Jaysus Begorrah, there are a lot of Mass Effect 2 reviews out there. I suppose sooner or later I’ll post one of my own, once I’m able to play the damn thing, but going with my revamped “one at a time” policy, I need to finish Dragon Age and BioShock 2 first. Which hopefully means… Continue reading Missing the Mako

One At A Time
I hate Dragon Age: Origins right now. There’s apparently a memory leak in the PC version of the game that causes load times to last longer and longer the more you play it.

As a caveat, I played the first game on the X-Box… Continue reading Game Review: Mass Effect
Jotting in the Margins: Do-Over
I picked up Dragon Age: Origins because I’m a sucker for both fantasy role-playing games and BioWare’s writing. Sure, they’ll dump extensive write-ups into your journal (or Codex in this case) at the slightest provocation and some of the conversations can be a little long-winded, but the writing is so good and the character stories… Continue reading Jotting in the Margins: Do-Over
