Edited to add a game I completely forgot despite loving. If you want to avoid self-indulgent self-reflections, skip down to the list. Despite a global pandemic and it's ramifications on 2020, it was a crazy year for me that had very little to do with a pandemic. In fact, my life hardly changed at all. I work with production at a poultry plant, there's no working from home for me. In fact, being...

This blog is going to be all sorts of a mess, because I have two very similar yet differen ideas about what the hell it is I am about to blog about. I'll start where the idea came to me, as these blogs that I write once every other year seems to. Recently got back into PS Now and saw that they had added, among other things, Greedfall.

I went through a divorce, lost a lot of weight due to stress, anxiety and lack of sleep. They don't really do films or songs about how...

A few days ago, the year that killed David Bowie ended. It was a real rollercoaster of a year with a lot of things going downhill. Ironically, games were pretty good. And I went back to school to try and make myself hirable as something other than a punching bag, and to my surprise I am doing pretty damn well in school. So here's to hoping that keeps up as we start down on the highway 2017 and...

If you for a moment consider these questions; what makes a good open world map? Does the game have to justify the map in some way? If yes, does the game have to offer up incentives or can the exploration come organically? I ask those questions because having finished Mafia III and pondered how I tend to fall on the odd side of the discussion on the Mafia franchise. A lot of people argued that M...
