  • Halo: Campaign Evolved: The Brute Sensibilities Of Nostalgic Reprise

    Life is one big grey area, and due to this notion, it’s of great importance one appreciates how the black and white all blend together to create the intricate majesty of existence. So majestic… For anyone following along with my Halo coverage thus far, one may jump to the conclusion I am not that big… Read more

  • Halo: Campaign Evolved-The Good, The Bad And The Remade

    This much is true: you’ll find many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view. One man’s mean slight is another man’s peaceful night In a moment that seemed to be one of sheer reluctance, I started writing about my time with Halo: Campaign Evolved (H:CEv) yesterday. The reticence… Read more

  • Halo: Campaign Evolved- Like A Hail Mary Sticky Grenade

    There is always a fine line between celebrating the past with ardent fervor and being hysterically shackled to it while suffering stockholm syndrome with a fearful smile plastered across a tear drenched face. Ah, the good old Thanksgiving classic With Mina the Hollower pretty much done and dusted, a small reluctance takes over me, as… Read more

  • Monetizing the Monotony

    “Ignorance is bliss” helps to remind us that a peace of mind is contingent with the notion…you’re better off not knowing. The truth shall set you free…the only problem is: freedom is terrifying I waxed more philosophically then I initially intended to in my last post, when discussing the utterly trivial nature of traditional reviews,… Read more

  • Virtual Identity and Best Intentions

    Sometimes, it’s the thought that counts. Other times, it’s probably for the best to leave well enough the fuck alone Here I am, at the end of the day, attempting to get something posted before midnight, not necessarily coming in totally prepared with a bunch of gameplay under my belt to reference, nor am I… Read more

  • Rare Replay: Missing the Boat

    Even despite our best efforts of wanting to enjoy the day, that does not stop someone from peeing on the proverbial rug of contentment, thusly ruining what might have been an enjoyable afternoon in the process… Or literal rug, obviously, though it does bring up the notion of irony that after said rug, proverbial or… Read more

  • Microsoft Blinks In Its Consumer Game Of Chicken: Holiday Games No Longer Priced At $80

    Nintendo’s face looking at the retail price of Mario Kart World at time of press release, when Microsoft comments games don’t need to have an $80 price tag In a strangely non-cynical moment of consumer time, Microsoft has changed their tune on the price of sequel Outer Worlds 2, a follow up to the popular… Read more

  • Quick Posit: Wondering If A Downsizing Of The Video Game Industry Is Inevitable At This Point

    Another great looking game I look forward to downloading and not finding the time to play Like most of my quick posits, this one acts as more of a conversation starter than a fully fledged article, as sometimes my schedule doesn’t allow for time to cook up a more elaborate write up, but I simultaneously… Read more

  • To Do List: Video Game Binge Activate

    Time keeps on slipping… …into itself? That’s why today’s post is more of a bite sized tidbit, as it were, best laid plans and all that sometimes leaves one up the creek and without a paddle in the temporal department. I thoroughly suggest to anyone reading this that if you wish to get a new… Read more

  • Hell Needs Mood Lighting, Too

    With enough practice, one can even master the domain of hell. I’m not sure if this same logic is why Doom games have a “take it easy on me” break in period in earlier levels, but the warm up rounds of mindfully restrained sense of posturing make the burning sensation of hellfire a lot more… Read more

  • disappointed in the post launch hype of the Switch 2

    Seems as if Mario Kart World is stalling at the starting line ever so slightly… Normally when a console launches, I’m lucky enough to be there day one, as at the very least, an individual launch title usually propels me to plop hundreds of bucks down for some shiny new hardware in the name of… Read more

  • Doom: The Dark Ages: One Hell of A Compromise

    All hell has broken loose…again. I’m of course referring to the recent launch of DOOM: The Dark Ages, which has felt like a longtime coming, with Eternal having launched back in March 202 we0, back during the start of the pandemic. It was a shitty time, to say the least Dark times indeed, though we… Read more
