Gaming: My Favorite Legend of Zelda Boss Fights!

August 1st, 2019 Look, I'm on a bit of a boss fight kick these days, okay? Boss battles tend to be one of the most memorable aspects of video games, and often times it's rock-solid boss fights that turn good games into great games. I've discussed games in the past (even as recently as last week with my World of Warcraft boss piece) that are known for...

Gaming: My Favorite World of Warcraft Raid Bosses!

July 26th, 2019 When it comes to the lifetime of a World of Warcraft expansion, the things I look forward to most are new patches that include raid content. Why? Because raiding is easily the most enjoyable, and most challenging, thing that an MMO like WoW has to offer. Typically with any given expansion, you're looking at 3-4 "Raid Tiers" that include...

Gaming: My Favorite Summer Gaming Memories!

June 28th, 2019 Summer isn't usually the time of year you think of when you're reminiscing about your favorite gaming experiences, but when you grow up in Alaska, sometimes Mother Nature hits you with a deluge in the middle of July that keeps you from doing much of anything outside. So what is a kid to do? Well, when I wasn't running around outside...

Video Vault Special: Trailer for World of Warcraft's 8.2 Expansion, Rise of Azshara!

June 21st, 2019 Battle for Azeroth, World of Warcraft's seventh expansion, has been a rollercoaster ride, to say the least! BFA has been a polarizing expansion to say the list; including (but not limited to) the controversial burning of Teldrassil, the overall vilification of Sylvanas Windrunner, and the somewhat unsuccessful Azerite Armor system. That...

Movies: Why Big Trouble in Little China is a Classic Action Flick!

May 9th, 2019 You might be wondering why I think Big Trouble in Little China is on a short list of my favorite movies of all time. My long answer is because it's visually impressive, funny, action-packed, and overall just a damn good time. The short answer? It's all in the reflexes. Kidding aside, I really do have John Carpenter's Big Trouble in...

May 2nd, 2019 When it comes to video games, sometimes the NEMESIS is the best part of the whole dang thing. You can have an engrossing story, great characters that you really care about, along with innovative gameplay and mechanics - but if you have a crappy villain or antagonist, then the whole thing can just fall flat in the end. There are more...
