After the previous episode, I fixed the party arrangement, and spent some time in the Jakyou house to have a look at which combinations of monsters yielded the best results for the Neutral alignment run. I’ll explain the logic in today’s episode! Watch live streaming video from oprainfall at livestream.com Off cam, I’ll be combining […]

All too often I see gamers react to a 7 out of 10 for being a “bad” score. As if for some reason the only possible scores a game can get are 7 through 10. This is absolutely wrong and it needs to stop. I’m here to enlighten you on how exactly each popular review scale […]

The various staples of the genre have varying degrees of quality in my opinion, so I can’t exactly call it my preferred genre… but games […]

We gamers develop certain views of companies based on their actions. So it is no surprise that “core” gamers do not see the Wii in the greatest of light. It has lots of causal games on it and very few adult titles, sure. But just because the Wii’s library is the way that it […]
