So this post is going to be quite long, packed with roughly a million trailers, first look critiques and a barrage of larger meta statements. So enough wasting time with the preamble, bring on the meat! Read More→

Since E3 is going to dump a deluge next week, I thought I’d make a quick little post covering a couple of extra, and interesting, tidbits that would otherwise get washed away by E3 or are only timely relevant. So don’t worry, this one is quick and mostly painless, especially if you took that dose of heroine I mailed you.
As a whole, it seems like its been a kind of an off or even bad week. Whether it’s because you got rear-ended by a kid just outside your parents place or because an artillery crew of 7 killed over a 1k of your soldiers causing you to flip your shit because of how moronic such an auto-resolve result is and stop playing the game. But never fear, E3 is near! But for now, settle for the few crumbs this week offered up in interesting news.
We continue to doggedly trudge through the meek and meager mid year months of video gaming. Apparently known to developers as the “don’t release shit during these months” time. That said, E3 is just around the corner and the amount of media spin, pre-rendered footage, press points and demographically targeted trailers that are coming is likely quite immense. So for now, sit back and pretend you’re enjoy the absence of all that E3 buzz. Read More→
It’s a day early and…well its not worth money so its not a dollar short. But so much got typed out in long strings of hopefully coherent sentences that I figured why not. Quickly, before jumping over to the major new items and the three thousand words or so that follow said jump, let me just mention that during a recent AMA by Ellen McLain, the women behind the voice of GlaDOS, it was suggested that there is a Dota 2 announcer pack in the works. That doesn’t need any follow up or further words. Besides, plenty of other words later, now click and read. Read More→
Are you excited yet for next weeks XBox announcement reveal thingie on Spike TV at 1pm EST on Tuesday afternoon? Yeah, me neither. But I suppose it’ll be interesting to find out some of the potential details that’ll come out of the announcement. I’m sure the show itself will be grandiose, especially if the VGAs are any indication of how much self fellating could occur. So that seems skippable and then some. But the next generation of consoles will be felt throughout the entire gaming world, even if you don’t intend to buy one or ever play one.
I don’t even know what that would entail. I guess the posts would require me to polish a turd until it glistens and shines? Maybe lots of drab nothingness about upcoming EA releases that no one has ever heard of like Monster Quest Adventure Fun Time 3 now with six release day DLCs? But I kid, I joke. EA isn’t ALL terrible and bad…somewhat.
We start this weeks post with a free game. You like free things right? Papers, Please is a fun little roguelike indie game from Lucas Pope…yeah I don’t know who that is either but hes got creative talent. The game itself is currently all the rage in certain circles. It’s garnishing a lot of positive word of mouth and having played it myself, is oddly and compellingly addictive and enjoyable. The basic premise of the game is that you’re an immigration officer for a early 80′s communist country. Yes, immigration officer. Don’t judge it until you’ve tried it.

The trend of there not being any big news for big games continues. So, instead, here’s entirely too many small words for small games along side their small trailers.

Another week of few releases, previews and reviews. But despite that there is plenty to ramble on about because people like to say stupid things on the internet under the guise of intelligent commentary…wait, shit. Read More→
