Wii Mini…Why?
Todd is still on the fence about the Wii U, but one thing he knows he’s against is the Wii Mini, a really bizarre Canadian product that just makes no sense.
What I’m Thankful For This Year
Todd reflects on all the great gaming he’s thankful for this year, and all the ways he’s still being screwed over. You didn’t think his holiday would be all smiles, did you?
Nintendo’s Rebirth?
Nintendo had the most to win and the most to lose coming into E3. But with a show almost exclusively focused on the Wii U, was it enough to turn around their declining fortunes?
XCOM Offers Modern, Classic Gameplay
If anyone could have remade a classic like XCOM, it’s Firaxis. Their take on the series with XCOM: Enemy Unknown is nothing short of epic, making turn based strategy white hot again.
Star Wars: Revenge of the Mouse
News that Disney has bought LucasFilm will certainly have a huge impact on Star Wars movies and games moving forward. But is that really such a bad thing?
Finally, A Game Company Listens!
After years of waiting, the game industry finally delivers a good remake of a classic. They even took a risk with XCOM to remind gamers why they love turn-based strategy.
Sliding Into Home
Sony had some of the most aggressive plans of any console-maker at the E3 show earlier this year, and now some of that is coming to light. The Geeks grade their performance so far.
Doubling Down On Dragon Action
The Double Dragon series has had its share of remakes and sequels, but nothing like Double Dragon Neon, which pays homage to all things 80s, from Konami to Crystal Pepsi.
Home Sweet Hearthfire
Todd gets all domestic with the new Hearthfire DLC for Skyrim, designing and building his own home, adopting a couple kids, and experiencing married bliss (and chaos).
Reliving The Classics in HD!
Todd takes advantage of the slower season to play some fun classic games, and new remakes of titles like Double Dragon, which put the cool into old school again.
