Mass Effect: Massive Interface Fail Part I
Mass Effect received a lot of praise when it came out. It still receives a lot of it. It is considered as one of the prime examples of next-gen western RPGs. It is a status I don’t think it quite deserved. Yes, Mass Effect offers a visually and thematically rich, cinematic experience. But that thin [...]
TRAUMA Preview
Hello again. I’ve been on a hiatus for some time to focus on finishing Illucinated for the upcoming IGF submission deadline. And I am glad to announce that I have been successful. Illucinated is now called TRAUMA. A tiny Website is available here. But most importantly, here is a (slightly blurry due to SD-Quality capture) [...]
Episodic Gaming Fallacy
Here is a quick thought I had recently. Fable II was just released in episodes on XBLA. Also, Episodic Gaming has been discussed in one of the recent Brainy Gamer podcasts. The idea is: instead of releasing one big, long, expensive game, you chop it up into small pieces and release it cheaper and individually. [...]

Daniel Cook’s “Fishing Girl”
I have been mean to Daniel Cook in the past (oh yeah, it goes way back doesn’t it). It was probably mostly undeserved, seeing how how he was one of the inspirations for this blog in the first place. It feels especially awkward when he releases something as cool as “Fishing Girl” (together with Eric Woroshow).

PS3 Slim – Further Impressions
As I have already written, I have a PS3 Slim. Now that I have been able to test it some more, here are further impressions:
Scribblenauts Videos
A post a day keeps the… something away. I don’t care, ok? It’s just a good idea in general.
We were recently at GameCom where I had the opportunity to check out Scribblenauts. And check out I did. I played it basically at least once every day I was there. It was an awesome booth and it [...]
PS3 Slim – First Impressions
A PS3 SLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIM!! OMG!! THANK YOU!!
So even though this is not a holiday season, I must inform you, dear readers, that I have in fact, bought ONE PS3 Slim. I have one in my living room. That’s it.
Jokes aside. I thought I write down some first impressions, just like I did with my XBox 360
Quick Thoughts on Magic: Duels of the Planeswalkers
Recently, I’ve spend some time on the new Magic: The Gathering port for X-Box Live Arcade. I have played Magic a couple of years ago for quite some time. I even organized a Magic tournament. I got out when I moved to Cologne due to lack of people to play with. By the way: the [...]
