Monday Archives: “RichDoors” by NewVillager

Song of the Day “RichDoors” by NewVillager Listening to “RichDoors”  by NewVillager will stick with you for a while.  Once done listening, the song will find it’s place in your brain.  You will then find yourself humming the tune, but you will not know where you heard it or how it got into your head.  [...]

Shadow Complex (XBox 360)

Sometimes an arcade game comes along at the modest price of 1200 Microsoft points ($15.00), and completely blows you away. A friend of mine from work (Brian) approached me on friday with tales of the incredible nature of this game. Essentially, it is a side scroller much like unto the olden days of Metroid with [...]

Patapon (PSP)

PON PON PATA PON! PATA PATA PATA PON! One of the most ingenious game types I have ever played. This is not your average rhythm game. A race known as the Patapons has fallen from their former glory, and they need you (the great patapon), to bring them victory on the field of battle. You [...]

Locoroco (PSP)

My recent trip to Montana was exceedingly fruitful on the gaming end. I took my broken PSP with me to the far north in pursuit of family fun and relaxation. I found it in Locoroco. I had never played the whimsical adventure known as Locoroco before this trip. Sure, the PS3 version was played in [...]

Wednesday Purchase: “Me-Time (With The Pulmonary Palimpsest)”

Song of The Day “Me-Time” by Busdriver The first thing you notice about Busdriver is his machine-gun lyrics and mach three razor speed.  You almost need to slow down the track by putting it on your Talk-Boy.  But that is what makes the song so endearing, the amazing verbal skills of Busdriver make your head [...]

Fables: Homelands (Vol 6)

So basically I am an idiot and wrote the review for this issue under the “Mean Seasons” issue a couple of weeks ago. All that talk about boy blue whooping trash happens in this trade and not in the other. So I’m gonna write my review for the mean seasons right here. Not Smirched In [...]

New Tunes Tuesday: “I Would Be Sad” by The Avett Brothers

Song of the Day I am about to leave for Red Butte Gardens to see The Avett Brothers and I am excited to hear this song.  Sorry that this is going to be short, but work was busy and school is coming.  So please enjoy.  I will tell you all about the concert tomorrow.

Y: The Last Man (Volume 6)

I’m back from Montana and ready to continue my foray in the twisted realm of the last man. The title of this trade was enough to make my gut churn with nervousness. I fear that this series may be getting a little too freeky deeky for me. SmYrch? The story feels rather shallow in this [...]

Metal Gear Online (PS3)

I promised myself that I wasn’t going to write about MGO until at least Wednesday. I broke my promise. Anyone who knows me will confess that I am NOT a multiplayer gamer. Halo is the only video game that I have played over the net and I suck at it (and I’ve only played maybe [...]

Wednesday Purchase: “Rudie Fails” by the White Rabbits

Song of the Day I finally purchased It’s Frightening by the White Rabbits.  When I listened to the album online, I was not impressed.  Having time with it though has changed my perception of it.  I already covered the bands single “Percussion Gun” a couple of months ago.  But “Rudie Fails” seems more thoughtful than [...]
