Anyone who has played World of Warcraft will admit to the game’s undeniable, alluring charm. That coin jingle every time you loot a corpse. That dopamine-inducing yellow beam of luminous light upon leveling up. Those iconic sights and zones that serve as friendly reminders of all the time spent – for better or worse – in the…

Battlefield 4 is something special
Despite garnering the attention of gaming sites everywhere for being plagued with various glitches and bugs, I’m having a hell of a time with Battlefield 4. Bad Company 2 was the game that really made me fall in love with the series. It was intense, chaotic, and loud, with soldiers screaming and cursing loudly set to a backdrop…
BioShock Infinite is the stuff of legends
BioShock Infinite seems like a pretty swell game so far. I was late to the party with the original, but after catching up, I found it to be one of the best modern-day single-player shooters out there. BioShock brought plenty of creativity to the table, with hulking Big Daddies and the awe-inspiring, DNA corrupting plasmids.…
Gears of War Judgment multiplayer impressions
After posting a rather lengthy write-up about my hopes and fears for the Gears: Judgment release yesterday, I got a good amount of time in with the game’s multiplayer. Such a good amount of time, in fact, that I put off doing this post until now – probably a good sign, eh? Well, yes and…
Gears of War Judgment rocks the boat with controversial changes
So, here’s something exciting – Gears of War: Judgement comes out tomorrow! Wasn’t that fast? First of all, let me get something straight, especially because I don’t think I’ve ever written about Gears before on this blog. I friggin’ love Gears of War, but I’ll be honest here, because the series doesn’t exactly deserve applause all…
New TMNT game “Out of the Shadows” announced, Raphael looks like a watermelon
So, while I was trying to figure out just how I would tackle my seemingly insurmountable school workload, Activision announced a new TMNT game. Why am I never around when these things happen? Luckily, I saw a tweet about it, did a quick google search, and was presented with this: Now, obviously I’m a big…
Backloggin’ – Metal Gear Solid 4: A thrilling but somewhat unfulfilling finale
The final chapter, the final confrontation – the final moments of a legendary hero. On this week’s backlog update – this is Metal Gear Solid 4. BUT FIRST! Roll out the obligatory numbers. This week’s stats: Last week’s stats: Metal Gear Solid 4 (PS3) I’ve gone on and on in previous blog posts about how…
Backloggin’ – Zombies and Demons! (Left 4 Dead 2, Doom)
College class cancelled and three hours to spare? Write about video games! This update will be another short one, because school pretty much kicked my ass around like a hacky-sack this week, so all I really did was finish up The Ultimate Doom and Left 4 Dead 2. What is there to be said about those games…
Backloggin’ – Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater
I seriously think just starting these things off is the most difficult part – I always feel like I have to have some witty shit to say. But I never do, so uh… hi. Wanna read about video games for a bit? This one I’m going to talk about right now has guns, cardboard boxes…
Backloggin’ – Hard Reset
So yeah, this update should have been out yesterday, but that… didn’t happen. I blame a fresh college term and my often inhibiting procrastination habits. But hey – for once, this update is short n’ sweet, clockin’ in at only two games. It’s weird because I should be actually playing more video games since college just…
