I don't do a whole lot of pitching, I'm more of a review/opinion guy and doing anything traditional is kind of a weakness of mine, but when I do make a pitch I always make sure I know what I would like to make before it gets very far into the disc...

I'm not a very good judge of my own work, but my two personal favorites are my review of Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood and my more recent review of Borderlands.

I only have one review that I'm REALLY proud of, but I reckon I'm more proud of a hands-off preview I did on Halo 3 ODST. I liked the way I structured it and when I look back on it it just looks... good, I guess. I've only just started out and I'm...

That was an awesome review. Didn't expect one of such a stupid-looking game to be that interesting. I'm like Chris. Every single time I look at anything I've written that isn't a recent editorial I feel like it isn't representative of my current ...

My feature pieces on the history of Ensemble and the variation in the Sims community were especially fun to write since they involved research, interviews and compressing a wealth of quotations into a single coherent narrative. I'm not especially...

Wow, that site got more than ugly. That's...that needs a web designer reeeeaaaally badly. On topic, I can't really say. Every time I look back at my reviews I feel like it's not a good sampling of my current work. I tend to have pride in my edito...

More Stuff What I Wrote

Been a little while, but I figure I might as well post up a handful of articles and whatnot that I've put up on DT since last time, in case anyone's looking for something to read/critique.

"I Suck At Games, and I'm Here To Help" - A lengthy manifesto on what I believe to be the unique contributions that lousy gamers, and ONLY lousy gamers, can (and should) make to the community.… Continue

Thoughts on a classic video game: Donkey Kong Country 2

Yesterday, I took a stroll down memory lane and decided to play Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy Kong's Quest. I could remember playing this game as a youth and feeling excitement as well as frustration (due to the extreme difficulty). Now, being an adult, I found that not much has changed. I was still excited to see Diddy, the end of the level win animations, all the goofy Kong family characters and yes, the difficulty that made me want to tear my hair out. But alas, I rediscovered how fun this gam… Continue

Thank you, Alan Turing.

Hey guys please take a few minutes to read this:

Who is Alan Turing, and why should you care?

If the name sounds familiar but you’re not sure why, you may have heard it in the news recently. The British government issued a full, official apology to him on September 10th 2009 – over fifty five years after he died. What did they apologise for? Why so long after his death?

Alan Turing was born June 23rd 1912… Continue

Why They Hate Video Games

Hey guys now and again I'll being putting some of the best articles from Critical Gamer up on this blog. Why They Hate Video Games was writer by Luke Kemp who is co-owner and editor-in-chief at Critical Gamer.


It’s axiomatic that people often fear what they do not understand. ‘Homophobia’ means fear of homosexuals of course, rather than dislike or hate of them (though fear invariably breeds aggression). Similarly, ‘Xenophobia’ means fear of foreigners. In fact, the prefix ‘xeno’ or ‘xen’ is us… Continue
