Details are scarce, but it has been confirmed that Mega Man will team up with Proto Man and another unrevealed character to defeat a series of evil robot masters, including the electrifying Sheep Man.

Off the record
For some reason, this isn’t a review of Modern Warfare 2’s single-player campaign. Maybe it’s because I don’t want to take away from the game’s multiplayer, about which I expressed such a positive opinion. Maybe it’s because I don’t really care to discuss the co-operative spec. ops mode. It could just be because I simply [...]

[Review] Modern Warfare 2 (multiplayer)
Call of Duty 4 is the mom who tells her kids they can run around outside for only ten more minutes, while Modern Warfare 2 is the dad who tells his kids they can run around outside for as long as they want.
You thought you had the coolest mom ever when she was in charge, [...]

Giving up the ghost
Magic: The Gathering haunts me.
I’ve quit thrice before, but it’s never left me. Aside from the physical box of cards I’d hate to get rid of without some kind of monetary compensation, something reminds me of the addicting mechanics every few months, forcing me to check out what’s new with the game.
I’ll never play paper [...]

[DEMO] My Life as Pokemon Goo
Demoman is a feature in which I make (incredibly harsh) assumptions about upcoming games based upon their (horrible) demos, while making observations about their purpose and importance.
Today’s victims: My Life as a Darklord, World of Goo, and Pokemon Rumble.

Chas in Real Life
Hello. My name is Chas, and I’m a video game addict.
It’s been over a month since my last post, but I’ve been playing more games than usual lately: Scribblenauts, Okami, Final Fantasy VI, Modern Warfare, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, and I’m about to play through Lost Winds again. I also have a new addiction thanks [...]

[Review] Bit.Trip Core
My review of Bit.Trip Core is live on Game Positive. The game joins its predecessor and several other games that make me glad Nintendo hasn’t canceled its download services outright. Core consists of only three levels, and it doesn’t take long to complete overall. Of course, it doesn’t cost much either, and the number of [...]

The Mad Dictators
When most students return to Nicholls State University this week, they’ll find every vehicle in the school’s various parking lots showing off the university’s new interpretation of their controversial mascot, Colonel Tillou. The controversy is new again, however, as instead of seeing a supporter of the confederacy, some students and alumni feel the new mascot [...]

Bit.Trippin’: A Tale of Discovery & Exploration
I’m sitting in my living room, listening to the same chip tune play over and over on a loop as I type this post. Bit.Trip Core’s title screen is displayed on my television, and it’s indicating that I have yet to beat the game’s second level.
Discovery was easy enough, but I’m having trouble beating the [...]
