    This is another game that I’ve had for a while, but don’t think I included it here. It’s the iOS version of Runner 2, a game that I really loved playing on the PS3. It of course translates perfectly on the iPad, and so if you’ve never experienced it, this is a great way to…

    I got this game when it originally came out, which was quite a while ago, but noticed that I didn’t include it here and so wanted to rectify that. It’s an awesome game – in fact it’s one of my favorite games of the year – and if you don’t already have it you should…

    I’ve had this game for a long time on Mac, but even though I did quite enjoy it when I first got it, as is the usual path for me when it comes to games on PC, I just didn’t keep up with it. I was so happy to see it come out on iOS…

    As much as I can appreciate the graphical prowess of the Infinity Blade games, they don’t really grab me – although I do remember quite enjoying the first one for a while when it first came out. I grabbed Infinity Blade III the other day because it was on sale for a buck, and was…

    I bought the iOS version of this very popular board game a few months ago, but for some reason just never got around to playing it. One thing I’ve discovered over the years is that although I am happy to see so many physical board games get translated to iOS, I also don’t end up…

    As included on my list of favorite games of the year, The Banner Saga is indeed a fantastic game, but I’m especially happy to be playing it now on iPad. As much as I loved it before, I make no secret of the fact that I don’t really like playing games on my laptop, and…

    I haven’t watched a full episode of The Colbert Report in years, but I did want to watch the final episode, and it was definitely a nice – and appropriately wacky – sendoff. Even though I didn’t watch it week-by-week, I would still get a taste here and there through online clips, and I was…

    With all the buzz this UK series has been getting of late – a new special just aired – I decided to finally check it out, and I’m sure glad I did. I just watched the very first episode (there are 2 seasons of 3 episodes each, plus the new special) and it was definitely…

    I’ve only watched the first episode of this 3-part mini-series that aired last week on Syfy, and it’s surprisingly really interesting (so far). The setup is really neat – the US sends out a spaceship in the 60s, on a 100-year voyage to a new world, and a crime happens 50 years in. Without spoiling…

    To be honest, I wasn’t expecting to really get into this series, considering I don’t have that much interest in the franchise – I only played a few hours of the first game, and it just didn’t grab me. But wow, I thoroughly enjoyed this first episode, to the point where not only can I…
