dragon age inquisition (xbox360/xbox one)

i originally played probably 70% of inquisition (DAI) on the xbox360, this was probably back in 2015. i stopped playing it suddenly when i learned bioware would no longer support the game on the 360 (specifically not release any DLC packs for the platform). i wasn’t too happy about that news at the time. fast […]

destiny (xbox one)

i originally played the destiny beta on the xbox 360. i had fun with it. i wasn’t really that compelled by any of the story elements, but the gameplay, loot grabs, & leveling had me hooked. so i eventually bought destiny pretty late in it’s life cycle (like right before rise of iron came out). […]

army of two: the devil’s cartel (xbox360)

i received this game some time ago for free from games with gold but never played it. not too long ago i wanted to load up a co-op game and the “army of two” name seemed to obviously indicate it was co-op. i didn’t have high hopes for this game as it looked pretty generic. […]

south park: stick of truth (xbox360)

i just got this game and played it all the way through within 2 days. that’s fairly abnormal behavior for me because i usually play games in spurts and i have been known to let a few weeks or months go by between game playing sessions. i really enjoyed this game and this is one […]

final fantasy 7 (ps1)

i have a strange history with ff7. ff6 on the snes was one of my greatest game experiences of all time so it was inevitable that any followup would be disappointing. that kind of thinking never dawned on my bratty 16 year old self. instead, i was all hyped up by the idea of another […]

call of duty: world at war (xbox360)

i bought call of duty: world at war (waw) recently because it was heavily discounted and i generally like games with a ww2 theme. i don’t really have a long history with call of duty games or know terribly much about the franchise. i played COD: finest hour on the original xbox and thought it […]

halo1 (xbox)

halo1 is the game that brought me back into console gaming. i had lost interest in consoles shortly after the playstation1 came out. that’s probably a good 7 years that i ignored console gaming entirely. i played halo for the first time probably in 2003ish at a friend’s house and i thought it was amazing. […]

super mario rpg (snes)

i didn’t own this game when i had an snes but i did rent it. at the time i remember hearing about it in nintendo power and my initial reaction was…wow this is going to be lame. i was a jerky judgmental teenager at the time and the idea of a mario-based rpg didn’t seem […]

fire emblem series

fire emblem (fire emblem 7, gba) the first fire emblem game i ever played. i had a lot of fun with it. i didn’t fully understand how important the rock-paper-scissors combat was when i played this and therefore i probably had a more difficult time than i should have. here i am rambling about it: […]

dragon age 2 (xbox360)

i think i’m about half way through dragon age 2. i really had to force myself through the first couple of hours. i felt the game was so boring in the beginning. it gives you no compelling story and the characters seem bland. you end up doing lots of run here and then run there […]
