Seeing has how it’s been awhile since I last gave an update on my progress with The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, one might think that, surely, I must be almost done with the game! Well, that someone would be quite incorrect, sadly. Indeed, much of my most recent time was spent with Red Dead…

Newcomer Alert: More Than Halfway Through Sly 3
Why, hello, everyone. While I originally intended on writing about my thoughts halfway through my playthrough of Sly 3, this didn’t quite happen. I am about 48% through the game, but I have clearly made it much closer to the end than I realized when I ended up back on Kaine Island where the prologue…
How Have You Changed? A Response.
Earlier this week, my colleague, Hatm0nster, wrote up an intriguing and inquisitive article titled How Have You Changed? If you’ve not read it, I highly suggest doing so before moving on, because what I have here is a response. A long response. One that started out as a comment to his article, only to develop…
Newcomer Alert: Initial Thoughts on Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves
Two games from the original Sly Cooper trilogy down, one more to go. That’s right, everyone, I have just started Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves. I am writing this particular post two hours into the game rather than just the usual hour, and…I’m not quite sure what to say yet. Okay, first off, this game…
How Have You Changed?
Do you feel like you’ve changed as a gamer? Not in terms of the amount of time playing games or other cursory elements like that. We’ve all had changes in our lives that have caused us to shift our gaming habits. I mean do you, at your core, feel like you’re a different type of player than you…
Mass Effect and that “Welcome Home” Feeling
Despite having a very full gaming plate right now (I’ll be back someday soon with more Twilight Princess), my recent experience replaying Red Dead Redemption seems to have infected my gaming motives, as I now very strongly want to revisit other “favorite” games from my past. To that end, I recently started playing Mass Effect….
Newcomer Alert: The Completion of Sly 2: Band of Thieves
I am now officially halfway through the Sly Cooper series! I recently completed Sly 2: Band of Thieves and have gotten 100% both in the game itself and in collecting all of its lovely trophies. If only these were real trophies, I’d have quite the collection by now. Since my last update, I completed both…
Newcomer Alert: Halfway Through Sly 2: Band of Thieves
Well, I’m now 49% through Sly 2: Band of Thieves and have recently started chapter 5. I explored a nightclub in Paris and defeated its owner, Dimitri the iguana (since when are iguanas purple?), the first member of the Klaww Gang (which I’m certain bears no relation to Klaww from Jak 1…). I braved the…
Still Wanna Catch ‘Em All!
It was just about 20 years ago now that gamers were introduced to the world of Pokemon. It’s arrival at the time was probably just as exciting as any other new release, but little did we know that Pokemon would become so much more than a one-off adventure about a 10-year-old collecting strange monsters. Somehow,…
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars — A Nintendo DS Favorite
This month, we’re taking some time out to look at our “favorite” games to see if they remain true favorites. While my post about a “favorite” game that I played last month is forthcoming, this week I wanted to share an article on Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars (2009) that I wrote for Geek Force…
