I’m still playing turn-based, tactical, strategy-RPG Fire Emblem: Awakening on the 3DS. Have been, off and on, since it launched. Suffice to say I love the game. I’ve actually got two games running at the same time. The one I started first is in “Classic Mode.” Fire Emblem traditionally has [...]
Last night I finished the “Main Storyline” for Defiance. Or at least the main storyline as it stands now; I expect we’ll see more in the months to come. I still have lots of side quests to do, pursuits to finish, weapons and vehicles to level… and hopefully starting next [...]
Defiance has been out for 19 days as of today. I don’t think there’s been a day when I didn’t log in, which is pretty unusual for me. Raptr says I’m at 57 hours but for the first few days of launch week I wasn’t running Raptr since I was [...]
I keep meaning to write up a big fat blog post about Defiance, but every time I think about doing so, I realize I could instead spend that time playing, so that’s what I do. That’s the mark of a game that’s an excellent fit for me; I play it [...]
I’m super excited for the launch of Defiance on Tuesday, but that excitement put me in a kind of gaming no-man’s land this weekend. I felt like playing an MMO but knew that come Tuesday I’d be moving to Defiance in a major way. I just needed a short-term diversion. [...]

You’ve probably seen this already but just in case… it’s an ad for the upcoming Star Trek shooter I guess. I originally spotted this on Joystiq.
Daedalic is probably best know for their adventure game Deponia (a genre we’ve already established that I suck at) so I haven’t been paying them much heed, but today a press release came over the transom that got my attention. They’ve announced a new turn-based fantasy game, Blackguards. You put [...]
Digging the art style… reminds me a bit of a cross between Free Realms and WoW. Plenty of hype in there. I’m not sure if they can live up to it but I’m keeping upbeat. And to quote Dusty Monk, Of Course I’ll Play It
I have to admit I’m getting a little tired of hearing from Ouya‘s Julie Uhrman. I think she’s in danger of over-exposing herself and Ouya, if she hasn’t already. Luckily it’s only 8 days until Kickstarterer’s Ouya units ship and then we see for ourselves how good (or bad) the [...]
