My 5 Favorite Podcast
It turns out it’s hard to write a game blog when you haven’t played any games. It’s busy season at work which has meant a lot of overtime and very little free time. It also turns out that taking one day off from writing turns into 4 days off. I’ll have to remember that one.…

One More Month of MoviePass
I decided to stick out MoviePass for another month. Last week there was news that, while the service would be only offering 3 movies a month for $10, they would also be doing away with the surge pricing. There wasn’t any answer either way about the new release restrictions. Originally, MoviePass said any movie opening…

This Week in Screenshots: Space, Space, and More Space
No Man’s Sky It’s busy season at work so I haven’t had a ton of time to play games this week. But the time that I did have, I spent in No Man’s Sky. It’s so easy to take great screenshots and I just started playing around with the photo mode. I picked up the…

There Are No Bad Super Hero Games
I’ve never played a bad superhero game. I don’t even know if it’s possible to make one. There’s just something about taking over an iconic characters that instantly makes for an especially enjoyable time. With new Spider-Man game coming to the PS4 this month I got to thinking about what superhero games I’ve played over the…

Introducing Welp Squad TV
Back in February of last year, 4 friends and I decided that we should try this whole Twitch thing. It’s been a great experience so far and we’re still at it a year and a half later. For the longest time I’ve been hesitant to mention that here. For some reason I thought that the…

My Gaming Besties
I’m writing this post much later in the day than usual. Work has been super busy and I’ve been trying to start a new habit of actually going to the boxing club I belong to. It’s all been eating up my usual free time. Thus an evening post instead of a morning post. This…

RMT: You can pay for that?
I just finished reading Play Money by Jullian Dibbell. Half the book talks about the economics of Real Money Trading (RMT) in the early 2000’s and the other half is the author talking about his own foray into RMT with Ultima Online. Apparently there was a lot of money to be made from selling items,…

Double Dipping: Buying games more than once
This weekend I picked up No Man’s Sky on PC after having a ton of fun with it earlier in the week on PS4. It was on sale for $30 which was just in the right price range for me to justify getting it again. I was put off by how poorly it was running…

So Long, Moviepass
Moviepass is a subscription service that lets its users see one movie a day for a flat monthly fee. It’s been around since 2011 and has gone through a lot of pricing changes over the years. In August 2017 they changed their pricing to $9.95 a month and the service took off. They send you…

This Week in Screenshots: Dragons, Fortresses, and Gnomes
I’ve wanted to do something like this for a while because there are a lot of screenshots that don’t make it into posts or their isn’t a whole lot to be said about them except this turned out pretty cool. Plus it’s Saturday and I don’t normally blog on the weekends. I’ve always taken a…

Two Man’s Sky
Back in 2016, when the hype train was rolling in, I tempered my expectations for No Man’s Sky. Don’t get me wrong, I was super excited and even preordered it so I could play right at release. Unlike the general public, I got exactly what I was expecting and wanted. It just turns out that…

Backlogged: Tales of Zestiria
As I mentioned a little while ago, Tales of Zestiria is the first JRPG I’ve played in a very long time. The last one I played was Final Fantasy back in January 2017. I picked it and it’s prequel-sequel Tales of Berseria up during the Steam sale because I had wanted to play them for…
