A little bit basic — Ratchet & Clank preview

When I played Insomniac’s reimagining/remake/whatever you’d like to call it of the original Ratchet & Clank, I couldn’t help but be taken back to the feeling of playing and watching the original PlayStation 2 trilogy. However, in bringing Ratchet down to its basics, I did

No room for compromises — Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End

Game of Thrones “Sons of Winter” – Signs of life

If there’s one thing to say about Game of Throne’s fourth episode “Sons of Winter,” it’s that it has shaken off much of what has held the episodic series back: Game of Thrones itself. Previous episodes of TellTale’s adaptation have been full of cameos from established

After some audio problems led to the trashing of our original show for this week, Kenneth and Ron got together for a brief episode of the GT Reboot podcast. In this quick episode, we talk about The Witcher and how it compares to Dragon Age: Inquisition, the rumors of Silent
