First off, I want to thank LaTerry for taking up the mantle and putting in the effort to resurrect Band of Bloggers. Twas a thing before my time, but more prompts to write blogs and more topics to write about will doubtless be a boon t...

The earth is about 4.5 billion years old. Life on earth is about 4 billion years old. And modern humans are about 40,000 years old. It's an interesting thought I find, to muse on this age differential, especially when you consider t...

In this episode a new challenger approaches, under the name of Dinosir. He also edited this episode which you'll come to understand the relevance of as you listen to it. I'll apologize as we ran into some audio hiccups and it took some...

For this weeks episode Limo and I wander into one of the best "walking simulators" in the buisness, discuss player agency and good game design, and I attempt to survive Limos constant, endless verbal beratements for not playing a game...

Hey folks, I'm here with my latest blog about-NOPE, GOT YA ITS A PODCAST YOU FUCKERS!!!! Thats right, after endless hinting and ruminations on doing just a podcast its finally come together. I had been considering doing a podcast for ...

I love video games. That's obvious-I’m knee deep in the Dtoid, and I write about video games consistently. Its a shared love that ties us together even if some of us have terrible opinions about them like implying Fallout New Veg...

Well, it's that time of year once more isn’t it? All of the games I’ve looked forward to have come out and been played with one or two missed in the running. Such things are bound to happen, and the time one has to invest i...

Here or there, I see new people come into the blogosphere and here or there they ask for advice or make some common mistakes. I’ve been writing blogs since 2009-about 6 years by this point and a recent query about the frequency &...

Well dear children, gather round as I tell you all about one of the most wonderful events one can partake in-that of good bad movie night. Here I thought it would be fun to look back at how my particular group formed and proffer some a...

Last time we went over the mechanical and gameplay aspects of Bloodborne. Here we go over basically everything else I felt like talking about. I’ll link Part 1 here but hopefully you enjoy the thrilling conclusion to this two-par...

I am a man who likes his Metroids. I’ve had a fondness for this franchise for years and I was ruminating on discussing it with a brand new sidescrolling game upon us in the form of Samus Returns. With the Schooled Bloggers wanted...

I love From Software's various souls games-excluding Dark Souls 2 I really like all of them and I’ve managed to beat every single one including Dark Souls 2. So you can imagine my sadness and frustration when I learned that Blood...

Opinions are a tricky thing-especially in something with as many moving parts as a video game one can find a massive gulf in the opinions on any given game, its mechanics or its visuals and this can lead to a thought provoking discussi...

Specter of Torment is the second of the DLC campaigns to come from Yacht Club games and as you might imagine, its good! But that does come with some caveats and opinions on the matter of course. So without further delay, lets get ...

The PlayStation vita is the best console made by man, god, or some superior organism to both (like a bacterium) and throughout the five years I have owned it I often muse on how damn much I like the thing. Conveniently there&rsquo...

Ah yes, another year passes by. Gonna be honest-in regards to politics, celebrities dying and random other stuff I’m sure, it’s been a kind of shitty year. In regards to games however, it’s been quite a good year! It&...

It was as I beat Dishonored 2 that the full weight of how similar this games storyline is to the previous game hit me. As the final target was taken care of, I was left with a thought that hadn’t really coalesced until this point...

Dishonored first released 4 years ago, in 2012, and was one of the first games I ever wrote a blog review of! It was a terrible blog, as my skillz were not yet at the level they are now and its a pretty rough thing so I decided to do a...

Dishonored was a game I really enjoyed when it came out in 2012-a stealth using game with a lot of aesthetic style and a pretty enjoyable set up for play. With the sequel coming out at the end of the week, I figured it was time to div...

While I have not yet gotten around to writing a Witcher 3 review-its a daunting task indeed, but one that I might someday meet-I figure tackling the DLC will be a bit easier, and somewhat timely given the complete edition of that ...

Bioshock was a game released in 2007, with a sequel coming out in 2010 made by different people and a spin off…thing in 2013. With a remake on its way in September, and a bloggers wanted prompt here to feed on like a hungry myx...

This year was a surprising one for me. Dark Souls 3 was on its way, and despite some impressive trailers I was not super enthralled. Dark Souls 2 burned me by being merely “ok” in my eyes, and I wasn’t expecting ...

Luigi’s mansion released in 2001 for the GameCube, and according to Wikipedia was the most successful GameCube launch title, with generally good reviews. It was a fun game that involved using a modified vacuum cleaner to suck up ...

Sigh Fallout 3 is my favorite game of all time, as demonstrated by my numerous writings on the subject. After being disappointed with Fallout New Vegas’s lackluster world and missions, I was pumped for Fallout 4 to come out and ...

Resident Evil is a long and storied franchise in the Capcom line-up, which Capcom has been doing its damndest in recent years to make into a big action franchise despite the fact it was originally a horror series. And while RE4 was mo...

Normally I try to do a blog once a month and follow the bloggers wanted prompt, but after writing up near 1000 words I wasn’t feeling good about my blog-so Imma do a review or two instead, maybe make a bit of a series out of rev...

Fallout games have a long tradition of making a character, picking skills and abilities, and then setting out only to find out that in the older games of the series, the best character has more than a few points in the killing things ...

With the last of the big 3 VR headsets announced and priced, I thought it fitting to discuss my thoughts on the one I see having the most potential to reach a wide market and aid adoption of VR as a whole, at least in the early stages o...

Now that we’ve gotten the bad out of the way, I’d like to talk about the things I really like about PC. As part 1 should have indicated, there are numerous issues to be had with PC but here I’m going to go into the things that outwe...

The PC master race phrase was first coined, as far as I can tell, by the famously vitriolic host of Zero Punctuation, Yahtzee Crowshaw as a dig at PC gaming. Since then the phrase has gained popularity as a form of insult, joking self-ref...
