Living In Oblivion Updated

June 22nd, 2008 · 7 Comments · Gaming

I finally got off my butt and updated my Living In Oblivion blog, with Day 25.
And with this update, I’ve actually caught up the blog with the gameplay, which is exciting for me because I’ll get to play Oblivion again and find out what happens to Nondrick next.  Frankly, I’m ready:  I think I’m gonna […]

Spore!

June 15th, 2008 · 13 Comments · Gaming

So, there’s a torrent of Spore’s Creature Creator out in the torrentverse, which I won’t link to because, I dunno, it’s probably illegal or something? I’m not sure. I downloaded it anyway because I was dying to try it, plus, there’s no way in hell I’m not going to buy it when it […]

Speaking of Oblivion…

June 5th, 2008 · 14 Comments · Gaming, Humor

… I forgot to mention this yesterday. The fast-speakin’ trash-talkin’ Brit-Down-Under Ben “Croshaw” Yahtzee reviewed Oblivion in his latest installment of Zero Punctuation.

Tom Francis Ruins TF2

June 2nd, 2008 · 15 Comments · Gaming

I direct you now to Pentadact, where the Internet’s own Tom Francis has a super-sized post outlining his ideas for unlockable weapon alternatives for every single weapon in TF2 (excluding medic gear, of course, but including teleporters, dispensers, sentries, and sappers).
Some great, fun ideas.  I especially like the Demoman whiskey-buff, rolling sticky bombs, mini dispensers, […]

So, what did we learn from RPS’s exciting visit to Valve yesterday? Some highlights:
Steamcloud was announced, which is an upcoming feature that will allow Steam to keep a copy of your game saves and personal configurations online. Nice. So, if you’re visiting your folks out of town, you’ll be able to download […]
