    As I mentioned in my favorite media of 2015 post, when it comes to graphic novels, I tend to play a lot of catch up at the end of the year, as the year-end lists start to come out. On the French side, a new Western series called Undertaker piqued my interest, and so I…

    So yeah, this happened to me on Tuesday (or take your pick). In the past I’ve started the year with a post that looks optimistically at what the coming year may bring – last year I was already starting to set my sights on moving back to North America, which I of course did.  This…

    I’m embarrassed to say I never got around to playing the original Vita version, but was quite excited at the prospect of the PS4 version – looking all pretty like it does – and finally picked it up over the holidays during a PSN sale. In my post about LittleBigPlanet 3 I was saying how…

    I love this series so damn much, and as I’ve said before, I think it’s one of the best art directed bunch of games ever (although I’ve just started playing Tearaway Unfolded, and that’s blowing me away as well). I finally got around to playing LittleBigPlanet 3 over the holidays – grabbing it during one…

    I have yet to play The Stanley Parable – something I will soon rectify as I just picked it up (along with The Beginner’s Guide) in the Steam winter sale – but I’ve been following the launch of this new Crows Crows Crows studio, and finally got around to playing that free short game they’ve…

    I’m so happy that a second season of Double Fine’s Devs Play series is currently happening, and the four episodes so far have all been great. I’d say the two episodes with Patrice Désilets (playing Prince of Persia: Sands of Time and Assassin’s Creed II) are especially interesting, because you get to hear about a…

    I’ve had this series in my Netflix list for a while, and finally got around to watching the 6-episode first season this week. I’d heard it was a funny show, and the presence of Mark Duplass was also a draw. This is indeed a super funny show – doesn’t matter if you care about fantasy…

  • Disney Infinity 3.0

    Up until now I’ve had no interest in this – the last thing I want is to be collecting any more figures, and I’ve never had a huge desire to play games based on Disney properties, and I’ve had my fill of Marvel with the LEGO games. But I’ve been bitten hard by the Star…

    Marco Polo is one of those Netflix series I’ve been meaning to watch for what feels like forever, and simply haven’t gotten around to it. I saw that there was a new half-hour special that popped up – it’s in part to tease the upcoming second season – and so I decided to watch it.…

  • Asterix: The Land of the Gods

    As far as I know, this is the first Asterix animated film done in CG, and they did a really great job with it. The animation is definitely on par with what you expect to see from an American CG movie these days, and I thought it was a great adaptation of the original book.…
