So, Pokemon. I used to live, breath, and speak Pokemon all the time – and in some respects, I'm still very much addicted to the franchise as much as I think the quality has dipped recently. When I was younger, I was that guy that...

Ahoy hoy, everyone! It’s sure been a while since I’ve updated my blog, eh? And the reason for that is…well, frankly, wanting to write something and actually coming up with things to write about is difficult. And, in fact, I rarely spend m...

(A little note before I begin- firstly, no pictures, because I couldn't be bothered to do that today. Secondly, yeesh, my first blog since June? I've been typing things up since then, but for the most part I've just not been satisfied with ...

One of the most exciting games coming from this E3, and one I’ve been personally looking forward to for a couple of years now, is the new Super Smash Bros. game. Or rather, games- One for Wii U and one for 3DS. While you can debate the me...

DISCLAIMER: I do not use Steam, nor have I played Mutant Mudds. Jonathan Holmes recently put out an article on Mutant Mudds’ trouble with Greenlight. In it, he asks, among other things, why a person would not vote “Yes” to see the game on ...

Ah Dragon Ball Z. Arguably the most famous anime of all time (it’s only real competition being Pokémon), and still insanely popular. There’s something cathartic about watching two grown, muscular, shirtless men beat each other…that came out...

Y’know, I’ve been trying to write something for a while. Anything, really. The hardest parts of these blogs are the intros. A half dozen unfinished word documents and several ideas filed away later, this is the best I’ve got: Pokémon predic...

With all of this news of people enjoying the heck out of their new-fangled screened controllers with that fancy internet connections of theirs, it’s only fair that I too got to enjoy such amazingness. So, without further ado, here’s my bran...

(Sorry for how absurdly tall this image ended up being!) If you read my blog before, you can probably tell I like Pokémon. If not, well, I like Pokémon. A lot. I decided to draw myself in the style of one of my favorite artists, Ken Sugi...

Before I get started, I want to say that this was my first time playing any of the Epic Mickey games and the first time I played any side-scrolling Mickey Mouse game. I started this demo with a clean slate, so to speak. I didn’t have any pr...

Recently, I’ve noticed something odd about my gaming habits. For the past few years, I’ve replayed Pokémon Red annually. In between those sessions, I’ve replayed Pokémon LeafGreen. During this span of time, I’ve also replayed some other Pok...

Whenever the topic of backwards compatibility comes up for a system such as the PS Vita or the Xbox 360, inevitably someone will ask “what’s so important about backwards compatibility?” Now, as someone who hoards their old systems (in fact,...

Check out Extra Credit's take on this first: http://extra-credits.net/episodes/spectrum-crunch/ This is big. Like, really big. More important than video games big. This won't just affect online gaming, but all internet use. Problem is...th...

Hopefully many of you here are at least familiar with Avatar. Maybe you are currently watching the new series, like I am! We all agree that The Legend of Korra is freaking amazing, right? It’s pretty inevitable that they adapt it into the g...

The Legendary Pokémon are an interesting facet of the Pokémon games, if only for the fact that they become the face of their respective games, driving a marketing blitz of new information and movies starring them. As a gamer who’s dedicated...

I love Smash Bros. I also enjoy seeing hacks made by the fans for Brawl. My personal favorite before this was Brawl Minus- completely bat**** insane, and I love it. But, I finally got to try out Project M. Was it worth the wait? Yes, for th...

I am a Kirby fan. The pudgy pink cream puff has always brought a smile to my face, even when playing one of his bad games. Yet, despite all of the evolution he has experienced, from using items to gaining abilities, ditching animal friends ...
