We live in complicated times. The modern blockbuster title demands twelve buttons and three directional pads, some buttons doing different things when pressed in combination. There are multiple situations your character gets stuck in. You’re no longer just running around

The Friday Post: Subtitle
I’m too lazy for a subtitle. This week has been awfully lazy, on account of hell’s weather having moved to New England. On the plus side, it’s Friday! Which means it’s almost Saturday! Which means this horrible nightmare is slightly

Redemption is a Misnomer
That’s right, I’m denouncing the critic’s (and many-a-player’s) darling. There is nothing Redemptive about Red Dead Redemption. Here’s why. As you probably know, RDR gives players control over John Marston, a man who is living during a time of utter

Is the Western the Most Under-Realized Genre in Video Gaming, Ever?
What, only like 3 developers ever thought a gun-slingin’ old-style western was a good idea? Really? After playing some Red Dead Redemption and practically cutting my fingers off during the morbidly dangerous game of Five-Finger Fillet, I realized I had
