Hooray! I got to review another game on Steam, and this one is as fun as Fearless Fantasy. The Lovely Planet is an interesting First-Person Shooter (FPS) game that is very simple in its graphics, but it isn't the graphics that makes this game, it's the action. I'm not really certain what is the backstory behind Lovely Planet, but playing the game involves roaming this … [Read more...] about Lovely Planet from tinyBuild Games

The Plastic Card: One credit/debit card to rule them all
I can't believe that my Sources didn't use The Lord of the Rings metaphor, but it seems pretty obvious. The Plastic is a device that I think solves an obvious problem: wallets are made too thick by credit and debit cards, and it just makes sense to put them in one place. Not only is the Plastic good for credit and debit cards, but it can also store funds for certificates … [Read more...] about The Plastic Card: One credit/debit card to rule them all
Fearless Fantasy by tinyBuild Games
Yes, this is another Steam game that I am reviewing, and I am glad that I took the time for it. Fearless Fantasy is a turn-based RPG game that is really interesting. The game starts with some kind of monochromatic animation that has an anime style. Leon the most dangerous bounty hunter teams up with a princess who is betrothed to an evil king. Together, they wander … [Read more...] about Fearless Fantasy by tinyBuild Games
HEX iPhone 6 Cases: The Icon Wallet, the Solo Wallet, and the Focus!
I've reviewed HEX products in the past, and I feel fortunate to receive some of their newest cases for the iPhone 6. I had a chance to review three of their cases, and I will start with the Icon Wallet. I might as well start by saying that I have reviewed products like the Icon Wallet before. Then again, I'm kind of getting tired of giving products introductions like … [Read more...] about HEX iPhone 6 Cases: The Icon Wallet, the Solo Wallet, and the Focus!
RoomAlive brings the gaming out of the box, into a the box of your room
We once reported on a technology known as Illumiroom, and it really is quite something if you want to click on the link if you want to see what it is all about. Or you could just click on the link above to the YouTube and see how it works. For some reason, this technology got a new name with RoomAlive. It uses a bunch of projectors and Kinect sensors that can essentially … [Read more...] about RoomAlive brings the gaming out of the box, into a the box of your room

For those that just have to game, you have options. You could use a laptop, a portable gaming system, or you could just put your Xbox or Playstation on a Vanguard and take it with you wherever you want to go. The Vanguard is essentially a portable gaming system with a 19 inch LED display and stereo speakers. If you don't want the loud sound, you can always use the 3.5mm … [Read more...] about The Vanguard by GAEMS
Falling Skies, the Game, from Little Orbit
I have to admit that I have only have seen one episode of Falling Skies. I think it is a TNT show about some post-apocalyptic world that has been overrun by aliens. I've heard that Steven Spielberg produces it, and I can't help but compare it to The Walking Dead. After all, it is about the remaining humans after a catastrophe. I have to admit that I wasn't overly … [Read more...] about Falling Skies, the Game, from Little Orbit
Speculative Fiction Saturday, Marvel Month, Part 1: The Amazing Spider-Man 2
I'm going to start by saying that even though the original Spider-man trilogy with Tobey Maguire had its dumb moments, but I felt the story was a solid translation from the source material, with the exception of the third film. I believe that Columbia pictures had to put out a Spider-man film by a certain year, or they would lose the rights to it. Apparently, the studio … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday, Marvel Month, Part 1: The Amazing Spider-Man 2
Why would you make a Tetris movie?
Please note how I worded the headline. Now, why would I say "Why would you make a Tetris movie" if someone were not planning on making a Tetris movie? The answer is: because Threshold Entertainment is actually planning an adaptation. This is the same studio that bought us two Mortal Kombat movies, and sadly, the only good thing that gave us was that awesome song. … [Read more...] about Why would you make a Tetris movie?
Doubledutch and Tiny Build Games present Speedrunners
And now, for another game that I have been playing on Steam, and this one is Speedrunners, a fast-paced game with a very interesting premise. Some games involves superheroes, and some games are platformers, and some games are really, really fast. Speedrunners is all three of those. Speedrunners is about a race between four superheroes. Why are these superheroes racing? … [Read more...] about Doubledutch and Tiny Build Games present Speedrunners
Help fund “Growing Up Alaska”
As many of you know, I am always reporting on crowdfunded projects, but this would be the first time that I am reporting on a crowdfunded book. This isn't the first or last time that I have reported on a book, because I have written about my own books here. And yes, mine is coming soon. This potential book "Growing Up Alaska" is pretty interesting to me because it deals … [Read more...] about Help fund “Growing Up Alaska”
Jabra Move Wireless headphones
It has been a while since I reviewed a product from Jabra, makers of a lot of cool wireless products like the Rox Wireless. The Jabra Move Wireless is an over-the-ear headphones with wireless capacity, and it is, of course, very cool. Yeah, you know that I'm always ready to give Jabra products a good review, just like I like most Pixar films before 2010. As I have stated … [Read more...] about Jabra Move Wireless headphones
Plantronics RIG SURROUND PC Gaming Headset
I might as well start by telling you that I am reviewing a product that I have reviewed before, at least in its first iteration. The Plantronics RIG SURROUND is a step up from the Plantronics RIG, and it shows. Actually, I should say that it blows. Okay, that doesn't sound right, unless your implying that it blows your eardrums off. The first had 40mm drivers, but this … [Read more...] about Plantronics RIG SURROUND PC Gaming Headset
This War of Mine by 11-bit Studios
A few days ago, I mentioned that everyone should probably play Neverending Nightmares because it does show realistic mental anguish in the midst of a creepy setting. This is the same for This War of Mine by 11-bit Studios. Why? Because even though it is a war game, it does not glorify war at all. I'm not really certain what the war is in This War of Mine, but this isn't … [Read more...] about This War of Mine by 11-bit Studios
