Things have been quiet on the blog last week. I was enjoying a few days off and actually found a new and exciting pastime: ComputerCraft. ComputerCraft is a modification for the highly popular...
Last week I posted about three upcoming games I’m excited about. Today I want to add a couple more to that list. Number one on my list is Shadowrun 5th Edition. Yes, you...
After being sick last week I finally feel fine enough to write another blog post. Today I want to write about what games I’m currently excited about. Yeah, I know, I am easily...

Last week I’ve been playing the new Defiance MMO from Trion Worlds. It’s set into the same setting as the TV show of the same name. While it’s not really a post-apocalyptic setting,...
