infrequently updated… like my mind
From the category archives:
In an effort to revitalize this blog, I have decided to write about one of my favorite things: World of Warcraft. (Thanks to Dan for suggesting the topic of my first few posts!) To start off, I’d like to talk about WoW interface addons; this post will be the first in what will probably be [...]

It’s now a few weeks since the launch of Richard Garriott’s Tabula Rasa, and I’m enjoying it quite a bit — in small doses, at least. It’s sort of a hybrid game, combining the character development and gear collection of an MMORPG with continuous action combat that draws by the FPS genre. As such, it’s [...]

If you like portable gaming (or the PSP, at least) and tactical RPGs, it seems like this fall will be a good time to practice your time and money management skills. With four titles in the genre on the PSP as well as one (and maybe more, I probably missed some) on the DS arriving [...]

Looking through this site’s web statistics, I noticed that there are a few topics which are consistently (if infrequently) producing incoming search traffic. One of those is, apparently, profiles for the Nostromo N52 gaming controller, which I reviewed here a long time ago. I don’t actually use the N52 any more; these days I use [...]

I haven’t been posting much lately, because I have been enjoying World of Warcraft, the new massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) from Blizzard. Well, okay, perhaps “enjoying” is a bit of an understatement — “addicted” might be a better word, given that it is consuming all of my spare time (which normally would be [...]

Since the introduction of the GameBoy platform fifteen years ago, Nintendo’s domination of handheld video gaming has been virtually unassailable. In that time, many other handheld game platforms have come and gone, none of them able to match the GameBoy’s popularity. Now, as the portable gaming market matures, Nintendo is trying to maintain that success [...]

Since The Fellowship of the Ring opened in theaters in 2001, several games based on The Lord of the Rings have been released. Lord of the Rings: The Third Age is the most recent of these, and it is quite different from the others. The others are, for the most part, firmly in the hack-and-slash [...]
