game console business model may be in danger.” (CNET) Honestly? I don’t know what to think.
Kongregate: Everyone Likes Free Games, Right?
Spring Break is here. This is awesome. Sun and fun with friends, nine glorious days of freedom from the daily rigors of schoolwork — and the chance to sleep, yes, so many opportunities to spend your new found liberty curled up under the covers. But what about the free time? Those hours not spent snoring […]
Review: Flower (Playstation3)
Guys? We need to talk. I know you like to kill things. Hey, it’s okay — I do too. But sometimes I want to take a break from all the rampant homicide and enjoy something a little more calming. A little more pleasant, perhaps, and stimulating in a way modern gamers are wholly unaccustomed to. […]
Odds and Ends: Gamefly, A Bear and His Bird, Etc.
My tears shall know no end. Ever heard of Gamefly? It’s a game rental service that operates purely online, much like a slightly nerdier version of Netflix. I’ve never used it myself, given the monthly fee, but the service does have one spectacular use: a tantalizing selection of used titles for all consoles, most with […]
Goozex: Funny Name, Serious Savings
Lookin’ sharp there, ladies and gents. You get your shiny new games for cheap, if you’re prudent with those dead presidents, and maybe even spent that freshly-saved cash on a romantic night out on the town with your sweetie. Valentine’s Day is a grand old time, especially if you’re in the market for a cheap […]
Savin’ That Cold, Hard Cash
Gamers know that their particular hobby is an expensive one. A forlorn glance at any shelf of shiny new titles can attest to that — sixty bucks, man, for nearly every new game out on the market. That’s quite a few dollar bills. Maybe too many dollar bills, if you ask me, though it’s hard […]
