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
Defense Grid 2 from Hidden Path Entertainment
I believe that I spoke too soon when I reviewed Cannon Brawl, as I referred to it as a "towers of defense" game. In all honesty, Cannon Brawl is more of a "towers of offense" game, as you have to destroy the enemy base. Now, Defense Grid 2, that's a towers of defense game. Defense Grid 2, or DG2, is a game that takes place in some intergalactic war. Apparently, Earth … [Read more...] about Defense Grid 2 from Hidden Path Entertainment
Nixie is a drone that you can wear on your wrist for selfies
Intel recently had a contest for wearables, and one of the winners is the Nixie. Just to let you know, Nixies are shapeshifting water spirits from Germanic mythology, and I thought I would find that definition on a Google search. Instead, I found most results yielded a flying wrist bracelet drone that will shoot selfies. Yeah, this is pretty futuristic technology. The … [Read more...] about Nixie is a drone that you can wear on your wrist for selfies
Neverending Nightmares is probably the scariest game you will ever play
I first saw Neverending Nightmares at PAXPrime, and I watched the trailer that you can see above. In case you are wondering, you're right, and you should be creeped out by it. Here's something that you might not be wondering, you should be creeped out by it. This is a good thing, and I will explain later. Now, some of you know that I originally created this blog for … [Read more...] about Neverending Nightmares is probably the scariest game you will ever play
Dark Horse and Comic Books in general
Okay, brace yourself, it is about to get really geeky. After all, I am going to report on comic books here, and for some reason, sequential art seems to be as geeky as they come, at least from a stereotypical point-of-view. As it is, I'm sure that it will come to no surprise that I read comics. This is read, pronounced "red", like past tense. The reason why I stopped … [Read more...] about Dark Horse and Comic Books in general
Speculative Fiction Saturday: Avatar, The Last Airbender
I'm going to conclude my favorite animated shows for this month with a show that could easily be one of my favorite shows of all time: Avatar, The Last Airbender. Let me put it this way: if all songs were like "500 miles", I would not mind. If all video games were like The Legend of Zelda, I also would not mind. If all shows were like Avatar: The Last Airbender, the world … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Avatar, The Last Airbender
I may have been too pre-mature on my report of Bendgate
Okay, I'm going to make a disclaimer. Generally, I do my postings a day early so they can post early the next day. Unless there is some sort of "big story" breaking, like the recent unveiling of the iPhone 6. I guess I got ahead of myself with my report on the iPhone 6 bending. As it turns out, this is a problem that has only affected 9 phones, according to my Source. … [Read more...] about I may have been too pre-mature on my report of Bendgate
Say, does the iPhone 6 have a bending problem?
A few years ago, when the iPhone 4 came out, there was that design flaw that would power the phone down when you put your finger on a certain point on its side. It would appear that there is a new Applegate. I'm not certain if you have already heard about this, but the iPhone 6 is having a problem staying straight. Have you ever kept your phone in your front pocket? … [Read more...] about Say, does the iPhone 6 have a bending problem?

My Review of the Thinium Charge
At first I thought the Thinium Charge was one of those mobile batteries thatI have reviewed so often, but it is a charging cord, really. The Charge is an ultra-slim, portable wall charger that is as thick as a few credit cards. Yes, it will fit in your back pocket, and you can pry out the prongs and push out the micro USB or Lighting connector. You can then plug it in, … [Read more...] about My Review of the Thinium Charge
Gauntlet returns to the console
I can't believe that I forgot to report on Gauntlet! I mean, this is a remake of a video game that changed video games as we know it. If you are not familiar with Gauntlet, it was originally a stand-up video game that up to four players could play, as different characters: barbarian, elven archer, wizard, or Valkyrie. It was Dungeons and Dragons in video form, where the … [Read more...] about Gauntlet returns to the console
