Happy Zelda-ween!

If you hadn’t caught on already, we here at United We Game hold The Legend of Zelda series close to our hearts. We also enjoy this time of year when thoughts turn towards celebrating Halloween, especially in games. This year, we decided to combine the two into a new posting theme: Zelda-ween! Over the next…

Attacking My Steam Library, This Time With Feeling!

I’m going to imagine that there aren’t many Steam users out there who haven’t amassed a significant library of games. I know I have. With a Steam library that’s currently pushing 100 (tiny, compared to some, I bet) and a dearth of new games to play (HA! Did someone say “Isn’t your Fallout 4 character…

When Good is Just Okay Enough: Street Fighter EX3

The following post originally appeared on Recollections of Play, February 14, 2013. Street Fighter EX3 (EX3), released in late 2000, was the first 3D Street Fighter game I ever played. Up to that point we had been wearing thin our copy of…which game was it? Super SFII or SF Alpha 2…one of those.  Plus, we…

My Year with the Elgato Game Capture HD

Almost year ago I stepped into the capture card ring with the Elgato Game Capture HD. It was a crazy idea, frankly…when in the world was I going to find time to make game videos?! But with UWG’s YouTube channel just finding its legs, it seemed like the perfect time to get in on the…

Making Nice With the Twilight Princess: 10 Years Later

  This November marks the tenth anniversary of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Earlier this year, Nintendo released an HD version of the game on the Wii U. Although Breath of the Wild is what’s in the news, it’s really been the year of Twilight, and that’s a big part of why I decided…

YouTube Highlights: August 2016

Hard to believe that another month has nearly reached its end,  but here we are, drawing the summer months to a close with another YouTube Highlights video! Yes, it’s that time of the month were we take a look back and share what we’ve accomplished in terms of gaming videos. So, without further ado, let’s…

Nintendo and I: Is the End is Nigh?

Three years ago, I contemplated why I had not yet established a relationship with the Wii U. The console had then been out for number of months, and as a self-prescribed “super” Nintendo fan, I had yet to jump on the Wii U bandwagon. Though I was enamored with the likes of Super Mario 3D…

You Don’t Always Know

I like to think that I know what I like, especially when it comes to video games. I’ve been playing long enough at this point to have tried a bit of everything. I’ve also been playing long enough to have decided which types of games I’ll pay attention to. It’s a mindset that’s served me…

A New [Fighting Game] Enters the Match!

Some of you reading may know that I’ve been running a fighting game series over on United We Game’s YouTube channel called “Not Zangief.” I started it as a way to revisit a number of games from my past, and, of course, to simply play more fighting games. In recent years, I’ve just not played…
