Ever since I can remember, people have been talking about the importance of saving the rainforest While being full of beautiful and rare flora/fauna (and possible cures for all kinds of diseases), it would appear that the most important aspect of preserving these large groupings of exotic trees is due to the fact that they’re responsible for providing quite a bit of our breathable air. I love breathable air, super medicines and all sorts of wacky plants and animals, but the [...]

Last year, Dead Island and Techland gave gamers one hell of a zombie playground. Its sandbox gameplay and brutal first-person combat left its savage mark in the crowded zombie game genre. It should come as no surprise that the developers were having as much fun with their game engine as our co-op parties were. As it turns out, some of the team was working on a weapon mod that incorporated magic spells and medieval weaponry. I’m guessing the mod was [...]

When I was In college, my buddy and I drank way too much everclear one night and found ourselves thirsting for adventure. We were both students at Purdue University in West Lafayette, IN at the time, so worthwhile adventure-themed exploits were tough to come by. We eventually settled on exploring what we hoped was going to be a vast network of underground tunnels, filled to the brim with treasure and other artifacts of great interest. What we found was that [...]

As some of you may know from previous articles/podcasts, I’ll be embarking on an international adventure at the end of the summer. My wife, the perpetual ladder climber that she is, has accepted a really great position within her company, a position that requires us to move from Indianapolis, Indiana to Berlin, Germany for about 2 to 3 years. As great as this move will be for us (both financially and in reference to the experiences we’ll have) I had [...]

It Doesn’t Matter: Hitman: Absolution Trailer Did Not Need to Whore Itself Out

When I first saw the new Hitman: Absolution trailer (below) I was a bit underwhelmed. I didn’t like it. It didn’t draw me in to the game. Nothing about it stood out that says, “This game is different from the rest beyond the main character – Agent 47.” Now much of the internet is outraged by the misogynistic, sexual exploitation of women as Agent 47 effortlessly dispatches them in excruciating detail. I, however, didn’t perceive it in this way, but now that [...]

With the release of Resident Evil: Revelations and the ever enticing prospects of Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City, there’s a lot for Resident Evil fans to be excited about in 2012. However, should you be a Resident Evil purist, there’s quite a bit to be concerned about as well, especially when looking at the direction that Resident Evil 6 may be heading. Being that Revelations is a handheld game and the squad based mechanics of RE:ORC couldn’t be further from [...]
