We are here to mourn...





My computer is dead. 

Bricked. 

K-Oed.

Whatever you want to call it, it's just not working anymore. I'm probably going to lose all my files, but until I hear back from Best Buy, I just won't know. 

Hopefully I can get my computer back in about a week, but things are not looking good (I'm writing on my friends laptop...it's a Mac)

I'll be sure to post once I get my computer back. I have a hockey post ready, but I'll add it once I get my laptop back.


See you all soon.

ASG! Article: Global Domination


It's a bird! It's a plane! It's an review! It's an article!

Well...not quite. It's a review from my school's student paper of Empire: Total War. Give it a read here.

All in all, Empire is an amazing game. The theaters of war are huge, the battles are epic... if you're a strategy gamer, this is your Holy Grail.

Still, a few bugs have popped up since I reviewed the game a week ago. Nothing major, just some strange lag towards the end-game. Also, gamers on Nvidia drivers have been reporting problems, although I've been fine. Supposedly they'll be fixed in the next patch. They're also going to up the AI (which is already stellar) and balance a bit of the gameplay.

Still, no matter, the game is amazing. The best I've played this year for sure. If the bugs worry you, wait until the patch goes live.

Then buy this game.
