Posted on September 11, 2013 by baudattitude

I think I’ve identified the demographic that Valve’s new Family Sharing feature is aimed at, and it’s basically, well, gamers who spread themselves thin across multiple consoles and who may have some PC games in Desura and some others in … Continue reading →

Arts & Crafts

Posted on September 4, 2013 by baudattitude

My wife has been doing a bunch of cross-stitch lately, which is a pretty neat way to convert thread and patience into pretty objects.  Of course, we’re not your “precious moments” type of people, so she’s been challenging me to … Continue reading →

Executive Decisions

Posted on September 3, 2013 by baudattitude

One advantage of having six and a half years of back posts here, mostly talking about my habit of playing through games about a decade after release, is that I can tell you that it’s been 5 years and 4 … Continue reading →

Posted on August 27, 2013 by baudattitude

As may have been apparent, I’ve been quite enjoying having a dedicated portable system around on those occasions where I’m out and about but have some time to kill. I’m not by any means denying that there are some excellent … Continue reading →

Dragon’s Crown

Posted on August 24, 2013 by baudattitude

I don’t play many 2D brawlers.  I’d like to blame this on a generational thing – the genre more or less started with Double Dragon, and that came out right around the same time I stopped going to arcades.  So, … Continue reading →

Bioshock Infinite: It’s Awfully Pretty

Posted on August 11, 2013 by baudattitude

I originally wrote a massive wall of text here about Bioshock: Infinite, and you can still read that if you want (It’s under the “More” tag), but I read it over and realized that I could sum it up much … Continue reading →

Even for Japan, this is a weird one.

Posted on July 25, 2013 by baudattitude

For some reason, I keep picking up Cave shooters.  I think it’s because I really liked Espgaluda II and I keep trying to find ones that I’ll like as much. The problem, I think, is that they really ARE for … Continue reading →

An unexpected benefit to Playstation Plus.

Posted on July 22, 2013 by baudattitude

I’ve had a certain fondness, ever since the days of the original Playstation, for the “futuristic racing” genre.  Specifically, the F-Zero and Wipeout series, though I admit to a brief flirtation with Extreme-G.  The fondness is not returned.  I was … Continue reading →

Fishy Math

Posted on July 21, 2013 by baudattitude

So, I created an account with Big Fish Games in order to buy a game that my wife recommended to me. As an aside, it appears that all traces of shame have finally been scrubbed from me if I’m a … Continue reading →
