Day 11 in the 30 days’ worth of video game topics I began writing about…probably over a year ago is my gaming system of choice. It’s a pretty straightforward question, and that is why I want to write about more than said console’s amazing selection of games and the other obvious things one would typically…

The Fateful Day: What Happened to My SNES
I was long proud to be one of those few lucky individuals who still had a working Super Nintendo. The old gal served me for a good two decades before I started to notice something was a bit off. The SNES was always a pretty reliable console. It rarely froze. On the large part, it…

[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.

The Duck Prepares for the Wii U
I’m considering getting a Wii U in the near future, and yet, to be perfectly honest, I don’t really want one. I don’t see anything too appealing about it, and I’ve been largely uninterested in new video games being released anymore (which is why I’ve been busy playing games from 15-20 years ago as of…
The Duck Discusses the Wii, 360, and PS3 Generation: Part 3-Sony Still Can’t Think of Creative Names
Today is the last day of my series of posts on what I like and dislike about the last generation of consoles, the Wii, the 360, and the PS3. While I loved the PlayStation 2, I actually didn’t have any intention of getting the PS3 because Naughty Dog was still refusing to make any more…
The Duck Discusses the Wii, 360, and PS3 Generation: Part 2-360 Boxes

The Duck Discusses the Wii, 360, and PS3 Generation: Part 1-Wii Look at the Wii
You all remember how, when this blog first got started, I wrote a series about the pros and cons about the GameCube/XBox/PlayStation2 generation, don’t you? Well, actually, you may not because that was a while ago. But, believe me, I did. And now that I have had a good amount of experience with the last…
The Eighth Console Generation: Will the Duck Buy…the Wii U?
With a new generation of consoles upon us, every gamer has to think about if they’ll be buying the new consoles and which ones. With unpleasant rumors circulating about and consoles seeming to emphasize games less and less, it is more than just a matter of buying a new console that has the games you…
Today in Gaming History: 10/4/2013
October 4, 1993: Panasonic 3DO released I don’t know about you, but whenever I hear this string of one number and two letters, I become just a little sad. The oft-maligned 3DO was released into what would become a very successful console market that would soon see the likes of the PlayStation and the Nintendo…
