We entered 2014 with new consoles and new games for those consoles. Well, some of us did. I didn’t get my next-gen console until the holidays, and I didn’t want to buy new games for an aging console (other than Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, which was designed for last generation (Update: Until Today)). For me – 2014… Continue reading
Despite my good intentions, I’ve never really given Dragon Age much time. My BioWare time was monopolized by my Mass Effect addiction and the multiple awesome playthroughs that caused. For all its greatness, Mass Effect kind of broke the way I played RPGs. Paragon or Renegade, make your choice. Even if I was eventually given… Continue reading
I recently made the shift to having my iPad completely dominate my mobile/couch gaming time. I’ll be curious to see if Mario Golf: World Tour can break into my Hearthstone obsession. The math looks right: I love Mario Golf games + it’s been a long ass time since I played Mario Golf or a golf game… Continue reading
Somebody once said that when life throws you lemons, make lemonade. Well, life has thrown me lemons in the form of writer’s block and video game headline apathy, making my usual “Tuesday editorial” nearly impossible to complete (though I have a very scathing opinion on Pokemon in the hopper for next week). So instead of… Continue reading
You can almost feel the storm of major releases rising as news lately is filled with the last bits of confirming details about upcoming releases.

Doombringers and naysayers are littering the forums and game journalism resources because no one really knows what’s going to become of the game industry. It seems the majority is focusing on what publishers, developers, media sources, and even gamers are doing wrong to prevent the game industry from creating stability and a welcoming consumer environment….

The ancient tower loomed over Granseal. During a powerful storm, Slade the Thief removed two jewels from the ancient shrine within. What came next could have been avoided but required heroic feats from a young lad to save Grans Island, and the world, from the Devil King and invading forces of Zeon. Sound familiar? That’s… Continue reading
Maybe the cast has gotten too close recently because things really heat up for Josh, Justin, Ethan and JP this week as they discuss Steam boxes, SNES sports, lazy DLC, game difficulty and the start and end of Mass Effect to the point of making Ethan ill. Super Gaming Best Friends: the podcast where Horrible Night… Continue reading
I have been to the future. I have been to space. For as awesome as the trip was, I’m not sure it was as inspiring as I expected. I did bring back more than a few lessons of Mass Effect. The Lessons of Mass Effect Scientists should steal Elevators get worse Colonial building architecture is… Continue reading
Meanwhile… we’ve actually been playing games. Each week we recap our recent gaming experiences and tell you what we’re looking forward to, so you can use your time more wisely than we have. Surprisingly, not everyone is hanging out in space. Although some of us are hanging out in space times two. Justin G (GiffTor) Right… Continue reading

I’m a huge supporter of video games pushing the boundaries of humor, drama and horror, as there is time and a place for just about anything. However, with my video games being in a centralized location in my home, those boundaries do not necessarily need to be pushed when small children are running around. I… Continue reading
