Ubisoft and Polish developer brought to the gaming world a first person shooter that went head to head with the top rated Western Genre, GUN. Now, anyone that knows me, will know I like me some good spagetti western goodness. Obviously, in that I’ve plotted out a series of stories that [...]

Gamers Bargain Bin: Carnivores Series
Posted in Opinion, randomness, tagged computers, games on July 7, 2009 | 1 Comment »
There was one series of games I never really got into, and that was hunting games. But there was one hunting game that I actually liked. That was a small series called Carnivores. In total there were four games in the series; Carnivores, Carnivores 2, Carnivores Ice Age and Carnivores Cityscape. We’ll deal with the [...]
Gamer’s Bargain Bin: Neverwinter Nights
Posted in Opinion, tagged computers, games on June 25, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
A game has staying power when it’s still being played nine years after it’s release. Sure there’s a lot of games that have the staying power, but Neverwinter Nights had the staying power and the population that gave it the staying power. With two expansions retail and one community expansion, it did very well. More [...]
Gamer’s Bargain Bin: Guild Wars
Posted in Opinion, tagged computers, games on June 18, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Years ago I ran a site which had some bargain bin choices for games. There were a few there, and I’ll bring them back with this column here. Today, however, I’ll kick things off with Guild Wars.
Having been around for four years helps out a lot. Having a good player base during those four years [...]
Playing a game of life

After over a year of debating, I finally broke down and picked up the Sims 2. This may come as odd, after all, Sims 3 is officially released today. From what I’ve seen, however, Sims 2 still has a long shelf life for playability. The game, mind you, is extremely different that [...]
The Way I See It: Dude! Chill out!

After a long day at work (a satisfyingly long day at work) it’s good to come home, kick back and relax. Make myself some supper, have a cold one, especially now that the weather has gotten warmer, and do some household chores, watch a movie or even log onto one of the MMO’s I play.
Yeah, [...]
Who is the Tank

I’m a fan of the classic Abbott and Costello skit of Who’s on First. It’s been recreated a few times, but this video I found at Stupidvideos.com has got to be one of the best I’ve seen in a long, long time.
This is a WOW recreation of the classic Abbot and [...]

There’s been talk about a new game out, brought to the computer gaming world by Electronic Arts and Maxis called Spore. The game allows you to create not just a character, like many other online games have you do, but the entire society and planet of the race that character comes from. You [...]
Buildin’

One of the joys of gaming happens to be the building that comes along with it. In many games, you can create your own content, and add a bit of your own flavour to the world you play a game in. One such game is Neverwinter Nights from Bioware. Based on the [...]
The Man Show

It was a tradeshow dedicated to everything men. Campers, RV’s, ATV’s, SUV’s, food, beer, recreation, and yes, even a fashion show. Okay, some might say “Fashion show. That has nothin’ ta do with men!” No, but it could be argued that it wasn’t so much the clothes, but what was wearing [...]
