Last weekend I attended PAX South. This is the first year that PAX has made its way to Texas. I have been to PAX Prime once about three years ago. For its first year, the convention seemed pretty well organized. Everything was pretty easy to find and all pretty close to each other. Panels and…
Video Games
Binding of Isaac: Dog Biscuit
Isaac and his mother lived alone in a small house on the hill. That much is certain. But on a fateful day, a voice from above changed all of that. A voice of divinity demanded the end of a peaceful existence that Isaac had grown accustomed. An end to both the peaceful… and the existence….
World of Warcraft: Tasty Cupcakes
These past few months several of my friends have been playing World of Warcraft again. A few nights out of the week I’ll see a handful of them sitting in a mumble (voice talk program) channel raiding. I’ll admit that my husband and I have been slightly tempted to join them but we keep reminding…
Guild Wars 2: Onion Rings
It’s that time of year when all the cities of Tyria dress up in celebration of Wintersday. Toymaker Tixx has returned to Divinity’s Reach bringing merriment to all the people. Holiday activities both in-game and in the real world can make one extra joyful. What better way to celebrate the season than with some fried…
Kingdom Hearts 2: Sea Salt Popsicles
I remember sitting in high school and being excited for the school day to end so I could continue my adventures in Kingdom Hearts. When the second game came out, I had just started college. I remember playing through it and joking with a friend how if I have a son, I will have to…
Tales of Hearts R: Hot Chocolate
A sudden spike of despir sickness is affecting the world of Organica. Full cities are becoming consumed with one emotion. A city completely enveloped in sorrow stops being productive because they don’t believe in themselves. Another city ravaged with distrust causes dysfunction because people can’t work together. The populations’ spirias, cores that control individual’s emotions,…
The World Ends With You: Cinnamon Sugar Donuts
The World Ends With You is still one of my husband’s favorite handheld games, so I figured I’d make another treat from the game’s available food. About a year ago I completely cut out cereal from my diet. This lead me to experiment with different breakfast options in the morning. I will admit a lot…
The Sims 4: The Baconing
I keep playing the Sims 4 and can’t get enough of it. I really need to focus on one family and get them living in a big house. Every time I get a family decently far I’ll start thinking of a new group to try out and see what hilarities will ensue. I did attempt…
Harvest Moon: Roast Vegetable Lasagna
It is all about farming when it comes to Harvest Moon. With all the fresh produce your character is growing, it is no surprise they pick up cooking as a hobby. You have to keep yourself filled with delicious food if you are going to be working on your farm daily. A nice hearty meal…
Guild Wars 2: Stuffed Peppers
Last week the second half of the living story kicked off and I am excited to see the story move forward. I promise no spoilers for those who haven’t played it. That wouldn’t be nice of me! Guild Wars 2 has become a game that I load up when the living world drops and then…
