Renting games is something I’ve started to experiment with recently. I know it’s not a new idea, but it’s something I avoided for a long time because I have a “collector-type” personality. That means I enjoy acquiring stuff even if I’m only going to be using it a few times, …
Sucker Punch
Punch-Out is the game that finally convinced me to buy a Wii. And I did so fully expecting that I probably won’t be buying too many more Wii games. (That already makes me a typical Wii owner, as the system has a a pretty dismal attach rate.) But seeing as …
Weighed His Options
Greetings Padlings! I’ve recently emerged from an incredibly busy period at work into something of a summer lull, which means time for comics! Will it be a summer of inspiration? Maybe. I’ll see how things go. A potential pitfall is the many games that demand my attention these days, but …
Misery’s Company: 2008 Edition

Your Enemy, My Enemy
I’m a little late writing this post and I blame World of Warcraft for my tardiness. I recently started playing after avoiding it for almost three years, precisely because I knew I’d likely get hooked. So of course it happened, just a few days into my 10-day free trial. *sigh* …
