PAX East 2017: Postmortem
After three days of gaming insanity in the city of Boston, I’m finally home. This was my first PAX, and definitely not my last. My feat hurt, my back aches, I’m tired all over, and it was absolutely worth it.
The Building Backlog
As it currently stands, I have a collection of about 20 or so odd games that I have yet to play or finish. Some aren’t even opened yet. For younger gamers, this tends to be a non-issue. Either they have the time to get to the games they have, or they don’t have enough games […]
Nintendo Switch – First Impressions
The release of a new Nintendo console has always been a very special time for me. I got my first NES for Christmas in 1986, and it truly changed my life. Nintendo has had its ups and downs, and its most recent down was the release of the Wii U. Although I am firmly in […]
A New Middle-earth Game!
Get ready to return to the realm of Middle-earth in order to KILL EVERYTHING. Ho-ly-crap, does this look good.
PAX-ward Bound
In eight days, I’ll be boarding a plane to Boston in order to attend my first ever videogame con/expo – PAX East 2017! To say I’m excited is a serious understatement.

Do you like videogames? I like videogames. We should hang out.
After almost a year of combing through files and stripping out malicious code, I have finally migrated all of my videogame posts from my other site, The Ramen Stand. Now, I can finally use the URL I bought over a year ago: punchbunny.com! Welcome to the site!
More of the Same – Rise of the Tomb Raider
Many moons ago, when Rise of the Tomb Raider was first announced as an XBox exclusive for Microsoft’s then-new console, I proclaimed my outrage at the inefficiencies of a “paid exclusivity” model. I promised that not only would I never get an XBox, I would never get Rise of the Tomb Raider on that particular platform, instead […]
Exiting the Commonwealth – General Thoughts on Fallout 4
After a month and a half, I have officially accomplished something I rarely do, and something I have never done with a Bethesda game: I finished Fallout 4 in its entirety, including receiving the platinum trophy. That’ll make my second platinum I’ve ever gotten (right behind one of my favorite games of all time, Shadow […]
Currently Playing “Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate”
Its been a couple of weeks, so Ubisoft released a new “Assassin’s Creed“, presumably from one of their 892 side studios, like Ubisoft New York or Ubisoft Delaware or something; and, of course, I had to purchase it, even after the unholy hell that was Unity.
Until Dawn – Halloween Horror Twitch Stream part 2
Here we go! Chapters 3-8 of my Twitch livestream of Until Dawn. Nobody is dead yet, so I consider that a major bonus. Let’s see if I can get all these kids to survive the horrors of whatever. I’ll try to finish up my playthrough today/later tonight!
