Game of the Year :: Ni no Kuni

My Game of the Year is the title that brought me the most joy and kept my attention the longest. This early January 2013 title stayed in my thoughts throughout the day, and tugged at my heart strings throughout my time with it. It’s a game that took me to another world while still keeping me grounded with another “real world” to relate to. It gave me the chance to “collect ‘em all” and has kept me a little bit younger.

Knack :: The little bits

The launch game Knack is a bit of a hit and miss. It’s a fantastic concept and brings some classic platforming style to the PS4. Knack himself is adorable, made up of bits and pieces of “ancient relics”, but just like his body, the game has some transparent faults. With all the new console, next gen and launch game madness Knack falls short of the hype.

PS4 :: First Impressions

This may be the first of a few posts on the new PlayStation 4 console. There is way too much to go over in a single journal entry, and ideally, this is something that we are going to be discussing for years to come. I’m fully aware that the PS4 is “just a game system”, however it is also, IMO, THE next generation console to own. It’s the dawn of a new era of gaming, how the future will unravel remains to be seen. Read on to hear my first impressions.

PS4 Releases on My Radar

With less than five days left until the PS4 arrives at my doorstep, it was time to make some decisions on games. The games I’m most interested in for the PS4 are not being released until 2014. Although disappointing, 2014 will be here before you know it. I imagine that many gamers will still be shopping searching for a next-gen system for quite awhile.

New on my Netflix List

Often frustrated searching through the Netflix Instant library, I offer you some recent picks from my own Netflix List. I've gone quite dark with this batch. You'll notice many of the selections lean towards the grimmer story lines. There is a nice variety of the supernatural, science fiction, comedy and even some torture. Let me know if you like one, I'd say the best of the bunch is probably The Brass Teapot.

Also, I wanted to share this link that really helps with finding something to watch on Netflix. The site offers "Most Popular" and "Recently Queued" lists, giving you an idea of what other people are watching. Check out instantwatcher.com for all your Instant needs.
