It’s 3, three, 3 heroes in one!

Alternate Title: Trine, Trine Trine. Trine is a game that has garnered a lot of critical praise, at least among the podcasts I listen to, and it was completely deserved. Granted, the PS3 release is apparently a buggy mess, so maybe you shouldn’t play that one. But the PC version? Amazing, and completely worth your […]

No, seriously, the very worst title for a solid game.

There is one thing I’ve been doing all day for several days, and that thing is playing Words with Friends. Please note how awful that title is. Words with Friends. Ugh. It sounds like you’re about to confront your friends for something they did wrong. It’s… pretty terrible. However, it is actually a well-implemented Play-By-Email […]

Neither of the two offered control schemes were particularly good, either.

I guess at some point I played Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction. I was really kind of unimpressed. Back a few Christmases ago, Jonathan got me Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters for the PSP, and that was pretty great. Since I hadn’t played one of these games before, the shooting and stuff was […]

Shopping Complete.

CHECKLIST GO. Mom: Check! Dad: Check! Jonathan: Check! Grandpa: Check! Grandma: Check! Shauna: Check! Brer: Checked a long while ago. Friend Gift Exchange Victim: Check! Kale: Check and sent out! Festivus Gift Exchange Victim: Check and sent out! That’s right! I win at Chrissymas Shopping! I am the best! And technically I was done much […]

And in the end…

Hey, my first semester of teaching is over as of 2 PM today. Yay for me? Seriously, though, I think this semester went almost shockingly well. My class did not necessarily do great. I gave out, what, at least five F’s? But those were mostly to people who decided it was not in their best […]

Novelty Twitter Feeds are Novel.

As a twitter user, I follow tweets from people. A lot of these people are internet personalities I like, or people on Talking Time, or even some people I know in real life. However, every once and awhile, a novelty twitter feed comes along that is so consistently entertaining, I must follow it, and laugh […]

The entire reason for this post is to show off a picture.

This is the picture in question. But yeah, so, internet pornographer, fellow Talking Timer, and all around neat dude Momo was doing these tiny little thanksgiving commissions on FurAffinity. I rather like his art style, and I dig his comic, UFO, even though it’s very silly and doesn’t update often. I bet his pornography is […]

Apparently endings are hard.

I wrote an actual professional review of the book, and I was just going to cross-post it, but then I’m like, wait, that’s stupid. If I post the full text here, then I can’t put it up elsewhere. Therefore, you get the very casual review version. Lucky you. I had to read a book of […]

The paths really are uncharted lol!

People are saying that Uncharted 2 is one of the best games of the year. I’ll be honest. I don’t see it. I mean, you know, everything that has been said about the storytelling in this game? Completely true. The voice acting is top-notch, the characters actually act in realistic ways, there’s great dialog while […]

Bow Down Before the Moon Master, Motherfuckers.

For Droib’s birthday, I was attempting to think of something cool to get him. It was then that I remembered that, at some point this year, Droid was in the market for filling up some shelves with some good board games. Now there was an area I knew about! We had also, in our youth, […]
