It occurs to me that I haven’t been posting lately, so I guess I’ll go ahead and update you all on some things.
Games I’ve been playing
Sadly, I haven’t really done much board/card/role-playing gaming lately since the big TPK. I did play a game of Three-Dragon Ante with my friend Dean; it was quite good. [...]

So, Paizo Publishing has decided to put out a product that will, I suppose, compete with 4th Edition. In a bold and, I think, savvy move, they have released an alpha version of The Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, so that people can read it, play it, and provide them with feedback that they will use [...]

When I first got my DS, my introductory game was The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. It was fantastic, in every sense of the word; one of the best games I’ve ever played. Hungry for more Zelda goodness, but knowing that that was the only title for the DS, I purchased The Legend [...]

I’ve been on the fence about Crysis for a while. Actually, that’s not entirely accurate. I knew there was a fence, I was aware of it. I knew that you could, theoretically, be on it. But I didn’t pay much attention to it. I just assumed that it wouldn’t run [...]

For those who have been reading this blog with any regularity, it should be no secret that I’m a fan of the HeroCard series of games that TableStar Games publishes. I enjoy the basic card battle system mechanics, and I’ve liked each of the five HeroCard games that have come out so far. [...]

Monte Cook’s World of Darkness: I’m currently about halfway through this book, and I have mixed feelings [...]

Yesterday, I played a three-player game of HeroCard Orc Wars. If you’ve read my review, you’ll note that I assess it strictly as a two-player game; this is because I didn’t own the expansion packs at the time of the review, and I still don’t. When I played with my friends Tad and [...]

It’s been a little while since my last post. I’d like to blame it on our impending move and, in truth, that might have something to do with my motivation issues, but truthfully I think that lack of stuff to post is the prime culprit. Things have been a little slow, gaming wise. [...]

HeroCard Orc Wars is the latest in TableStar Games’ flagship series, and it’s a good one. The game is a departure from other HeroCard games in a number of different ways, though some of them are not in the scope of this initial review. I should note before I begin that currently [...]

Star Wars Roleplaying Game Saga Edition has gotten me more excited than many other RPG products that have come out in the past, and that excitement reached a fever pitch while I was reading it. For those who don’t want to read this whole review, let it be known: this review is primarily positive. [...]
