So, for my birthday last week, I went ahead and bought Batman: Arkham City. Having loved the original game, Batman: Arkham Asylum, I figured it would be a no brainer that I would love the sequel – and for the most part that’s been true. Still, I had a bumpy ride and wanted to...
I said I’d do it, I warned you – you didn’t listen, did you? Well, now it’s TOO LATE! THE RETURN OF THE PODCAST IS HERE! Episode 9 of the All Things From My Brain Podcast is here. In this weeks massive, DOUBLE SIZED, MAXI-PODCAST, I am joined by a special guest on his...
On the list of things that can distract one from writing the next great American novel comes Cartoon Wars: Gunner. A HUGE fan of the original Cartoon Wars game (I wrote something up on that game last year), I was really psyched when I saw that they’d come up with a new game. With...
I grew up in a mostly Catholic family. I say ‘mostly’ because we were Catholic, but we didn’t really go to church much. Well, I went to church – I had to because it was right there at school and all. Through the 8th grade, anyway. When it was time to begin High School,...
Well. As you may or may not have figured out by now, I am most definitely an Apple head. I’ve got 2 iMacs at home and an iPhone in my pocket and I love to discover new games and apps to play with AND I love to share those finds with the kind folks...
With a crazy amount of Apps available through the App Store (something like 27,000 – and the majority of those are supposed to be games), the iPhone is quickly becoming a viable game platform. The old school gamer in me is relishing the return of the side scroller. Some of my favorite games were...
I love Blizzard, I really do. I think they do so much to keep their user base entertained, engaged and coming back for more. The one area where I feel they fail utterly is: population control. Let’s paint the picture for you: you’ve been working all day, maybe it was a crappy day. You...
So, I spent a good chunk of my weekend playing World of Warcraft – something that hasn’t happened in a really, really long time. I have to admit, the new Death Knight class is mostly responsible – well, that and the fact that I have a character who is actually making money for a...
I have been playing Wrath for a couple days now, and I have to admit – Blizzard has done some pretty nifty things. Some examples come from the Death Knight starting area and quests. The Eye. The Eye quest lets you take a giant floating eye for a ride down to spy on...
So – I got and installed The Wrath of the Lich King. I must say, so far, it’s pretty freaking cool. Meet Kurmudgeon: Kurmudgeon is a level 55 Death Knight (they start at level 55). His story is a simple one in that he doesn’t really have one. I needed an alt and I’d...
