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 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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
This Saturday, July 2nd, I will be at Anime Blues Con 6 here in Memphis, Tennessee, to host my panel for this year, entitled “So You Want To Be a Video Game Collector.” This will be the 3rd year I will have presented at Anime Blues Con, and also be the first year which I […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
World War One, by all accounts I’ve heard, would be the closest thing to “Hell on Earth” that has ever happened in human history. In many ways, it was the first true “modern” war, and in an equal number of ways was the last “traditional” war. The Verdun video game is based on the events […]
So, over the past few months I’ve been writing more. Much much more than I have in months, indeed, in years past. I’ve expressed before that I am switching over from making YouTube videos to writing more. I still crank out the occasional video, but at this stage, it’s so much easier to write than […]
So, I’ve been playing Halo 3 recently. Both on the Xbox One, via The Master Chief Collection, and the original Xbox 360 release from 2007. It’s a fun game, sure, and since I own a copy, why not go ahead and play through it on the 360 as well as the Xbox One, right? It’s […]
