Coder by day, gamer and film fan by night. Websites are one of many things I do. A big fan of classic/retro gaming especially of Atari systems. I can also cook. ;)
Today’s session started off with the Penny Arcade guys again, watching Mike do his magic on the big screen. With many of the attendees being veterans of last year’s event, there was no shortage of reminders to include shout outs in the new comic strip. I also had a […]
On day two of PAX Australia, the Penny Arcade Q&A involved Mike drawing up a new strip while the audience watches. Last year Jerry wrote the text at the beginning but this time he was prepared in advance so Mike could draw right away. I’m always extra curious about the […]

Now that Forza Horizon 2 has hit and delivered what is likely the racing game of the year, I was curious about diving back into the original and seeing how much had changed. For me it was also an opportunity to play more of a game which I […]
After launching one of the most successful gaming Kickstarter campaigns of the last couple of years, we finally get to see Brian Fargo’s dream of seeing a sequel to Wasteland, the game that later inspired the Fallout series. The final product shows that there is still life left in the old […]
