My First Days with the Wii U
Well, I did it. It’s been a crazy time for me lately. I just got a new cat. And, even more exciting (I kid, or do I?), I finally relented and bought my first console of the current generation. My choice was the Wii U, despite a waning love of Nintendo, for it was the…
Resonance: Scorch ‘n’ Torch
I know I’ve said this before, but I wasn’t a big fan of Donkey Kong Country Returns. I thought it was too difficult, and it didn’t stand up to the high expectations I had of a new entry to an old series I used to love. Well, I have since grown somewhat fond of the…
So Many Games to be Thankful For
Seeing as my fellow admins wrote their own Thanksgiving-themed posts (a long time ago…) on games they were thankful for, I thought I better get my tail into gear and write one of my own. I intended on publishing this quite some time ago, but Listmas came up, and I wasn’t able to get to…

EGX London: My Favourite Gaming Memory Of 2014
So another year is soon coming to an end, another year in which I didn’t become good-looking, or rich. One day. Random rather depressing and strange opening sentence aside, I feel that 2014 has been a pretty good year personally when it comes to videogaming. With that in mind, I want to share my favourite…
Listmas: Favorite Items and Weapons
Video games are home to much more than just delightful characters to control and interesting locations to explore. No, most games just wouldn’t be complete if it weren’t for creative and useful items and weapons that make the game that much more fun. So now, a list of some of my favorite items. Those I…
Listmas: Games I Played This Year
How wonderful that we’re doing Listmas again this year, as it was quite a fun holiday, and I’m just a person who enjoys listing things, no matter what time of year that may be. This has been a crazy year for gaming, so I thought today’s list would be a list of the games I…
