Retro gaming has had a resurgence in popularity. People are going up into lofts and digging out their Nintendos, Ataris and even PDP-11 minicomputers to return to the bygone era of computing. Like many people in the last few years, I went from being satisfied with modern smartphone recreations to collecting (too many) original machines, […]
Yeah, okay. If only this was actually true. Better tell (insert random game publisher here because we do not want to get in trouble) that! Seems lately the industry has become more about meeting deadlines than releasing finished games. Editor’s note: This is a screenshot from a game named “Gave Dev Story.” (Imgur)
I do. And even though most of the games sucked (as seen above), those were still glorious days. Few feelings match the feeling of a free video game tumbling out of your cereal into your bowl one morning. I miss those days. Now the game would be 20 minutes long and you would need to pay […]
It is a well-known fact that video game movies don’t always represent their source material very well, and for that reason, aren’t the highest grossing movies of all time by any means.

I have a pretty good life and I am lucky (and worked really hard for it). I get to write about geek stuff, and rarely do I suffer from envy. But even a soul as stoic as I can admit, wholly, that as a gamer I felt seething jealousy when I saw this picture. Yes, […]
Looks like we have quite a week in store for us gamers. Hope you have your wallet crammed because this might be an expensive week for us. And yes, even the Nintendo Switch is covered. For me, the Life is Strange prequel no one expected has me most excited. What game has you drooling? Games […]
There are few things that hurt a gamer as much as when some sick looking new game gets announced and we get all hyped for it over the years and then we get the news: That game is never coming out. There can be many reasons that games get canceled, but it makes the news […]
2017 has been a banner year for gaming. We are only halfway through the year and I can already tell you that this year has been one of the best for console gaming in a very long time. But with so many amazing games out there, which ones are the very best of 2017, so […]
We gamers are an easy lot to judge, yet no one seems to judge us accurately. We are sometimes mocked in pop culture as geeks, yet video games are making more than Hollywood movies now, so clearly it is not just “geeks” who game. Everyone from little girls to single dads game, with every demographic […]
2017 has been a hell of a year for us gamers. We are not even halfway through the year and we have had some perfect games. Seriously, Horizon Zero Dawn and Breath of the Wild teeter on perfection, and those are just two examples of the many top-tier games that have come out so far. […]
