Way, way back, when I bought Super Street Fighter IV, I did it because a certain Morbid Coffee was planning to host an online Tournament with people from Talking Time. I knew I’d have no chance of winning the tournament, but I figured I could maybe win a few matches and it would be fun […]
I don’t think I really get this month’s Twilight Heroes IoTM. Seppia’s cephalopod skullcap is a bunch of nice enchantments, but at the same time, extremely situational in it’s “cool” factor. It’s main “cool” benefits are being a SQUID disc player and letting you breath underwater. There just aren’t that many underwater zones for that […]
Dustin finally had another Euchre Tournament. Euchre is a standard, but pretty darn awesome card game. It’s simple, but requires a ton of meta-game strategy in order to play it well. There’s luck involved, sure. Sometimes you’ll go all night without getting dealt a decent hand. But most of the time it’s about knowing how […]
If things went well, my computerbox is running Windows 7 now with no issues. Man, it’ll be great if things go without issue, right? Anyway, I’m hoping for the best on that. Wish me luck in the past. In the meantime, while I work on that, you should watch Sky Render’s LP of King’s Quest […]
Dragon Quest 9 is a huge game, with lots of quests and stuff. It is also a game with a class change system, and that means that it is, by default, a game meant to be min/maxed and broke the fuck open by people fiddling with the systems in place to make super-powerful characters. This […]
I’m writing this in the Borders in St. Louis that I often hang out at while waiting for appointments and such. And it just occurs to me how clearly book are on the list of things that I think it would be cool to like, but that I actually don’t like. Okay, that’s not completely […]
As tends to happen, when trolling for a movie to rent, Essner pulled a movie that I had never heard of, but that friends of his had. It was called An Education, and was described to me as a “female Rushmore.” I don’t really think that description is very accurate at all, but it is […]
I saw the baby albino deer driving home monday night. I guess that’s kind of a big deal? Everyone around here talks like this deer is a huge deal. Especially since the all-grown-up one disappeared, probably to too horrible to think about circumstances. It’s nice to know that life goes on. And has genetic mutations […]
I tried, but I just don’t understand Dungeon Solitaire. This game was at the top of the App store lists for card games, and man, do I love card games. It was $2, and I thought, sure, I’ll give it a try. I’m down with card games, and a good single-player one seemed neat. It […]
Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker is, hands down, the best game I have played on the PSP. Certainly the best original game. Peace Walker takes everything that makes Metal Gear Solid great, and mixes it with everything that makes Monster Hunter great, and the child that comes out is fantastic. If you own a PSP, […]
