7 Ways To Initiate Sex In Saints Row IV
If you didn’t already assume, there’s definitely some NSFW language. Saint’s Row IV has 7 different voice actors, and 7 romance options, so I decided to give everyone their due and make 7 different characters and try them all out.

Shadow Warrior Is Exactly How Old Shooters Should Be Rebooted
As a kid, I didn’t have a PC or gamer friend to grant me access to 3D Realms games in the 90s. I’m not sure if having one would have made me appreciate this remake of Shadow Warrior more, or if it would have made me complain that it’s not the same as it used…

Nintendo, Your Restrictions On Demos Are Just Silly
I downloaded the demo for The Wonderful 101, and was surprised to find this message pop up telling me that I would only be allowed to run the demo 20 times. Now, of course I don’t plan on playing a demo more than once or twice, as I’m sure most people don’t. Which is why…

In Brothers, The Story Is Told Without Saying A Word
If you watched my other video on Brothers: A Tale Of Two Sons, you know that it’s a game about two sons going on a quest to save their sick father. The characters speak only gibberish, yet the game still does a fantastic job of giving these two boys fully realized personalities just through the…

Your Only Enemy In Teacher Story Is Stupidity
Sure, I like strategy games, and I like them to be turn-based. But this is the first I’ve played that depicts how horrible children are. Why did that kid throw a knife?

Watch Us Play Divinity: Dragon Commander Where You…Command A Dragon.
I’ll admit, I went into Divinity: Dragon Commander expecting a much stronger focus on the commanding of dragons. Turns out, it’s actually the incredibly complicated kind of game I dreamed about as a kid after playing Age of Empires. I guess I’ve changed since then, because all I wanted to do was fly around and…

Watch Us Play Brothers, A Game Where You Try To Save Your Father
So far, Brothers: A Tale Of Two Sons isn’t a particularly challenging game, yet it demands more of my attention than most games by asking me to control two characters at the same time. The presentation is excellent, and I love watching all the different animations when the two brothers interact with people in the…

Watch Us Play…Shelter. Now You Can Live The Dream Of Being A Badger
I don’t know what badgers eat. It’s a shortcoming that becomes painfully obvious in this playthrough of Might & Delight’s new game Shelter, which just got greenlit on Steam for personal and macintosh computers. If you enjoyed Journey, but wished the protagonist was something more relatable — like a badger — then Shelter might be…

Dozens Of Awful Indie Games Later, I Found An Amazing One On Xbox Live
I decided to go searching for something worthwhile on Xbox Live’s Indie Store today. I had to play dozens of bad indie games before finding it, but One Finger Death Punch made it all worthwhile. It would be better without the annoying announcer, but it’s nice to find a game with a focus on tight…
