From 8-bit to whatever-the-hell-bit we are in right now, plug in and take a ride with us.
(Editor’s Note: Join us in our second installment of Mario Monday!) Last week on Mario Monday, we explored his evolution from supporting Jumpman to main character of his own line of successful games. This week, we continue with an analysis of some of the games from other genres that star everyone’s favorite plumber. maybe we […]
(Editor’s Note: As part of our relaunch and month long celebration of all things Mario, on Mario Mondays we will be taking a trip through the history of everyone’s favorite plumber.) Every week, we are going to explore a different era as defined by us, of the Mario Games. Maybe we will compare them to
(Editor’s Note #1: Rock and roll is just a terrible foundation upon which to build a city.) (Editor’s Note #2: Minecraft? You mean that Lego rip off game? I don’t understand the appeal.) My thoughts on Minecraft mirrored those in the second editor’s note. Admittedly, they came from ignorance, but that’s how I felt. I
(Editor’s Note: The boys and I are trying to get on a regular recording schedule for the podcast. Chris also came up with the idea of going to a quarterly schedule for the main show, so I’m inspired and ready to tackle this thing full force again. ) Relaunching our brand over the holidays proved
(Editor’s Note: …in all the wrong places? Okay, clever (?) title aside, here’s a TLDR. Do you like Magic? Do you like Puzzle Quest? If your answer is yes to both of these, then give the game a try.) I’ve discussed the Puzzle Quest line of games on the page. For those of you who
(Editor’s Note: The Noob of All Trades goes back to the future of two years ago to finally maybe join the present of video games.) Regular visitors to the page (shout out to the both of you!) know that Chris and I are traditionalists–grumpy old men–when it comes to games, especially video games. We have
Battle for Zendikar is such a terrible set. Even the casual guy in me can’t get into it. Sure, there’s Newlamog, Ob Nixilis, Gideon, and a handful of decent green ramp spells, but after that it’s just a set full of failed mechanics. Don’t hate the game, hate the set. Speaking of Zendikar, have you
(Note: Gotta catch ’em all? Yeah, right. I couldn’t catch ’em all when there were only 150 of ’em. I have no chance at this point.) On this month’s Noob and Sons (recorded over the weekend and most likely to be posted later in the week), we dedicated the whole show to Pokemon. The crazy
Shining in the Darkness (Sega Genesis): Don’t be fooled by the “Shining” name, this game isn’t anything like Shining Force (2 of the best games for the Genesis by the way). This RPG is unique as it’s entirely in “3-D” first person. The story is pretty generic..you and 2 friends, a warrior and a mage,
Howdy gang! I don’t have a clever intro this month so let’s just get right to it.. -It’s funny how playing MTG with competitive players changes how you play the game yourself. I recently joined a group consisting of two other guys who are regulars at essentially every tournament in the area. After a few
