E3 2013 – My Thoughts on the E3 Nintendo Direct

E3 2013 – My Thoughts on the E3 Nintendo Direct

First there was Microsoft's press conference, then there was Sony's, and now Nintendo's... sort of. For the first time ever, rather than host a press conference at E3, the company opted to instead deliver its big announcements through a Nintendo Direct broadcast-- and...

PMO Needs Your Help!

PMO Needs Your Help!

And by "PMO," I mean "I need your help." Same difference. For a while, I've built up something of a backlog of different topics I've been wanting to write about here. Between trying to decide on which ones to do and all of my other responsibilities, they've largely...

The Big Haul for May 2013

I don't get to go out shopping for fun stuff very often, and even when I do, the hauls aren't always great. But I recently had the opportunity to hit several places in Toronto, and found that I had a pretty good haul, so I decided to share here. Starting from least to...

From the Other Side: One Year Later

From the Other Side: One Year Later

Following his views on the E3 2012 press conferences of the "Big Three," Lanceheart joins us again one year later to share his views on how things have moved along. Here we are, on the verge of E3 2013. Gaming has changed quite a bit since this time in 2012 and...

Review Round-Up – 5/30/13

This is a bit overdue, even though I can't tell whether anyone really reads these things (there are never any comments, at any rate), but better late than never. Here's some of what I've been up to, and check back soon, as I'd like to be a little more active here, and...

My Idea for Sonic’s Next Title

My Idea for Sonic’s Next Title

Sonic Generations has paved the way for a game long awaited by many fans. It was not too long ago that the very thought of Sonic and longtime rival Mario appearing together in the same game seemed highly improbable, if not impossible. Then we were all surprised by the...

Wow, another month has passed already? Here are the latest reviews I've written, and expect to see plenty more in the near future with a new gig I'll reveal in due time (hint: It's not iPhone/social games this time). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYzxPbsCW_4 Note:...

Debuting on IGN: Second Banana Saga: The Story of Luigi

It's funny, perhaps even poetic, in a way: Whereas my debut article on 1UP was about Mario, my debut article on IGN is instead about his younger brother, Luigi. In "Second Banana Saga: The Story of Luigi," I give a brief look back at Luigi's storied career as the...

Review Round-Up – 3/9/13

Well, my time on 1UP is at an end, as 1UP itself is at an end. That should free me up a bit of time to try to post more here and on my other sites, though it's also a blow to my bank account, which means some time needs to be spent looking for more work. It's a...

Spacebound: How Aliens Shape the EarthBound Story on 1UP

My next article for 1UP has just been posted, but I didn't do it alone-- it was a joint effort with my wife as we continue the 1UP Cover Story "It Came From Outer Space!" with "Spacebound: How Aliens Shape the EarthBound Story." After all, aliens play an integral role...

It's time for another round of "What I've Been Doing Instead of Writing Here!" Hopefully I can do more later today, but for now: From Slide to Play: Wheel of Fortune - A solid representation of the game show which is celebrating its 30th anniversary. Ghostbusters -...

Why We’re Excited About 2013 on 1UP

Over on 1UP, I got to participate in the recent Cover Story "Why We're Excited About 2013," an optimistic look at what is to come in the next year of gaming. And for my part, I was able to contribute not one, not two, but four articles to the cause: Tomb Raider -...
