Posted on September 12th, 2011 by
Games like Halo and Call of Duty get launch parties, but why not Kirby? Well, Kirby Mass Attack is being released next week, so in honor of that (and my birthday this week), we’re going to have a Kirby launch party and birthday bash right here with a blog about some of my favorite Kirby stuff!
Cary and Jeff’s PAX Adventures (Day 3)
Posted on August 29th, 2011 by
The final day of PAX was just for some last-minute meetings and tying up loose ends, as we had to leave a little early for the trip home. So here are some final thoughts on the last day of the show. Boy am I tired! Oh yeah, over on the right, that’s a picture of our view of Seattle from our hotel room. Pretty nice, huh?

On Day 2 of PAX, I had meetings with Sega, Twisted Pixel, Wizards of the Coast, and others. I discovered that the best part of Nintendo’s booth wasn’t even in their booth at all! And check out Seattle’s most germiest tourist attraction as well as the best hot dog stand in the world! Click to read about all this and more!
Cary and Jeff’s PAX Adventures (Day 1)
Posted on August 29th, 2011 by
PAX, or Penny Arcade Expo, is a three-day video game convention open to the public. It was started by the folks who made the Penny Arcade Web comic. They have two a year, one in Boston and one in Seattle. This last weekend was the PAX in Seattle. As I’ve done now for four years, I went to the show in Seattle and this time I brought along my brother Jeff and we had a lot of fun! So here’s a three-part picture blog of all the stuff we did there!
Cary’s Fall Forecast: Sunny With a Chance of PAX!
Posted on August 22nd, 2011 by
Man, August has been a S-L-O-W month for games! I hardly reviewed anything new this month! But looking forward into the fall season, starting around my birthday, there are tons of games coming out in time for the holidays. So I figured I’d write a blog about the ones I’m looking forward to playing and reviewing.
GenCon 2011 Report
Posted on August 10th, 2011 by
Since I’m nearly local, I make an annual journey down to Indianapolis once a year to visit GenCon, one of the largest gaming conventions in the U.S., and one of the most important for board game and role playing game fans. This year, my family conveniently scheduled a reunion for the same weekend but I still managed to attend for the first day of the convention. What follows is a small excerpt of some of the more interesting games I came across. For details on some more obscure titles, visit my photo-centric overview over at the blog Opinionated Gamers.
Batman Arkham Revisited
Posted on July 6th, 2011 by
Batman Arkham Asylum is one of the best games ever made, period. I knew that while playing it and while voting for it in various Game of the Year articles. I’m very excited about Arkham City. I knew I wanted more. But absence, time, and mediocre games can dull the memory a bit and I decided to do something I almost never, and never really could, do. I’m playing a game a second time.
Super Mario Fruit Snacks

So we were at the grocery store today and I saw this: Super Mario fruit snacks. Of course I had to buy them. You know you’re popular when you get your own fruit snacks. So let’s take a look at what these are.
Heavy Rain (isn’t gonna fall)
Posted on June 22nd, 2011 by
Should I keep playing Heavy Rain? I’m not far in. I just completed the PI’s first investigation – should I continue?
