i played age of mythology all the way through on moderate during the last few weeks. i also finished all of the golden gift bonus scenario on moderate. however, i cheated on the final mission of the golden gift – “loki’s temples”. i felt like that mission was a bit unbalanced. the computer opponent mass […]
i started playing ME3 this past weekend and i’ve put about 5 hours in. i don’t think i’ve put enough time in to get a good feel of the gameplay yet, but i will try to notate my first impressions. the combat appears to be a refined version of ME2’s system. you’re meant to fight […]
i enjoyed the first two diablo games on the PC, particularly diablo 2. i finished both of the games legitimately quite a few years ago. every now and then i’ll load up D2 for a replay…the last time was about 3 years ago. even though i still think highly of the game i believe there […]
i imported my level 50 character from ME1 to ME2. i played several hours worth of ME2 this weekend. there’s about to be SPOILERS peppered throughout this. i was surprised (shocked is too strong) by the opening sequence. the normandy1 was what i thought of as “home” in ME1. i was happy to see the […]
i’m playing the first mass effect game now. i’ve been looking forward to playing this ever since finishing kotor1. i’d put kotor1 on my list of best games played ever. mass effect is actually my 3rd bioware game (not counting neverwinter nights because it’s not as dialog driven as other bioware games). the 2nd bioware […]
i was reminiscing about old pc gaming magazines recently and it dawned on me that most of the magazines i loved were by the same publisher (imagine/future). i used to get them from the grocery store and i can recall getting the first issue of cdrom today. cdrom today came with a disc full of […]
i picked up the game 10million for 99 cents in a google play summer sale. i can’t recall what the original price of the game was, but i had seen it around prior to the sale. anyways, it’s a retro styled fast-paced RPG. i hate to use the word “retro”, but i’m going to for […]
i totally adore the first zelda game and regard it as a classic. i never owned a link to the past on the snes, but i did end up renting it back in the day and playing it. i remember playing through a few of the dungeons in the dark world (maybe about 3 of […]
after watching a particular game review on youtube i became reinterested in playing actraiser. unlike most of the games i’m interested in replaying, i don’t really have a long involved history with actraiser. in fact, i remember only renting it for a weekend and becoming quickly disinterested. i don’t think i ever played it past […]
i’ve just begun playing dragon warrior 2. it’s interesting that i never had dragon warrior 2, 3, or 4 when i was kid since i loved the first game so much. i think the reason for that is because nintendo power greatly dictated which games i knew about and which games i became interested in. […]
