Fallout Shelter: Be the Overseer!

Fallout Shelter: Be the Overseer!

Comments 0 Comment

Fallout Shelter arrived on Android devices on August 13th, so I’ve finally had a chance to dive right into managing my own post apocalyptic vault! Suffice to say, Fallout Shelter isn’t just a pre-released, bare-bones mobile/tablet app intended to generate hype. Fallout Shelter is a free quality game that will have you constantly checking your phone or tablet, just to see how your vault dwellers are doing. I have had an absolute blast with this fun little game so far,…

Rocket League: Race Cars and a Ball

Rocket League: Race Cars and a Ball

Comments 2 comments

What would you say if I told you that one of the best video games this summer is…. Wait for it….. A soccer game. You’d be in disbelief, right, especially coming from me, as I’m not the biggest sports-ball fan. Well, what if I told you it was a soccer game with acrobatic race cars? Are you in yet? I was skeptical at first, but Rocket League is a video game that’s in a league of its own. As a friend…

I’ve recently begun playing Double Fine’s second Kickstarter game, Massive Chalice.  Massive Chalice is brought to us by Brad Muire, known for his part as the lead designer for the awesome (and well-regarded) Brütal Legend. The game came out of Early Access just recently on the 1st of June for PC, and it was also released on the Xbox One. The game reeks of the infectious charm every Double Fine game is known for. Unique classes, graphics, animations, and, best of all, a…

Role Playing Rad: Gothic Series & Risen Series

Role Playing Rad: Gothic Series & Risen Series

Comments 0 Comment

If it wasn’t apparent by now, my most beloved genre in the gaming space is the Role-playing game. RPGs tend to showcase ambitious overarching story-lines, moral decisions, multiple characters, with an engaging power curve, which usually presents it’s own set of decisions on how you would like to build your character. Towards the end of an RPG, with a well balanced power curve, you’ll feel a sense of accomplishment for how far your character has come, along with a connection…

Rad Listed: Massive Variety

Rad Listed: Massive Variety

I’ve determined that the Rad listed feature is a good one, but one that doesn’t lend itself well to a weekly installment. I found myself repeating the same game over and over, so I’ve determined that it will be better served as a bi-weekly to monthly feature. By switching it up this way, I’ll be able to quickly introduce a wider variety of games with less repetition. But, enough of this boring administrative work– let’s talk about GAMES! World of…

The MOBA Dilemma

The MOBA Dilemma

Comments 1 comment

One of the first chats I ever posted was my ‘Confessions of a DotA-holic‘ post back in July 2013. The post was a love letter describing my passion for the game. While I’m still passionate about DotA, I haven’t played it for months. Instead, Blizzard’s “Heroes of the Storm” has replaced that void. While I believe HotS is a very well-made MOBA, I still believe that DotA is the better game. So, why am I playing HotS exclusively over DotA?…

E3 2015 was last week, and wow, was it a good one, too! Probably one of the most exciting E3s in a long time. Tons of new games were announced, we got to see more virtual reality in action, and Fallout 4 is actually coming out this year!  I want to touch on briefly on some of the things shown at E3 that I am most excited about. Fallout 4 The one announcement I’m most ecstatic about is the Fallout…

I always find myself trying to convince my friends to try out PC gaming. I show them my huge Steam library. I show them how I have my PC set up to play games on my TV.  I show them how I can connect a controller to the PC effortlessly.  Everything! I show them everything! How many have I converted? One. Just one.  But, that only encourages me to continue my efforts! This post is simply an attempt to convince…

No Woot Wednesday post this week, I know, total failure! Expect a Woot Wednesday post next week talking about my favorite announcements at E3. In the mean time, here’s a fresh Rad Listed! The Witcher 3 The Witcher 3 has been out for a month, and I’m still working on it! This game is so full of content I am not even sure when I’ll manage to finish it. I guess I could beeline through the main story content, but…

Mortal Kombat X I still recall playing the first Mortal Kombat on my Sega Genesis in 1992. It was my first introduction to a fighting game, but also my first introduction to my father and I spewing trash talk at each other. An introduction to Mortal Kombat also resulted in me playing just about every other fighting game out there, such as Virtual Fighter, Tekken, Street Fighter, Killer Instinct, Soul Caliber, and even Clay Fighter. In high school, my friends…
