You Should Probably Play This: Mark of the Ninja

You Should Probably Play This is my positive review column. In it, I'll review a game that I think needs more attention. It may be an obscure oldie, something that was released recently with little fanfare, or something that was badly received on release but has since been made better. This time: You can't spell awesome without ninja (it's hiding).
Woo.  Woo.  Woo.  Prepare yourself for gushing.  Bring an umbrella.

Pretty Scenery In Miasmata

I'll be reviewing this gem of a survival game once I finish it, but until then I thought I'd rip off Jefequeso's idea and share some pictures I took, because I have SO MANY.  Although it has fairly rough edges, it's a really pretty game, especially the lighting and sky effects.  And the whole thing was built from the ground up, engine and all, by two guys.  Anyway, onwards!

Album Review: Shadow Circus: On A Dark And Stormy Nightf

Okay look.  I know I just reviewed Shadow Circus' last album a little while ago, but is it my fault they just released a new one?  And that it's really awesome?  No.  No it is not.  So shush and let the Red-eyed Man hypnotize you...

Lineup:
David Bobick - Vocals
John Fontana - Guitar, some keyboards
Matt Masek - Cello, Bass
David Silver - Keyboards
Jason Brower - Drums

You Should Probably (?) Play This: Stay Dead

You Should Probably Play This is my positive review column. In it, I'll review a game that I think needs more attention. It may be an obscure oldie, something that was released recently with little fanfare, or something that was badly received on release but has since been made better. This time: I made my own cardboard cut-outs of sound effects to hold up when punches connect.

So you know how hardcore gamers hate long cutscenes?  And you know how hardcore gamers hate QTEs?  Well now there's a game to annoy the insufferable hardcore gamer in your life.  That game is Stay Dead, a somewhat hilarious rhythm fighting game by BRUCEfilm.
