Silent Hill Shattered Memories

Shattered Memories Initial Impressions
Growing up, I always had a special affinity for Silent Hill… mainly because I saw someone play it when I was a kid and then I had nightmares. And nightmares. And maybe once I thought Pyramid Head was going to kill me. The local police totally forgave me for the one assault [...]

More Facebook Apps – Pet Society

Pet Society
All right Facebook, we get it. You have games. WILL IT EVER END? Pet Society is one of the most tolerable ones out there… so Facebook, I’m going to let your annoying plethora of games slide this time.
What is Pet Society?

Another Facebook Application – Happy Aquarium

Happy Aquarium
Oh God, another Facebook game. You simply cannot get away from these MF-ers. If you took all of the time that people play Facebook games instead of working, I wonder how much it’d add up to? I’m guessing $20 billion.
What is Happy Aquarium?
Happy Aquarium is another one of those retardedly popular Facebook games… and [...]

Facebook Application – FarmVille

As a gamer, I have to acknowledge that apps have pretty much taken over social networking.

Navi’s Last Stand

Ahhh, bliss. I know there were quite a few times during Ocarina of Time where I was two seconds from throwing my controller at the screen, just as long as it’d shut Navi the fuck up. Vengeance is sweet.

99 Best FREE Games of 2009

Facebook and MySpace offer a plethora of free games to try. It’s overwhelming, really. So because of all of these free games available through social networking sites, independent game [...]

Holy Shit – I Want a Ghost Mask

If I had a specific reason to wear a balaclava I’d buy one of these puppies immediately. )Seeing the I live in Northeast Ohio and the weather tends to get a little vicious in January, maybe I should get one of these anyway.) Modeled after Modern Warfare 2’s “Ghost” character’s mask, these hoods provide both [...]

Top 16 Video Game Heroines

We all know the drill here… you sit down to play a nice, innocent game and you get smacked in the face by virtual boobs the size of the moon. Part of you thinks “Now wait a second! Physiologically, a woman of this size and stature would not be able to stand up straight with [...]

The Chick is Back

After a not-so-brief hiatus, I am back. I discovered that months of dedication to academia really isn’t good for the soul. My true calling lies in carpal tunnel syndrome and other gaming-related injuries. It’s just what is natural and right. Like the birds and the bees, squirrels and nuts, zombies and shotguns. I have missed [...]
