As most of you may know, I was pretty excited about playing through Blood Dragon this week, so I took a tiny break from Cheap and Dirty Gamer, tiny in the sense that while I did pick a game (or Justin did), I didn’t get a chance to play through it and give my thoughts…. Continue reading
After playing through BioShock Infinite, I had my doubts about whether or not people of vastly different backgrounds could actually come together for the common good of humanity. After playing Deadly 30, I’ve come to the conclusion that people of vastly different backgrounds can come together to accomplish a task, as long as that task… Continue reading
I woke up this morning to find I had some new items in my Steam inventory, which is always an exciting thing. Opening it up, I saw that I had a coupon for a “match 3” style puzzle/RPG called Dungeon Hearts. I’m not sure how it got there, but for a second I thought that… Continue reading
So this is going to be a first for Cheap and Dirty Gamer; I didn’t really like this week’s game. I tend to screen games a bit more thoroughly beforehand, which is why most of the games are at least entertaining, but I took a chance on Shattered Haven because it looked to be taking… Continue reading
When I was given the option to choose the crew that’d be accompanying me on my trip through Organ Trail: Director’s Cut, it was only natural that I’d bring along the bros from Horrible Night. Most of them seem to have cool, travel worthy skills and besides that, we could talk about video games on… Continue reading
Should one judge the game Lazerman merely by looking at the art above, they’d more than likely think that Lazerman was but a cheap Mega Man ripoff in the guise of a browser game. While the over-sized head and helmet do strike an uncanny resemblance to the legendary “Blue Bomber”, the similarities end there. Somehow, the game’s protagonist got involved with… Continue reading
When I first started playing Qoosh, the similarities to the Portal series were quite apparent, to an almost obnoxious level. You’re a test subject with the power to teleport yourself from place to place and must use this power to avoid obstacles while a snarky, omnipresent voice goads you deeper into a lab of some kind. Had… Continue reading
BMX bikes, stunts, big jumps, robots, and Rick Astley. Do I really need to say more? FINE! This week’s Cheap and Dirty Gamer features Cyclomaniacs Epic, a game about saving the Earth from an invading fish alien though BMX greatness. At least that’s what I think it was about (and no, I’m not being facetious). Cheap… Continue reading
Throughout time, gamers have had numerous opportunities to take control of horrifying beasts and run around doing things that horrible beasts tend to do. We’ve been indoctrinated to believe that once given the reigns of monsters, we should go on rampages and destroy everything in our paths, never once considering that perhaps we have a choice in… Continue reading
When I think of vikings, I think of blood-thirsty ultra-warriors with a penchant for ignoring pain and cutting off heads. After playing a few matches in The Banner Saga’s stand alone multiplayer component The Banner Saga: Factions, I realized that I was going to need to utilize a bit more strategy outside of running towards… Continue reading
Babies have horrible lives. Not only do they have to rely on others to do everything for them, they are unbelievably ill-equipped for handling situations where supernatural entities are involved. Baby Blues brings this to light better than any game I’ve ever played. Not only do I never want to be a baby again, I’m… Continue reading
If your Valentine’s Day has sucked so far, you’re in store for quite the treat as I take you through the English Patient of monster truck games with Monster Truck Trip 3 by nonamelab. Watch as I lather on a heavy layer of stunts, drama and sensuality. If you prefer diesel over pussier forms of gasoline,… Continue reading
