Hey! Watch! Mega64 Flashes Some Alan Wake

I was surprised by a few things while tracking down today’s video: 1) Mega64 apparently still does its classic reality videos based on video games, 2) Alan Wake is topical enough to warrant a video at this point, and 3) that Mega64 managed to genuinely scare people instead of just annoying the hell out of them. All for our entertainment. Thank you, Mega64. Somedays I love to be wrong, and mistakenly thinking that Mega64 was done with the style of [...]

The endless value potential of downloadable content (DLC) was one of the most promising features for this generation of video games. Games were finally able to take advantage of online connectivity, but it’s a well stated consensus that the overall quality level of DLC this generation has been quite underwhelming. While the multiplayer side of DLC has found a clearer identity and audience with its map packs and additional game modes, single player DLC is completely unpredictable. What do gamers [...]

It seems with every release season there is a game which surprises you and leave an impression you cannot shake. I met Alan Wake’s American Nightmare with much reservation. When I first heard the story I immediately thought of Stephen King’s The Dark Half main antagonist, George Stark. This is what created a little bit of my reservation. I was a fan of its predecessor, Alan Wake, but both games have vast differences which gives American Nightmare the feeling of something special. Whether or not [...]
