As far as years go, 2016 was a shitshow. A dumpster fire. Over the last 12 months I've lost my dad, the family dog, and almost lost my closest uncle to a car accident. With gaming as my primary form of escapism, I'm at least eternally grateful that this was one hell of a year for our favorite … Continue reading My 10 Favorite Games of 2016

E3 2016: EA Play Was Pretty Awful
EA's press conference at E3 2015 was really, really bad, but this year they decided to throw their own event -- EA Play -- instead, and somehow made it worse. It was a long-winded, overly verbose conference full of uninteresting developer diaries that are better suited for YouTube than a grand stage. Going in to … Continue reading E3 2016: EA Play Was Pretty Awful
