    I’ve mentioned a few times that I do quite enjoy playing MOBAs (like Guardians of Middle-earth and Awesomenauts) and that I don’t really play DOTA 2 or League of Legends because of how unfriendly I hear it can be. I have been really excited to try out Blizzard’s take on the genre, Heroes of the…

    I haven’t really played a space shooter in ages, but I was curious to grab Strike Suit Zero: Director’s Cut when it came out last week on PS4. I haven’t played that much since I’ve been mostly obsessing over Trials Fusion (and Hearthstone too), but I have played the first 3 missions, and I’ve had…

    I wrote recently that I was enjoying the free-to-play iOS game Trials Frontier (and I still am), but the game I’ve been really excited to play is Trials Fusion, and I gotta say that so far I’m pretty satisfied. Sure, it does get progressively harder – meaning I’ve had to go back and grind some…

    So yes, my other favorite show is Mad Men, so right now I’m dealing with the issue of which one to watch first (Game of Thrones usually wins). It’s been a slow start to this final season, but I’m enjoying it so far, and especially enjoyed this latest episode, with Don bonding with Sally. I…

    Don’t worry, I won’t mention any spoilers, but 3 episodes in, this is certainly a great start to a season so far. I won’t say anything else other than this continues to be my favorite show (along with another series that just started its final season).

    I usually add a post here when a new season of a show I’m watching starts – this is after all meant to be my media consumption diary – and even though I don’t do it for Real Time, it is a show I continue to love watching, season in, season out. I gave up…

    I just discovered this show yesterday, and have already gone through most of the first season – you can watch all episodes online here. Don’t know how I missed this, but man, this series sure is funny. It was co-created by Dan Harmon, and so this is where I can continue to get some my…

    Yet another free-to-play game I’m trying out, and again, how long I end up playing this will depend on how stingy it becomes with its resources – as I’ve said before, I’m willing to unlock stuff, but not pay for resources. So far I’m having a really fun time with this, and I’ve played quite…

  • Wind-up Knight 2

    I’m not usually into action games that use on-screen buttons, but I still had fun playing the first Wind-up Knight, and the sequel that just came out pretty much feels the same, although it looks even better – it’s a really nice-looking game, quite slick. It’s a free-to-download game, but it acts as shareware, as…

    Watched the first episode of Mike Judge’s new series – this parody of the tech world – and it’s pretty spot on. Not only is it it funny – not in the ha-ha sense, but more in how it really highlights the ridiculousness of that world – it’s incredibly realistic as well, including what they…
