Now, some people are doubtless going to argue with me on this one. I hear you. Milon's Secret Castle . . . a windfall? I never beat this game. I never even came close. It was way too hard. I didn't know anyone that even had the game, and those of my friends brave enough... Continue Reading →
I read a well-researched, fascinating article the other day titled "Tales of an aging gamer: Why don’t I pick up a controller as often as I used to?", by Theo Karasavvas. I highly suggest you read it before you read this article, but if that's tl;dr for you (too long; didn't read), I'll try to... Continue Reading →

No, this grind is not required for you to enjoy the game, it's perfectly playable if grinding for loot isn't your... Continue Reading →
Another Extra Life is in the books, and our third event went even better than last year's in just about every way I can think of. We had very few technical hiccups, for example, and what issues cropped up were promptly and skillfully handled by our tech crew, Ed and Kay, who generously donate their... Continue Reading →
