Baasvik is here for something new! A critical analysis of a video game! He talks about the issues with open-world games and how they relate to Horizon: Zero Dawn. I hope you enjoy the video. Please let me know if you have any comments, complaints or questions.
Baasvik is back with another review. This time of The Sexy Brutale, a murder mystery puzzle game from Tequila Works.

Baasvik is here to give you the rundown on why Doom’s campaign is the best first person shooter campaign he’s played in years.
Pete comes at you spitting the hottest yang about Hitman and episodic AAA games. Plus, optimization issues, Kilgore, and much more.
2016 is off and running and of course I’m playing a game about ponies, the devil, and messaging systems. I really feel like this is going to be the year of the in-game instant messenger. It’s about time. This may be the only one, however, which has the IM chats be between you and demons.…
I sit here on December 30th as I enjoy one of the last glasses of gin I can have in 2015 pondering the games that impacted me the most this year and as I look back, I can’t help but think that the year was not one of negativity but of fantastic experiences. I wouldn’t…
I don’t often revisit games from my younger years. I often avoid them for a reason. It is not unlikely that in all of the years that have gone by I have become influenced by a wider-eyed version of me who found the years of 2007-2010 the most interesting in all of gaming. One of…
2014 was all right by me. It was a year of positivity. It was one of my favorite years of gaming because I think it was the year I became most deeply imbedded in gaming. I played whatever I could get my hands on. It was really exhausting. I had a good year of podcasting…
Christmas time is right around the corner, but that doesn’t mean you can stop being a gamer. Because you can’t. And you never will. But do not worry my friend, all will be well. Now, through the power of Robby Duguay’s crazy electronic compositional skills, you can listen to all your favorite Christmas tunes, as though…
I really hate most numbers-based game rating systems. They’re pretty terrible. So for the past year our reviews have been devoid of a “numbered rating scale”. But I began to feel like changing it… so I have. We will now be operating on a star-based rating scale. It’s simple: 1-5 stars for any game we…
Starting last year I began doing a game-of-the-year list. I continued compiling games throughout 2014 for this year’s list. Something struck me. There was a prominent lack of indie games. Last year 6 out of my 10 games in the top 10 were indie offerings with ‘Guacamelee’, ‘The Stanley Parable’, ‘Runner 2’, ‘Proteus’, ‘Antichamber’, and ‘Gnomoria’.…
Hey reader! Remember that old game you used to play where you and one other person would flip two tiles and try to match them up with one another? There were tons of variations. You could get ones with Sesame Street characters or farm animals or Pokemon. I always liked those games because my family was in a…
Happy New Year everyone! I thought I’d start out the year by telling you my favorite games I played last year. Most of them were released last year. I’d first like to start by listing some games I omitted from the list due to not playing or not playing enough of to fairly judge. Games…
The new DOTA 2 update is out. THANKS VALVE! They went ahead and added new features, as well as new characters for a more intuitive and pleasant experience. SHOVE IT VALVE! Look, I get it, you love us. But come on, stop it. I’m a worse human being because of you people. I’m less friendly,…
Last week’s podcast was the first I had ever heard of Twine, a free to use tool that allows users to create interactive stories. This peaked my interest, not just because “free” is my favorite number, but because it seems very accessible, even to those with no programming experience. This means anybody with an awesome…
In the article I wrote about ‘The Light‘, I briefly mentioned that you play as a dashcam. The humble dashcam has become synonymous with Russia because nearly every vehicle (so it seems) in the motherland is equipped with one of these. All those cameras are primed and ready to record all of that hot Russian…
I bought ‘Rogue Legacy’ in what common-folk would call a “digital sale” and Microsoft would consider “uncharted territory.” I played about 2 hours and was thoroughly enjoying myself before I had a sudden realization: this was all eerily familiar. I was dying constantly, but didn’t care. Every time I died it was my fault. Classes…
Listen up guys and gals, today is the day that ‘GTA V’ drops into and onto consoles in your homes, apartments, and chiq California pads. If you’re like me, you enjoy preparing for these types of releases, as when a title this massive is released, the effects in the gaming community resound loudly. So here…
Yesterday I desperately asked the internet to hand me a game to play because I don’t have my meat hooks deeply embedded in the community like I had in the past. Indie developers obliged and I began sorting through the games to search for something I found interesting. The one that caught my eye, Skullbox…
I do not know what the origin of the numbered review was, but it now exists in incredible prevalence. I am sure this topic has been written on before, but I believe in an age of lessening attention spans an article on the topic holds weight and significance. Therefore, I believe, as a man who…
‘Hotline Miami’ is some hot shit right now. Everybody is geeking out about its style, prose, and confidence. I am quite sure it is as, if not more, fantastic than everybody has claimed it to be. Yet, I have little to no desire to play it. I have watched trailers, read reviews, and seen screens,…
