World of Goo shows us that you don’t need an overly complicated story or special powers or any other staple of current-gen gaming to have an extremely enjoyable experience. 2D Boy has taken a visually pleasing, simple 2-d look and technically simple game play and created a game that should be held up as an example to all of the struggling game developers out there. What is the message?

A game doesn’t have to break the bank or be a sequel to be fun.

QuakeCon Registration Opens TONIGHT @ 8:30 CST

Posted by Tim On March - 6 - 2009

Just FYI, folks – those going to one of the most badass game conventions of the year in the Dallas area opens registration tonight. If you want to get in on the Bring Your Own Computer (BYOC) farm, you gotta get in early, otherwise you’ll be on the dreaded waiting list. I’ll be attending – you can find me under the user name LRavenwolf. Get your hotels NOW – I’m booking mine tonight when I get home. Not at the Annatole, but down the street at the (I think) Comfort Inn - $60 per night will go quick. See you online folks!

Review of Street Figher II HD Remix

Posted by Tim On February - 24 - 2009

Interestingly enough, I dumped some cash into points the past weekend to purchase Street Fighter II: HD Remix at the recommendation of three different friends who wanted to pwn me old-school. So, being an avid SF:II player back in the day I acquiesced. Ten minutes later I was jumping in to something that made me question my experience from over ten years ago.

Please, if you purchase something from Amazon through my affiliate program, you help keep this site running and alive!

Show the love – you know you want to.

*SITE MAINTENANCE THIS WEEKEND*

Posted by Tim On February - 13 - 2009

Just a heads up, sometime Saturday night or Sunday the site will be down while I perform some maintenance on the site and my other domains. Essentially I’m having trouble getting good stats with my programs because of the way I have it set up. The suggestions I’m getting say that I need to make these changes since this site is now my hub for all others.

Thanks for your patience and I apologize for having to take the site down at all. I will have backups just in case I really screw things up and need to do so.

About Me

Yo I\'m Tim - I love playing games, writing, and giving opinions about games. Bet you probably could have guessed that, eh? I\'m currently studying towards a Game and Simulation Programming degree, hoping to finish by 2012. Its my dream to be in the game industry, doing AI or anything else, really. Meanwhile, I\'ll be here posting about the games I purchase and the games I\'m fortunate enough to be asked to review. If there\'s a game you want to see, drop me a line. Lastly, I’d like to drop a shout to those who\'ve inspired me somewhere along the way: GiantBomb.com, eat-sleep-game.com, cheapassgamer.com. These guys are some of the funniest and most interesting game podcast crews out there and I just want to say thanks for keeping us laughing.
