Worst Type of Scare: Something BIG Approaches
Not to spoil what’s likely to be in my next Spooktober post, but, I don’t like overly-large, beastly antagonists. It’s bad enough when you’re minding your own business and they pop up out of nowhere (looking at you Fallout’s mirelurk queens!).

Redfall Gets An Update, Still Sucks. Are You Surprised?

Then there are extras that one has to question the point of. On the surface, the xScreen appears to be a member of the former category, it’s…
Spooktober – Suspense is Just Killer!
Happy Spooktober everyone! As Cary said earlier, our original Halloween special is back, and this time we’re going back to what it’s all about: the scares! This week we’re talking about which genre scares us the most, and for me it’s the gaming equivalent of the suspense-thriller!
