I’m letting my Gamefly subscription expire because 1) I don’t have the money to shell out anymore and 2) I’m getting a game or two for Christmas (and later my birthday) so I’ll have plenty to keep me busy. Here’s a look at what I’ve been playing… Catherine – I was definitely hooked on the [...]

I’m going to forgo my normal Gamefly journal to talk about empowerment in video games. What brings this on you ask? A game which I subjected myself to this afternoon, Dark Souls. Dark Souls is an adventure/RPG where you play a knight (or mage or whatever you create) roaming across the land doing… something. It [...]
Well, it’s time to take a look at some of the games I’ve been playing lately – courtesy of Gamefly. Marvel Vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds – I’ve never been a huge fighting game person. This game didn’t change my mind any. It’s definitely colorful and there are a lot of cool characters. [...]
I know, I know, my thoughts on the PSP are really, really late – especially since the new Playstation portable, the PS Vita, should be out in not too long. However, I just got my PSP a few weeks ago (by trading in my Nintendo DS XL no less). Originally I wasn’t interested in the [...]
Hello everyone! I know I said I probably wouldn’t write about games for awhile but I lied. I recently restarted my Gamefly subscription and have gotten to play several games. I used to do reviews of these on one of my blogs but I just don’t have the energy for that anymore so I’ll just [...]
I’m not going to be doing any big projects in the future, nor am I going to be writing about games for awhile. However, I do have this little piece that I wrote about a Ms. Pac-Man machine in my hometown. I was going to submit for something but I haven’t heard anything about it [...]
Mega Man 9 was such a success Capcom decided to go ahead and make another. To tell you the truth, I’m glad they did. Mega Man 10, like MM9 before it, encapsulates what was good about the series and gives us Mega-heads another old school game to master. The story is a bit different this [...]
I remember being quite surprised when I saw the first screenshots of Mega Man 9. It had been almost a decade since the awful MM8. Yet the screens I saw in EGM looked like they’d come straight from the NES. Capcom was flying in the face of modernity and releasing an old school, 2-D Mega [...]
I HATE Mega Man 8. HATE. I hate this game with a thousand hates. As much as one person can loathe a game, so doth I Mega Man 8. Let’s get that little factoid out of the way right now. It’s really too bad. Upon booting up the game you’re treated to a pretty cool [...]
Mega Man 7 was a complete surprise to me. The X series was in full swing (and getting great reviews) and it seemed like the original Blue Bomber would be confined to the NES for all eternity. Nope, not so. I was surprised to see an ad for MM7 in an issue of Electronic Gaming [...]
