Today, the Duck (blogger of The Duck of Indeed, of course) has the pleasure of sharing with all of you a post on the game that ranked #5 in our top 10 list, “The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask”. I was so happy to see that this game made the top 10 to begin with,…

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…
Rayman: Rising Out of Obscurity
Over a decade ago, while perusing my local Best Buy, I came across a game called “Rayman 2: The Great Escape” for the Nintendo 64. The box sported a bizarre looking dude with a big nose that I actually mistook for a rather odd dog (I later found that he is, in fact, you know…
Overlooked: The 1,000th Lum of Rayman 2
One of the most satisfying things in any video game, for me, at least, is when you discover secrets that most of those who have played the game know little about. I have found a decent number of secrets (well, to be honest, by “found”, I mean that I read about them online) in various…
Community Post: Hopelessly Spellbound by Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup
I was in an HMV store with my dad when we bumped into my godmother who we hadn’t seen for a while. I was 9 years old then and it occurred to her that my birthday was coming up. “Is there anything you’d like, dear?” I knew the answer before the question escaped her lips….
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…
Community Post: The Embarrassing Joys of Lost Kingdoms II
Thanks to an idea from Chip of “Games I Made My Girlfriend Play”, the admins and contributors of UWG will be posting a series of community posts over the next span of days on the topic of our “guilty pleasure” games in celebration of April Fool’s Day. And it looks as if the Duck gets…
EGX Rezzed- My Highlights
So over the weekend EGX Rezzed was held at the NEC in Birmingham and i was lucky enough to be able to get myself down to it on the Friday. For those who are unaware of what Rezzed is the way i describe it is like a more indie based Eurogamer, although this year for…
Unforgettable: The Appearance of the Flood
Not so long ago, in a room possibly far away and possibly not so much, depending on where you live, I mentally face-palmed myself. Because I had just realized that I had somehow managed to forget a particular moment in my gaming history where I just said to myself, “Wow, now that was one of…
Resonance: Dark Creature Pursuit
Video from Youtube User: Soniman001 One game I recently had the pleasure of playing was “Rayman Legends”, a wonderful game that contains some of the best video game music I have ever heard. But, as I believe I have said before (and if I hadn’t, now you know), a song has to be more than…
