[caption id="" align=“aligncenter” width=“500” caption=“So maybe I wasn’t playing video games at birth nor was this blog running 25 years ago, but this is my 25th year too!”] [/caption] 2011 was an odd year in games for me. It started out like any other, filled with joy and happiness, and then it was all wrenched away halfway through, thanks to that burglary, until I was able to start replenishing my stores and getting the ball rolling again for the second half. ...
[caption id="" align=“aligncenter” width=“500” caption=“There are no blades in this movie.”] [/caption] Movies Blade Runner - Until today I’d never seen what many people consider to be the greatest sci-fi movie ever made.

The example above was taken by Eric. This week was comic book heavy. There was a huge sale at Eric’s shop that I took advantage of along with some Amazon orders to finish off small runs of series I was reading. ...
If you have a pathological fear of commitment or maturity, Catherine might not be for you.
I’m really excited for this game. Comes out soon!
Looks a lot like the Japanese one, but in English this time!
It’s no secret that I love Atlus games, particularly the ones in the MegaTen mutliverse. The devs behind Persona 3 and 4 have been working on Catherine and it’s looking like a very interesting game.
