Let’s play Spelunky!

This one’s a whopper, gang: 22 parts, and most of those run the full ten minutes. The whole thing is almost three and a half hours long, which is actually pretty short for an off-the-cuff Spelunky LP.

Hilariously, in the several weeks it’s taken me to upload all these videos at my one-a-day rate […]

Vlog #013: Creatures of habit.

Our FF4 sequel was better. (part three)

Part Three: The Story

Don’t worry, I’m not going to provide a step-by-step account of the entire game’s story, start to finish. (Although we kept such good notes that I could, if I wanted to.) Instead, I’ll just summarize the important conflict, describe how the heroes get caught up in it, and finally get around […]

I’d just like to leave some information with you…

From 2005 to 2008 I maintained a blog about my experiences working in the drug test industry. Every Sunday I revive one of those experiences here. The following was originally posted December 5, 2005.

I’d just like to leave some information with you… This time of year, the pee clinic sees more solicitors […]

A recipe.

Back when I played World of Warcraft I used to keep a blog for my adorable gnome warlock. Every Saturday I share another of her adventures here. The following was originally posted October 23, 2006

A recipe.

A couple of jerkwads have pulled me aside recently and in no uncertain terms made it known […]

E3 2009

I don’t freebase video game news like a lot of my comrades do; I pretty much just absorb the stuff I like and let the rest roll off my back. So when E3 comes around I tend to focus just on the stuff I’m excited about and not dwell so much on the stuff that […]

Our FF4 sequel was better! (part two)

Part Two: Our Cast

When designing the cast for Crystal Sonata we had a couple specific goals in mind. First, we wanted to introduce some of the more modern skillsets and job types into the FF4 universe, such as Blue Magic. Second, we wanted a “rotating party” design, like FF4, so you would meet a […]

Our FF4 sequel was better. (part one)

Final Fantasy IV: The After Years is pure, uncut fanwankery. This is the kind of game you chop up on a mirror and snort through a rolled-up $20. If you’re a fan of FF4 it is impossible to play this sequel and not enjoy it at least from a “squee! all my favorite characters on […]

Vlog #012: Video games! VIDEO GAMES!

HEY GUY DID YOU KNOW I PLAY VIDEO GAMES SOMETIMES? IT IS TRUE.

New stuff!

This weekend has been a smorgasbord of entertainment!

Up was fantastic. It says something about a movie studio when you walk out of every single one of their films thinking, “Wait, was that their best one yet?” I’m sure there are heated discussions throughout the internet attempting to pin down which of Pixar’s masterpieces is, […]
