My Paranoia – Free To Play

I’m 29 and I’ve been gaming since I was 5. To me, a game can be many things, but most of the time, it’s a game you MIGHT play in the arcade, then hope it comes in some sort of console version right to your home. Back in my day (oh man I hoped I’d […]

FPS of the Year 2001

I’m on a roll! Time to head right into 2001. Just like last time, if you click on the pics, it will bring up a youtube movie of the game, so as to save loading time for the page. There are 23 games this year, so let’s go!

FPS of the Year – 2000

It’s good to be back! Where have I gone? Well, ah, nowhere, BUT THAT’S NOT IMPORTANT! It’s time for another GoTY and we’re going to kick it back off with FPS of the Year 21st century! Now this time there won’t be movies this time unless you click on the pictures (where I can find […]

You Love It, I Hate It – Chrono Cross

I’m hoping this will be a new series I can get going and I’m starting with something that, as will be a trend in this series, people seem to universally love, but I just can’t “get:” Chrono Cross.

A Xeno Retrospective

Xenogears was a fan-fucking-tastic game. In fact, if you’ll recall it won RPG of the Year for me that year. I cannot honestly speak more higher of it.

PatMan Picks N64 classics. Star Wars Shadows Of The Empire.

Star Wars Shadows Of The Empire is yet another example of my fondness of expanding the Star Wars universe into  interactive video game form. I am particularly fond of this title as it released near the very launch of the N64, was very ambitious for its time, and turned out to be great fun. Lucas Arts would develop better looking […]

The War On.. Video Game o-Mania, Falcons And Stars

Welcome to the War for another week. In this column, I bring you my reviews of Dead Island and NHL 12, plus some comments on the Dallas Stars and the Atlanta Falcons. So, without further adieu, as it is a long column (I should know, I wrote this piece after I wrote the reviews), I […]

Starting Fresh

So about a month ago I was desperately trying to finish up Shin Megami Tensei – Digital Devil Saga – Episode 1 (say that three times fast) and I was rapidly getting bored. “No,” I thought, “I must finish this! I want to hurry up so I can sell it and play something else! I […]

How To Not Suck At Team Fortress 2

I’m going to assume you’re reading this for one of three possible reasons. One, you’re still new to Team Fortress 2 and you’re not really sure what you’re doing, frustrated, etc. Two, you’re not new, but you could use some pointers. Or three, you just read shit I post. Honestly, this FAQ of sorts is […]
