3 out of 5 starsOne of the reasons some people will never see video games as a legitimate art form is because unlike other forms of media, games generally tend to shy away from disturbing or sensitive subject matter. Games like Call of Duty and State of Emergency depict unpleasant situations like war and urban riot, but they do so in such a bombastic, comic, unrealistic way that it’s extremely difficult to take them seriously.…
Sound Shapes2012
4 out of 5 starsSound Shapes is one of those fairly rare music games that, instead of having the player recreate music directly a la Guitar Hero , has the player doing something completely different while intertwining the audio throughout the experience. Meshing the audio so intricately with the visuals and gameplay results in an intensely engaging tour de force for the senses. Games like Rez HD , Everyday Shooter , and Audiosurf…
Theatrhythm Final Fantasy2012
5 out of 5 starsBack in the before time, the long long ago that was summer of 2011, a little developer by the name of Square Enix announced a Final Fantasy game the likes of which no one had ever imagined, or even knew what to make of. Theatrhythm, a name as bizarre as its concept, was apparently a title that would feature music and characters from all 13 main numbered Final Fantasy games. The weird thing was that the game play…
Fez2012
4 out of 5 starsAmong artsy indie games, there have been a lot of compelling puzzle-platformers in recent years. Games like Braid, Limbo and Closure may at times take themselves a bit too seriously, but they still rank among some of the most intriguing and beautiful games in the indie-space, if not all of gaming. They tease mystery, ambiguity, and encourage you to give yourself up to them before they let their deeper meaning be…

I havent really updated my blog here in a long time. I have an actual blog for most of my posts now. So go there if you're interested :P
What I've been playing
Dec 6, 2008
Since my last post I’ve played kind of a lot of stuff. I finished Resistance 2, got a whole bunch of trophies, and had a lot of fun with it. I tried going back and playing it on hard, but started getting frustrated when I couldn’t beat the huge spinner boss, so I don’t think I’m going to commit to it, just like what happened with BioShock. I don’t know how the hell I managed to get up the motiv...
Disappointed by not being spoiled?
Nov 30, 2008
So I beat BioShock over the weekend. And while the game, story, and the immersiveness of Rapture were all amazing, I was slightly disappointed to find out that I was greatly overthinking the supposed spoiler I read a while back. I saw the trophy for “Become a Big Daddy” and my mind was racing with possibilities about the implications of this. Unfortunately, the only reason you put on the Big Da...
I'm finally rockin!!!
Nov 8, 2008
So I just realized that I could use my Guitar Hero 3 guitar to play Rock Band now! Whoooo! I bought the disc-only version of Rock Band 2 and rented a copy of Rock Band 1 so I could import the songs to my hard drive. I am finally able to experience what everybody else has been playing for almost a year now. I love it! All I need to do now is buy a drum set. And get Guitar Hero: World Tour. One t...
Just tryin to keep up
Oct 26, 2008
I have decided to abandon my Now Playing list somewhat for the time being simply because between now and the end of the year there are so many good games coming out and I am going to be trying to play as many of them as possible. Therefore, it is unreasonable to think that I will be able to keep up the list when I won’t even be able to keep up with the games themselves. Basically, here’s how th...
Just a quick update before bed
Oct 20, 2008
Ok, real quick. Finally got the platinum trophy in Burnout Paradise. I was able to find an Eye Toy at Best Buy (apparently the only one left in the whole damn city) for only $10 so I was able to get the trophy for sending a mugshot. So I am happily playing my original save file again. Whooo! I am very pleased to announce that I beat Mega Man 9. I understand the initial reaction that it is insan...
