Last month I wrote about “A sham of a shop in Wolfchase Mall” by the name of Dough Boy Mini’s. The short of the story is this: A friend noticed the shop wasn’t open, and hasn’t ever been open even though it’s been listed as coming soon for over a year, yet the Facebook page …

The Time of Apollo – 1975 NASA Film
In 1975, the Apollo program ended. Spanning nearly 15 years, from the programs inception in 1961, the final moon landings in 1972, all the way to Apollo Soyuz in 1975, the Apollo program was, at current, the ultimate in exploration, setting distance records, mission duration records (for that time) on Skylab, and of course, it’s …

Captain Skyhawk – NES Game Review
Captain Skyhawk is one of those odd games that many people seemed to have, but I can’t quite figure out why. It has nothing special about it at first glance, It looks like a flight simulator – shooter style game much like anything from the 80’s, but with a somewhat unique viewpoint, especially for a …

Anime Blues Con 6
This time last week I was in Downtown Memphis at Anime Blues Con 6. I only was able to go 1 day this year, and Saturday was that day. While it was only a week ago, it feels like longer than that since I was quite tired at the convention, and such fun events tend …

Halo 5 Free Play Days are Over. Thank you for Playing!
Halo 5 was free for the past week and a half in celebration of the release of the new Warzone Firefight game mode, and I have to say, after it all got downloaded (which took what seemed like forever) I did have plenty of time to actually try out the new game mode, as well …

The Final Liftoff of Atlantis
On July 8th, 2011, 10:26:46 am Central Time, I watched the end of an era. Somehow, I had managed to miss out on the news that the Shuttle program was coming to an end. Maybe my mind had been other places at the time, but I made sure to watch this launch, because it would …

What’s the Point if You’re Not Having Fun?
Heads up: this is a rather disjointed rant. Get over it. I play video games to have fun, relax, and enjoy myself. It’s my hobby, something I do because it pleases me. When I play a game, I expect to have a challenge, sure, but I do expect that challenge to be fair, to make …

July 2016 Xbox Live Games With Gold
Wow, I’m a little late for this one aren’t I? Read the previous article if you need to know why, but that’s not the point. The point is, as always, new month, new set of free games with an active Xbox Live Gold Membership. Comments this month are.. something else. People are constantly complaining about …

Time to Get Back to Business
Has it really been almost a week since the last post? That’s strange for me, now, for sure, but there is good reason! Dominantly, Anime Blues Con 6! Oh yes, as stated in the post last week, I indeed did go to the convention on Saturday and had an amazing time – more on that …

The Great YouTube Subscriber Purge – Or Was It Just A Glitch?
Many YouTube Content Creators awoke yesterday to find that they had lost many subscribers seemingly overnight. While some larger YouTube channels lost thousands, smaller channels lost maybe 10 – I personally went from 191 to 184, and I was somewhat surprised until I looked on Twitter and saw many others posting about similar losses, which …

Interesting enough to me, it looks like Halo 5 is going to be free for the next week for Xbox Live Gold members to play and enjoy! During this week, the game will also be on sale for half price, which, at $30 USD, isn’t bad at all for the amount of content being added …

Sega Genesis vs Super Nintendo – James Rolfe
For seemingly as long as there have been gaming consoles, there have been console wars. Much like the battle between the Xbox One and the Playstation 4 today, in the past there have been console after console battling it out for dominance of the market. In the late 80’s into the early 90’s, Nintendo had …

Super Mario Bros. – NES Game Review
There is quite a bit that can be said about Super Mario Bros. for the Nintendo Entertainment System. For many gamers my age, Super Mario Bros. is one of their first and most fond gaming memories, and for good reason: It is the game responsible for selling the NES in the American market following the …

The Review Plan
Yesterday I wrote about my plans to start reviewing things on here, in conjunction with the usual “whatever” I write about. Of course, before you go just reviewing whatever, you have to have some kind of standard for how you want to do things. Finding reviews will be simple – in the header there will …
