Gaming has been around a long time, as have many of us who enjoy games as a proper hobby. We’ve a great many changes and shifts in the gaming market over our many years, but one of the most significant is one that has been nearly all-encompassing yet hasn’t delivered on the industry’s most important…

The Horror That Surrounds: We Don’t Go To Vault 22
Despite being almost comedic a lot of the time, the Fallout universe nonetheless hosts more than a few downright creepy locations. Fallout 3’s Vault 108 and its legion of Garys is one. Basically the entirety of Point Lookout is another, and you could say The Sierra Madre in Fallout: New Vegas thanks to its combination…
You get a Fallout Crossover! And YOU get a Fallout Crossover!
Over the past day or so, news leaked about a set of Fallout cosmetics that apparently will be coming to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone at some point in the future. About a week ago, a new Fortnite update brought the addition of Fallout gear to the perennial battle royale. They say…
Spooktober: No! Not the Bugs! NOT THE BUGS!
I like to think of myself as somewhat sophisticated when it comes to the kinds of horror games I like. I’ll go on and on about the likes of Signalis or Soma and how they can chill us to the bone by confronting us with the nightmarish possibilities of existence. I’ll dive into stuff like…
Top 5: Games I’d Like to See Ported to the Nintendo Switch
I joined with many a raised eyebrow over Rockstar’s recent announcement concerning Red Dead Redemption. Rumors swirled over hopes that they’d be releasing a current-gen version of the game; but, in fact, the world will be seeing only ports of the game to the PlayStation 4 and the Nintendo Switch. I’m not one to grumble…
Getting Back To It: Re-Discovering Fallout 3’s Capital Watesland
It’s been quite a while since I’ve done a “Getting Back To It” entry. In fact, I think the last one was about a year ago now. What can I say, I haven’t really been sitting on a lot of games. That said though, there is actually one game that I’ve been meaning to get…
Listmas 2021: Four Mascots Who Add a Bit More Cheer to Their Games
After talking about all the unfairly delicious-looking foods in games last week, it’s probably best to step away from things like treats and items for a bit. Instead, how about something both gamers and in-game characters can enjoy? Something like say, cute mascot characters? There’s a reason mascots are still around in both the real…
Thirty Hours and Counting in Fallout 76
A couple factors played into my decision to continue riding the Fallout wave with Fallout 76. Among the biggest was words from regular gaming bloggers. While most big gaming sites had seemed to give up on the game, many fellow game-players who had invested in the title seemed to really enjoy it, at least as…
Listmas 2017: Four Suggestions for the Next Fallout Locale
Practically on the tails of the release of Fallout 4, everyone started wondering about the setting of the series’ next installment. It seems likely that we’ll see Fallout 5 someday (maybe), and last year, it further appeared that things might be headed to New Orleans. But those rumors proved false (though a small question mark…
What’s the glitchiest game you’ve ever played?
Until recently, my answer to this question would have been Saints Row 2. I played the PC port of the game on Steam, and it contained its share of problematic glitches. In fact, more than once I found the game to be completely unplayable. Worst was when the screen would randomly blackout in the middle…
