Eureka “E = MC… ?” – Review
Oh, lovely, like the theoretical sciences, I get to break one of our rules here. Directed by Tim Mattheson, he was once the Vice President and arguably had a better character than anyone currently in politics. We get a very weird crossover…
Quest Giver (PC) Review
There’s an old quest in World of Warcraft that grants you the “privilege” of briefly experiencing what it’s like to be a quest giver. That is, to be a non-player character (“NPC”) who stays in the exact same spot for all eternity,…

David’s Backlog Busting: Ampu-Tea (PC)
My bio here on Phenixx Gaming says that I’m “a man who’s just trying to get through his game backlog before the heat death of the universe, and yet can’t seem to stop adding to said game backlog.” Well, I’ve decided I…
