Day 16 – Longest Session Played This one’s a bit tougher, so I’d probably have to go with “one of my college games.” The Friday ones were structured that everyone would meet up at the student rec center at 6pm, and then we’d run until it closed at midnight. That was a “short” night. I usually … More #RPGaDAY2015 Day 16 – Longest Game Session Played
Day 15 – Longest Campaign Played I’m currently fighting a long-running bout of game entropy where it doesn’t seem like we can play the same campaign for more than six months, so this is an interesting one. I’ve always liked the idea of the long-running campaign that gives ample time for character and plot growth, … More #RPGaDAY2015 Day 15 – Longest Campaign Played
Day 13 – Favorite RPG Podcast Prepare to be underwhelmed: I don’t listen to podcasts. Never been a huge fan of audiobooks. I’d rather read an article or a post and not have it droned at me.

It was pretty obvious Samsung wasn’t thrilled with the reaction to their $300 Galaxy Gear smartwatch, given how they learned from that criticism and remade their line into the more colorful and attractive Galaxy Fit and Galaxy Gear 2. Both using its new Tizen operating system, which is like Android in that it’s a Linux-based SDK … More This. This Is How You Do A Smartwatch.
I try to refrain from blogging about Kickstarters I’m interested in, but when I found out about Red Hook Studios’ Darkest Dungeon a few weeks ago, I was more than impressed. It’s a PC rogue-alike RPG with a distinctively gothic crowquill art style and heavy influences from the likes of Lovecraft and Poe. The hand-drawn art … More [Kickstarter] Darkest Dungeon
It’s safe to say that while Half-Life wasn’t the first first-person-shooter, it was the first first-person-shooter. By which I mean Half-Life made everyone stop and think about how we do shooters, and reinvented the wheel, at a time when nobody knew the wheel needed reinventing. Back in 1998, we were a pitiful, primitive people, and … More A History of Violence – Half-Life
Words really cannot do justice to this game; it must be seen to be understood. Its trailer captures and relates the spirit of the game: It is the future! The year is 2007. The apocalypse has had an apocalypse. Remember those old trashy action movies that used to come on after dark on cable, … More A History of Violence – Far Cry: Blood Dragon
