Snow days and RPGs

So it’s snowing like crazy here in New Jersey. Again! And just like always, whenever there’s a snow day, be it from school or from work, I always want to make some hot chocolate or coffee and curl up with a good RPG for the duration. I’m not sure what it is about this weather, but I always want to play an RPG. I guess it goes back to when I was a kid, and…

Let's Go Retro! - Music Machine for Atari 2600

Hi all! So I'm pretty excited about this, I've been wanting to do a video feature for some time now. I know this video seems amateurish, but hey, this is my first one, I'm totally an amateur at this right now!

My figure display case!

Not too long ago I went to Ikea with the hope of finding a couple pieces of furniture, one for my ever-growing collection of toys and figures, and another for my collection of games.

Late Halloween VGM: The 7th Guest

Well, shoot. Halloween came and went and I spent most of it working on school work! So please allow me to make one final Halloween-themed post as I discuss one final bit of spooky video game music, the music from The 7th Guest. I was crazy about The 7th Guest back when it came out. The atmosphere, the story, the brain-busting puzzles had my friends and I hooked like mad back in the day. While…
