Posted on March 22, 2015 by baudattitude

I have not had a particularly good history with the Elder Scrolls games.  The first one I tried, Arena, was so long ago that I actually had to install it from 1.2 MB 5.25″ floppies, and my experience with the … Continue reading →

Posted on February 3, 2015 by baudattitude

So, finished playing through Half Life 2 tonight, my fourth time through the game which says an awful lot for how much I like it. It was my first time through since Valve patched in Achievements, which I found really … Continue reading →

I still hate Ravenholm.

Posted on January 21, 2015 by baudattitude

I recently discovered that, according to the incredibly depressing steamleft.com, it would take me 184 days of continuous playing, without breaks for sleep or eating, to finish the unplayed games in my Steam library.  That ignores all the console games … Continue reading →

Shepard don’t fear the Reapers

Posted on July 29, 2014 by baudattitude

Finished ME2 and launched right into ME3 and immediately got a sense for why there was so much griping about it when it came out.  Still, it’s pretty amazing and I’ll put something up here about my thoughts on 2 … Continue reading →

I Geth I Was Mistaken

Posted on July 21, 2014 by baudattitude

I spent another four hours with Mass Effect 2 tonight, and I’m happy to report that the Geth DO show up. This entry in the series feels a lot more like a shooter than the first one did.  That’s far … Continue reading →

Mass Effect 2: I Am Disappoint.

Posted on July 20, 2014 by baudattitude

Let me start of by saying very clearly: I am not disappointed with Mass Effect 2, the video game. Rather, I started it intending just to see how it tied into the first game and then played for six hours … Continue reading →

Don’t Drink, Don’t Smoke, What Do You Do?

Posted on July 20, 2014 by baudattitude

The problem with games with morals systems is that I only ever really see the nice guy path. I mean, sure, it might be fun to see a bit more of the, let’s say, “morally ambiguous” path, but when the … Continue reading →
