You know, I never expected the Angry Video Game Nerd episode reviews to get as far as they did — I’m in Season 4 and am incredibly optimistic on where this is going, as it’s gone from being just a fun little side project to something to really enjoy! In retrospect, however, I didn’t plan …

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 65: Atari Jaguar Part I – Episode Review
It’s time to begin taking a look at what I consider the best season of The Angry Video Game Nerd (Season 4) and what a better way to start off than a history episode! No, I’m not being sarcastic, I actually rather like the episodes where the Nerd talks about the back story of some …

We Are Starting Over (Or, How To Reboot Your Site Without Really Trying)
Sometimes, in the life of a web site, you need to start fresh. The thing is, you can’t just delete everything and truly start like new. Well, you can, but that isn’t exactly the best course of action since it would greatly hurt ranking in search engines and already existing back links to content. That’s …

August 2019 Xbox Live Games With Gold
Welcome to August, one of the hottest months of the year in my area and probably the greatest month of the year where I’d rather stay inside and game than go out and do much of anything. Of course a new month means a new set of games from Games With Gold, and this month …

The “Final” Space Article (For Now, Anyway…)
It’s been a few days since my last post here, and even with that the last few posts were all Apollo 11 related. The 50th anniversary was quite an event to be a part of, even passively as I was. More so than the actual shared experience, intensity and emotion was found in my own …

Reflections On Apollo 11
The evening of July 20th was spent with me watching the entirety of the Apollo 11 moonwalk as it had happened 50 years ago on that same date. I knew the whole event was only about 2 hours long but, like everything about watching the mission in real time, it was amazing to me how …

That’s One Small Step For [A] Man, One Giant Leap For Mankind
Six and a half hours after landing on the Lunar surface on July 20th, 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to step onto another celestial body. A goal set by President Kennedy back in 1961, and a dream that many cultures in humanity had had for centuries in the past had …

The Eagle Has Landed
I just completed watching the Apollo 11 landing in real time, and all I can say, in short form, was it was an incredible experience. I’ve watched the footage before — recall a few years ago I shared the PDI to touchdown footage, but I’ve never experienced the landing in its full context like the …

Today Is The Day – The 50th Anniversary of the Apollo 11 Lunar Landing
This is it. Today is July 20th, 2019. The 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 lunar landing. To say that I’m excited would be an understatement — it’s just something different to think it’s been 50 years, half a century, since this event. I remember the 25th anniversary well enough (I have a poster related …

Angry Video Game Nerd – Season 3 Review
It took a while, but we made it through Season 3 of The Angry Video Game Nerd! That only took about 11 months, but it’s done, and quite a ride it was! This was the point where I’d say the series really began to reach its peak. It was during this time James moved into …

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 64: Milon’s Secret Castle – Episode Review
We’re at the final episode of The Angry Video Game Nerd Season 3 and to finish things off we’re looking at… Milon’s Secret Castle. Really? Milon’s Secret Castle? This is a strange one and a game that I would think, up until this episode was made back in 2009, not many people had even heard …

I May Have Ordered A PlayStation Classic
No, really, I *may* have ordered one, as I’m not sure if the order will actually be processed! As a part of Amazon Prime day I decided to go ahead and get a PlayStation Classic – they were only $20, and for that I’d buy one as an emulation box, at the very least, if …

Amazon Is The Beast You Made It
The massive online retailer Amazon just finished up its “Prime Day” sale, a mid summer event where they offer deals which would normally be reserved for people with a “prime” subscription. At least, that’s the idea, there are claims all around the internet each year that the prices shoot up and then sales are taken …

50 Years Ago: The Launch Of Apollo 11
Today is the day. July 16th, 2019 marks 50 years to the day since the launch of Apollo 11 and humanities first landing on the Moon — an event which, to me, is the single greatest accomplishment in human history. It’s amazing how quickly we got to this point – from the Write Brothers first …
