  • Spoiler Night – Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End

    Justin and Aaron weren’t sure how necessary another Uncharted game was, but Uncharted 4 proved to be the most essential game in the series. It’s almost as surprising as engineering skills that pirates apparently possess. Horrible Night on SoundCloud RSS Feed iTunes Feed Google Play Stitcher Feed Show Notes You have been warned. This is…

  • Testing Slime Rancher – And Business is Great

    I don’t cave on Early Access games too often these days, but Slime Rancher has been calling to me for months now. I got a bit anxious for its full release, put on my biggest hat and belt buckle, grabbed my vaccum, said, "Ah, that’s close enough," and finally opened my ranch for business. It…

  • Game Curious Quake 20th Anniversary Episode – My Favorite Nail Gun

    A new episode for Quake 1 is available in celebration of the game’s 20th Anniversary. Justin finally has a great excuse to revisit one of his favorite shooters of all time.

  • Game Curious Brigador – At a Destructive Pace

    Justin steels himself to learn the controls of a new mech… then a new tank… then a new plane. His struggles and confusion do give way to some pixelated explosion perfection so all is well with Brigador. Previous Brigador Experience Saw some gifs on itch.io and Tumblr a while back that looked amazing. I like…

  • Played Hitman: What’s Before Training?

    After my third or fourth death not far from where the first mission begins, it struck me that I had never played a true Hitman game (sorry, GO). Most of this was due to my original Nintendo allegiances, but also because I went through a phase around Metal Gear Solid 2 where I was exhausted…

  • Memory Leak: Gorf

    At 35, I wasn’t around for the rise of the video arcade, but I was certainly around for its heyday. This included the beginning of the end of the basic but fantastically bright vector display screens of Asteroids and Battlezone giving way to the raster displays of Pac-Man and Dig-Dug.^ As a little kid, before…

  • Started Doomsday Clicker – Counting Up to the Apocalypse

    In my constant search to find games to play when I don’t want to play a game, I have embraced idle games. I got in a bit too deep last year and it has been a few months since I last lost myself in the euphoria of ever increasing numbers. I have found a new…

  • Doom – Gamethrough First Episode

    There’s no time, we have to go, Doom is here. Justin is on Mars and there are demons and guns. Can’t stop. Go. Why am I playing DOOM Because what exactly is DOOM in 2016? They probably shouldn’t have made this game right? I need to see this. In all seriousness, all the trailers in…

  • Proof We Were Wrong: Doom

    DOOM is here! Without any early reviews leaking out and only a multiplayer beta (that some of us couldn’t run) to go off of, we have a lot of concerns gnashing their teeth at our giddy nostalgia. So here we go, as ignorant, as hopeful, or as cynical as we may be – let’s make…

  • Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End – Gamethrough First Episode

    Justin crashes into his old pal, Nathan Drake, who seems to have a brother now. We can worry about that later though after we survive this storm. Why am I playing Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End Because 4 years is my limit on gaming without a new Nathan Drake adventure. It just came out and…
