    Alright furries, strap your large animal suits on. Dust: an Elysian Tail (Get it?) is out on Steam, and I’ve been spending the last week getting my hands on the sword wielding furball known as Dust.

  • Walter White: Not The Fine Man You Take Him For

    The last half of season 5 of Breaking Bad is approaching, a high-octane finale which promises to be what show-runner Vince Gilligan had envisioned from the start.

  • The Last of Us – Game Review

    The Last of Us is the brain-child of Naughty Dog studios. It’s hard to believe that this is the same company that began with the Crash Bandicoot franchise (a game I still love to play).

  • Pokémon X and Y: Have They Revealed Too Much?

    Pokémon is quite the legendary series. The franchise dates back all the way to when I was but a wee lad blasting ships away in Space Invaders on the Game Boy Color.
