I could write a serious article on some cool theme including science fiction or vloggers. But what do we all really want to see when it’s only the middle of the working week; doggos. The internet, even Facebook, is flooded with animal pictures and videos, so how to narrow it down was hard. Every other pupper […]

Another week, another episode of American Gods. This time we’re going further into slightly uncharted territory, and that’s always a good thing. This week’s episode wasn’t written by Fuller and Green though. It was written by executive producer David Graziano, not that I noticed the change because it was a solid episode. And the director?

Back in 2013, Telltale Games award winning episodic game The Wolf Among Us introduced me to fairy tale comic book series Fables. Upon finishing the game, I spent several weeks reading the Fables Wikia page. And honestly, I fell in love with the world of Fables. Bill Willingham somehow managed to breed new life into many […]

Summer’s here! You know what that means! We all start to feel terrible about our bodies and desperately try to attain a beach body. At least that’s what I’ve been doing. I’ve always had a terrible relationship with exercise, but I’ve decided to change that. And what better way to keep me motivated than with […]

Prey is pretty good. A little rough on the early game difficulty though. It’s the latest game from Arkane Studios, well-known for the Dishonored series. They also developed Bioshock 2. Comparisons to Dishonored and Bioshock are not unfair at all. A lot of the mechanics will be familiar if you’ve played those titles. But more […]
