  • Tiny Troopers Joint Ops

    Last night I started playing through this month’s free games from PlayStation Plus – Stories: The Path of Destinies I’ve already played through and hugely enjoyed, while Invisible Inc. I played a bit of on my Mac, and I do plan on giving the console version a try. First up I played Tiny Troopers Joint…

  • Star Wars: The Clone Wars (Season 3)

    I’ve been slowly watching the third season of The Clone Wars animated series on Netflix, and gotta say, it keeps getting better and better. Makes me realize that the setting of the prequels isn’t really the problem, but rather that they’re just bad movies with bad storytelling. 

  • The Magnificent Seven

    I thought this was pretty good. I liked the cast – Chris Pratt is as likeable as ever – and it felt like a solid western, with good action. Beautiful widescreen vistas too to take in.

  • Saturday Night Live (Season 42)

    As I start thinking about what I liked and watched throughout the year for my year-end list, I’m reminded that SNL is one of the rare shows that I watch on a weekly basis (at this point, it was just this and Westworld), and how I continue to look forward to watching it, despite the…

  • Conan

    I’ve been following Conan O’Brien’s various shows on and off since he started his talk show career, and after not having watched anything in a good year or two, I recently started watching Conan again, and am happy to see that it’s just as fun as ever. 

  • Star Wars Rebels (Season 2)

    I know the show is currently in the midst of season 3, but I just recently watched the last few episodes of season 2, and enjoyed them quite a lot. I continue to think that adult Ahsoka is the coolest Star Wars character, and so it’s a joy to have her play an important role…

  • Pacific Heat

    This popped up on Netflix last week, an Archer-like from Australia. I watched the first 2 episodes, and gotta say it’s pretty damn funny – at first I felt a bit uneasy about the mocking Asian accents, but you eventually get that they’re making fun of that stereotype. I still haven’t gotten around to watching…

  • Sing Street

    I watched this last night on Netflix, and it’s absolutely one of my fave movies of the year. Set in 80s Dublin, it’s sorta a basic boy-loves-girl-creates-a-band-to-impress-her kinda thing, but so well done, and the soundtrack throughout – both the known songs and the ones that were written for the movie’s band to perform –…

  • Let It Die

    This surprised me. I didn’t know much about it ahead of its release this past weekend, but was definitely excited to give it a try, since I’ve enjoyed a lot of Suda51 games in the past. At first I was really digging the general style of the game and world setup, but then all of…

  • Animal Crossing: New Leaf (Welcome Amiibo Update)

    So yes, that big update they released for Animal Crossing: New Leaf a month ago got me to play the game again (something I hadn’t done in at least a year, probably much more). Not only that, but it got me to buy a bunch of Animal Crossing amiibo as well (thankfully that I found…
