You may notice some games that are missing from this list and are on every other list. Well, I didn’t play everything because I didn’t have the time or the money, so that accounts for some of the big misses like Pyschonauts or Resident Evil 4. Other games are deliberately omitted :cough: HALO :cough: This list is also way long, but I didn’t want to limit myself to an arbitrary number like 10 or 20, so here it is: ...
Insert another credit, because it’s time for your weekly video game news and you’ve just hit the Game Overview screen. I really meant to get this done last night when I got home from Eric’s, but I started playing Uncharted 2 instead (I’m so close to the ending!). I’ll probably review the game when I finish it and I’ve had a chance to really think about the game. Other than that, I have a few bits and pieces of news for you, mostly having to do with, you guessed it, Left 4 Dead 2. ...

Deep from the trenches, it’s time for your Monday video feature: Embedded Reporter. As I looked for a new video for this week’s Embedded Reporter, I came across one that was absolutely brilliant and well done. Naturally I chose to put this up instead. Hey guys, I didn’t talk about L4D2 on Friday, so I’m having some feelings of withdrawal. Enjoy!

Insert another credit, because it’s time for your weekly video game news and you’ve just hit the Game Overview screen. I figured I’d start with BlazBlue today, since the game just came out and I sunk an evening in playing it. I don’t have all that much to say about it yet, but it’s intriguing in a very not Street Fighter way. The fighters are all insanely detailed and designed in an intricately anime fashion, leaving no moe niche unserved and the fighting system is deceptively simple, but actually WAY complicated, as most of these things are nowadays. I haven’t had a whole lot of time to sink into it, especially because Street Fighter IV has nabbed my attention yet again, but I will keep posting impressions as I play. ...
Happy Fourth of July! Recent statistics packages on my blog allowed me to browse search terms that lead to my site. So here’s what you’ve been searching in July along with relevant links and/or answers to your questions. mlb power pros 2009 - 68 hits MLB Power Pros continues to be a strong draw for my blog since I’m probably one of the few guys who talks about it.

Just about every serious adult (and employed) gamer has one thing in common, regardless of his/her tastes: the pile of shame. It sounds a lot worse than it is, because it’s definitely not a stack of Barbie Horse Adventure games or anything, it’s a stack of games that have all received critical acclaim or come highly recommended, but that the gamer has no time to get around to playing, mainly because of other releases or just being too busy. ...
