Image captured by Josh Horne It seems a long time ago now when video game rental stores were still commonplace. I remember as a child there used to be a small rental store, which went by the name “World of Video”, situated on the opposite side of the area of town in which I lived. Every…

[REVISITED] The Duck Discusses the GCN, PS2, and XBox Generation: Part 1-The Cubester
Hello and Happy Year’s everyone! While the general saying of this time of year might go something like “In with the new, out with the old,” here at UWG, we’re all about celebrating our storied past. Every Thursday this month, I’m going to present to our wonderful readership a post from our archives. UWG has…
Kingdom Hearts 2.5 HD ReMix: Return of the Feels
Image by Flickr user: mattjerome_88(cc) (Modified slightly by Hatmonster) Kingdom Hearts 2.5HD ReMix has finally arrived, and just like the last one it’s definitely something I would recommend to any fan of Kingdom Hearts, well to those who haven’t already gotten their copy at least. Even if you still have your original copies of Kingdom…
The Best (and Worst) of The Wolf Among Us
Image by Flickr User: BagoGames (CC) The first season of The Wolf Among Us felt absolutely brilliant! The story was engaging, the characters were interesting, and the gameplay kept me on my toes. I could not wait to talk about this game again once I had finished the final episode of the first season “Cry Wolf”. However,…
One Week On- EA Sports UFC
Image by Flickr User: Joao Paulo Lages I’m not quite sure why, but i’m always a sucker for these wrestling type games. I think it goes back to my younger days when i was a big fan of the WWE, but even now, about 10 years on, i still really enjoy the games, whether it…
The Far Too Realistic Traveling of Quest 64

There’s just something great about games that empower the player to be something more than ordinary. Sucker Punch’s inFAMOUS franchise is at it’s best when giving players the tools to go and do what they want in a big open city. With the highly anticipated Second Son now on store shelves, the franchise finally moves into…
UWG Top 10: #6 – Why is Halo 3 so Good?
That phrasing really isn’t appropriate. A more suiting question might be, why isn’t halo 3 so good? Halo 3 offers a stunning campaign with refreshing storytelling and a competitive yet ludicrously fun multiplayer element. That is what I salivate over when it comes to first-person shooters, and I think I speak for a large portion of…
Community Post: Why Not Remember Me?
Image by Flickr User: RMA2kay4 It seems we all have our guilty pleasures don’t we? After the stellar start we’ve had from the Duck and Chip, I hope to continue to the trend! Read on for more Tales of the Slightly Embarrassing (but not really 🙂 )! — There’s something so fascinating about the idea of memories….
Community Post: I’m a Fool for Deadly Premonition
We all have games that are foolish to love; those comfort titles that the general public regards as less-than. We players can look past these games’ warts and rough edges to find a worthwhile experience in spite of what others may think. To start the month of April off with a goofy bang, those of…
