  • Titanfall Book

    A few weeks ago I won the March Madness contestĀ run by the DLC gaming podcast. This awesome book, The Art of Titanfall, my prize, just arrived! I got several wrong in the early rounds (I was generally favoring influential classics over maybe the best game experiences), but correctly called Super Mario 64 beating Portal in […]

  • Top 200 Video Games of All Time According to Game Informer

    Introduction Oh yeah, I have a blog! Lots has been going on in the intervening months (see my Twitter feed for short attention span details), but I figured a video game post during NaBloPoMo would be a good way to get back on the wagon, even if I’m not actually posting every day during November.
