Mark your calendars, it’s almost time for another of tater’s charity streams!     Who: Extra Life, for University of Iowa Stead Hospital.   When:  May 1st all day*!   What: Final Fant...

About a year ago, maybe, I found out I had the beetus.  I have been playing around with food stuffs low in carbs and figured I would share some of my favorites that I have found so far.     White Trash Soup A Pound...

GyrosGyros have the highest floor of any food that I have ever eaten.  For those unfamiliar with the floor and ceiling concept, what I am getting at is this - the worst gyro that I have ever had was from my work’s cafeteria....

I’m bitter as hell, this is a rambling blog.  It’s not directed at anyone, but it isn’t pointed away either, I guess.  Curse words to follow. Some Will Fall In Love With Life and Drink It Like A Fountain I&r...

One thing that my family is totally in to is antiquing.  My sister and her husband are both archaeologists, my mom just really lives kitchy stuff (lots of candlewick), and my brother always enjoys rummaging through a store.  ...

Overload - Traditional style 6DOF game, but with VR support!  I played this with a HOTAS because ‘immersion’ and it took me a long time to get used to the controls but was fun once I did.  The difficulty escalated...

Extra Life game day is this Saturday!  Several community members are planning on playing, so I wanted to get a single place to view who is live and where.  If I missed you or if you want to add details, feel free to leave the...

Back in May I did a no reason fundraiser playing Final Fantasy 13 for 13 hours.  Now that the official Extra Life day is upon us, I think it would be only appropriate to play Final Fantasy 7 for a total of 12 hours!  Unlike M...

Hello everyone!  I am looking for your feedback on a community based streaming contest, that would happen monthly!  I have outlined what I think would work, but would love any comments on what you think would and wouldn&rsquo...

Warframe is one of the most consistently monetized free to play games I have seen.  Want a new gun?  Five bucks.  Oh wait, you don’t have enough slots for a new gun.  We’ll sell you those slots for five ...

Cave In I had an idea to make a card game the other day that plays similarly to Screw Your Neighbor combined with Cash And Guns.  Figured I would type it out to see if it makes sense, and unleash it on you all if you wanted to try...

There is so much that I wanted to say about this game that in a review, but I wanted to try to write a 'professional' review because I had seen so few.  With that being said, a lot of the soul of things that made me love the game ...

Fire Emblem with Seoul Sometimes there is just nothing going on at work or in my life, so I go and check out the upcoming section on Steam to see if there is anything I can get excited about.  I saw a bright yellow rectangle with...

I just beat Final Fantasy XV, and before that Final Fantasy XIII, so I thought it would be cool to do a side by side comparison of each part of the game with the other one!  I’ll try to keep things as subjective as possible ...

May first is going to be one heck of a day.  You know why?  Because I am going to be doing a 13 hour long stream of Final Fantasy 13!  I have already made it well past the furthest point I made it before, so this is a bl...

It feels like I was born with an NES controller in my hand, some days, and it certainly shaped which games I liked, and which games I didn’t like.  Not only would my older brother relay what he read from Nintendo Power or pa...

I saw a gif of someone glitching out in Forza the other day - the road suddenly disappeared underneath the car, and the car was suspended in air doing 600 miles per hour.  It got me thinking about how fun it would be to have a gam...

Borderlands 2 is probably in my top 3 most played games.  I beat it once with each character on release, then played all the characters again with my brother, then I picked it up on PC later and beat it two more times, came back t...

This blog has been something that I have thought about for quite some time.  I think the revelation hit me when I was playing Crysis 2 on the 360, but it applies to so many different aspects of most of the games that I love:  ...

  Elder Scrolls - like Zelda, but an RPG!  Fallout - Like Elder Scrolls, with guns! Outer Worlds - like Fallout, in space!  I like Skyrim. I really like Fallout (even 4!), and I thought New Vegas was one of the best.&nbs...

In previous years I have looked and evaluated each game that I have played and given a brief synopsis, but this year I wanted to do something a little bit different.  You see, 2019 is probably one of the second worst years that I ...

Three Houses is my first Fire Emblem game, and from playtime alone, I adore it.  I beat it just outside a week on my first playthrough, and again in just over a week on my second.  The character building is great, and seeing ...

Almost all of the worldbuilding in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided sucks.  I played through the whole game mostly out of spite to see how bad it could get, and taking notes where I found something particularly bad.  Don’t get ...

Below is a summary of the campaign I have been running for D&D.  Almost every name is a reference to a game or somewhere in the real world with some importance to me.  Catch them all to win a prize! Prologue (DM specific ...

Emboldened after playing Secret of Evermore, I decided to try again to get use out of my SNES and old games.  I started up Earthbound, then bounced over to Final Fantasy 3 and boy do I have opinions on THAT game. So I went back to...

I never played Majora’s Mask, but was always somewhat interested.  It was a bit of a blind spot for me, as I didn’t want to buy it when I had an N64, and as I got older, I didn’t want to play it because the 3 day...

So I have started to get into chapter 3 for everyone, and I realized that there is a lot that I really like about the mechanics of the game.  Some of the story is take it or leave it, some of the voice actors are take (Hannit) or ...

Lately I have been going on in qposts about how much I like Serious Sam 3 VR, so I decided to go into more detail than  just gushing about how great it is. It is the full game ported to VR, with improvements only.  This feel...

A not-so-short while ago, I came up with the idea for a video game:  what if there was a tournament fighter where you didn’t have to worry about any of the inputs?  Instead of fumbling with controls, anyone would have t...
