#MadMonday: Open-World Living (@peagle05)
This is my first and likely only Mad Monday post, as I don’t get really bothered much by things in the gaming world, but there is one thing that has been eating at me. I promise I won’t keep you long, but Ubisoft recently released the open world game The Division and my time with…
Firewatch Review
Firewatch is a recently released first person adventure indie title from Campo Santo. The idea behind this game is exploration combined with a mystery. The game starts off with a choose your response style opening that establishes the relationship between your character, Henry, and his wife Julia. Without spoiling anything, its an incredibly effective sequence…
WWE 2K15…Sting Is Here
In the mid-90’s the most popular wrestler in the now defunct WCW uttered the words, “The only thing for sure about Sting is nothing’s for sure.” Well WCW was purchased by Vince McMahon’s WWE in 2001; and while other WCW talent made the jump, Sting was the biggest holdout. For years WWE fans had to…
E3: Nintendo Strikes Back
It’s been a while since a Nintendo E3 showing had me excited, but this was one of those that did. From the beginning Nintendo gave us mostly what we had been asking for: “Show us this is worth having.” Much to my delight, I think they did that today. Starting with Smash Bros, Nintendo showed…
EA UFC Demo Impressions
Tuesday, EA Sports released the demo for EA Sports UFC. This is the newest entry in the UFC fighting game franchise, and the first from EA after THQ folded.

First off, this is the best looking game released on the Wii U thus far.…
Mario Kart 8: Will Turning Off Items Change the Experience?
As I’m speeding down the road, I notice a turn coming up. Instead of braking and taking the corner easy, I decide to powerslide into the curve, and with a flick of the analog stick, boost out of the turn. As I’m all alone on the final straightaway, the nearest racer’s icon just spun, signaling…
Why Xbox One’s (Potentially) Cheaper Digital Prices Work For Me
About a month ago, Microsoft revealed it would be testing cheaper prices for digital versions of their games. I love this idea. It gives gamers the option to continue to choose physical copies for those that prefer it. Personally, I’ve started to buy more of my games digitally because even though I trade games in from time…
Dead Nation: The Joys of Broadcast+
Dead Nation has slowly become to me what Geometry Wars 2 on the Xbox 360 was…the game that I play over and over again without getting bored. I understand if most don’t get my obsession with a good twin stick shooter, but there’s a challenge in it that keeps me coming back for more. I…
