Hey again all! Staying cool, I hope! Today we’re taking a look back at Halo 3 and the sorts of moments its wonderfully varied playlists enabled. Seriously, how is it that we’re now 15+ years out from this and we’re still looking back on how good the old stuff was? I dunno about you, but…

Evil West is Fun Throwback to the Xbox 360 Era
While I am not generally in favor of subscription services like Xbox Game Pass anymore, I’d be lying if I said that I haven’t gotten some good experiences out of them. The most recent of these is Evil West, which is one of the games included in PSN’s Games With Gold program this month (January…
Dragon Age: Origins is Both Better and Worse 13 Years Later
It’s amazing to me that 2009 is already practically ancient history as far as video games are concerned. Yet, a lot has indeed changed, especially when it comes to presentation and storytelling. Where everything was (for some reason) meant to be dark, gritty and very brown back then, now vibrance carries the day.
Listmas 2020: Top 5 Consoles
Since the topic floodgates were fully opened for this second week of Listmas 2020, I’ve decided to run through my five all-time favorite game consoles! After all, what better time to update the ranking than the dawn of a new hardware generation? If you’ve been reading our stuff for awhile, then you can probably guess…
R.I.P. Xbox 360; Goodbye Old Friend
It is not lost on me that just a couple weeks ago I was all like Pish posh! What am I to the future of gaming? Now, as I stare at my permanently dead Xbox 360, I can’t help but wonder if the future isn’t taunting me in some manner. Truth be told, I knew…
Day 22: A Game Sequel Which Disappointed You
As I slowly inch my way forward through the 30 days’ worth of video game topics, I arrive upon a pretty easy one, a game sequel which disappointed me. One game in particular springs to mind, but since it is such an obvious choice, I also wanted to briefly discuss one of the biggest crimes…
Marble It Up: Marble Blast Ultra Finally Has a Successor!
Back in the early days of the Xbox 360, there were only a handful of games available for download on the Xbox Live Marketplace. Some of them weren’t so great, but many like Geometry Wars and UNO have cemented their places as classics of the time. For me though, the one that stands above them…
Saving the Water of the Wastes in Fallout 3
The goal I set for myself seemed to be reasonable enough: complete the main story of Fallout 3 over the course of a brief and final summer break. Based on my experiences with Fallout: New Vegas and Fallout 4, I knew it was going to be a challenge, what with my tendency to become easily…
Fable 3…yeah, it’s still not great
Welp, I just couldn’t leave well enough alone. After writing that piece I published here a few weeks ago about the possibility of Fable 4, my curiosity got the better of me. I simply had to play Fable 3. I know, I could hardly believe it either. Last year I took time out to revisit…
