Release Dates Mean Nothing
I’ve criticized video game companies a lot in my articles. I’ve written about their poor decisions in creating 3D games. I’ve called out publishers on their childish habits of crying do-over with every long-running series. I’ve even talked about the pointlessness of system start-up screens. (And, of course, I didn’t miss the chance to throw [...]
Diablo III Review
Genre: Action RPG Developer: Blizzard Entertainment Publisher: Blizzard Entertainment Systems: Windows, Mac OS X Release Year: 2012 Well I’ve been blabbing about it for months, may as well spill my guts on this game. The long long wait was worth it, while it appears many were left disappointed with the return of Diablo after [...]
Early Swirly – New Releases This Week: 05-14-2012
Another convention is behind me, and now for another Early Swirly (I have to stop making a habit of this). First, however, I want to take a moment to thank everyone who stopped by my table at the Bronx Heroes Comic Con on Saturday. Your support is always appreciated. As for the Swirly, there are [...]
Early Swirly – New Releases This Week: 05-07-2012
I’m going to be brutally honest with all of you: This week is merely a filler week in the world of gaming as far as I’m concerned. This week is an obstacle and obstruction to get to next week; a week that will truly be one of the greatest weeks in all recorded and unrecorded [...]
Diablo II – Review
Genre: Action RPG, MMORPG Developer: Blizzard North Publisher: Blizzard Entertainment Systems: PC, Mac OS Release Year: 2000 Since we are quickly approaching the glorious 3rd coming of the Lord of Destruction himself, I feel it’s only appropriate to review the game that really put this franchise on the map. The sequel to the original Diablo really expanded upon [...]
Early Swirly – New Releases This Week: 03-05-2012
As we approach the end of the first quarter of 2012, we finally are going to get a taste of some of the most anticipated releases of the entire year. Two of Teach’s big picks arrive this week in the form of Mass Effect 3 and Street Fighter X Tekken. Hopefully you have nothing on [...]
Early Swirly – New Releases This Week: 01-09-2012
It’s a new year, folks, and we are rolling 2012 in with style! Just look at the titles for this week: Amy! Zen Pinball3D! We even have the return of Carmen Sandiego (I’m sure The Farr will be happy for the trip back to the ’90s)! How could you possibly be disappointed with a stellar [...]
Early Swirly 2012 – Upcoming Releases This Year
We say “this” year in the title, because well, let’s face it, 2011 is over. Out with the old and in with the new. As 2011 comes to a close, it is time to look at what 2012 brings us. We have tons of highly anticipated games coming even after the amazing Fall season we [...]
Early Swirly – New Releases This Week: 12-05-2011
Bleak isn’t a strong enough word to describe my mood when I saw the releases for this week. I guess this close to Christmas the gaming companies are hanging their hats a little early. Sure there are more than enough games coming out this week to fill up an Early Swirly (unlike Teach’s recent Swirly [...]
Early Swirly – New Releases This Week: 09-26-2011
Another week in video game releases and again there’s no shortage of titles. From sports games to RPGs, this week is pack with yet another getting-close-to-the-Holiday-season smorgasbord of games. In fact, I even had a little trouble picking the list for this week (oh, how I’m going to dread the Spring next year when the [...]
