Dear Journal, Today I got so angry that I grew extra arms so I could punch people six times as fast. Asura’s Wrath is a game that falls into that sort of middle range in terms of success and popularity. People know of it, they’ve heard it exist, but try to find a gamer friend who has played it let […]

Dear Journal, Today I became the ultimate hunter (that never went toe to toe with Arnold Schwarzenegger). Much like my last go-around at taking on my backlog, I decided to once again start my quest with a Cabela’s game. This time it is Big Game Hunter 2012, the sort of cousin to the Dangerous Hunts series. Only this time I […]

Dear Journal, Today I found out that even Jedi Knights can be totally un-cool. Star Wars: The Clone Wars – Republic Heroes is a video game with three titles and only one camera angle.
