Final Fantasy: Unlimited Review: Does This Series Live Up To The Name?

FFU Feature

(Note: Thanks to the Final Fantasy: Unlimited Wikia for the pictures!) With Final Fantasy XIII-2 releasing soon, and the excitement I felt playing the demo and seeing the official released game footage, I fell into a renewed love for the Final Fantasy franchise that I haven’t felt since before Final Fantasy XIII released, when I … Read more

Author Spotlight – Brandon Sanderson

AS-BrandonSanderson

The focus of our Author Spotlight series was supposed to be to take a look at awesome authors that many people don’t know about. The thing is, that becomes an oddly confused goal in the realm of fantasy novels. Why? Because they’re incredibly long; your average fantasy novel is a 400 page beast that is … Read more

Where Are The Fighting Game Franchises I Love?

5 Franchises

With the Fighting Game genre having reached a new renaissance of evolved gameplay, and the successful revival of fan-favorite franchises in recent years (with the arrival of Street Fighter IV, Mortal Kombat, Marvel Vs Capcom 3) I’ve expected this trend to continue and give us more long-lived franchises or long-lost cult faves to sate our … Read more

5 Things I Want to Be Able to Do in Elder Scrolls VI

Dovahkiin! Murderous slayer of dragons! And for some reason totally unable to swing his sword and ride a horse at the same time!

There’s no question that Skyrim is a masterpiece. Yes, there definitely are glitches, but they’re there because Skyrim is insanely ambitious; there’s a humongous world you can traverse full of monsters, tons of characters, and a huge mapful of locations to explore to your heart’s content. Lots of people focus on the issues, but really, whining about them’s … Read more

What If… Dino Crisis Had Been the Bestseller?

WhatIf-DinoCrisis3Nemesis

As far as gamers go, I’m a bit of a weirdo. I can say with confidence that I’m not a hardcore gamer, but I do flatter myself with the completely made-up title of amateur video game historian. “What the hell’s that?” you ask? A gamer who’s more intrigued by the movements and eras of the … Read more

Please Fix This, THQ: 5 Things I Want Fixed in WWE ’13

WWE 12 640px-476d428459eaea31b82a6e9e03249559

As my review of WWE ’12 clearly shows, I wasn’t too impressed with the supposed improvements that were hyped on the months leading up to the release of the game. While it wasn’t horrible, my reaction was very mixed: and having played it for some time now, I see five major things that are holding … Read more

Author Spotlight – Dan Slott

MrDanSlott

Time was it really sucked to be a Spider-Man fan. With Spider-Man 3 leaving a serious wake of WTF and One More Day just… not helping, it became difficult to say that Spider-Man was your hero of choice in a lot of circles. It became even hard when The Dark Knight was released; even your roommate’s girlfriend, who … Read more

NNO-TheWayStation

Welcome to the very first of our brand new, 2012-fresh Nerd’s Night Out series, in which we highlight the premiere nerd hang-outs; places that are really awesome but that you very likely haven’t heard about (because many of us are so afraid of the sun).

5Things-SRIII

It’s no secret that I love Saints Row the Third. These are some of the things I’ve really come to enjoy about it. #5) Driving and Piloting… Well, Everything!
