And we’re back! I haven’t played nearly enough of the XBLA hit, Mark of the Ninja, but I have played more than enough to formulate a style of dealing with those pesky armed intruders that would surely…leave it’s mark! See what I did there? Eh? Anyway, I should be getting back to my Mon/Friday … Continue reading

Visiting Hours
Happy Monday! I imagine Shaun would haunt me in real life if he couldn’t “pass on”. Anyway, this was more or less my plan from the start and I hope you guys will enjoy Ghost Shaun as much as I’m going to enjoy writing him. I recently decided it was just easier for both Brian … Continue reading
Ermagherd! Slerndermern!
Happy Friday (about 4 hours early)! I want you all to welcome Jennifer to Only a Geek! It’s taken a really long time–and a lot of subtle hints–but she finally made it. Jenn and I have been taking turns playing Slender, a free game by Parsec Productions (a name I’m a huge fan of, by … Continue reading
Experiments
Hey, guys, No Only a Geek today. Instead, I thought I’d try something different. The other day, Jennifer and I took our youngest for a walk on a local hiking path. When we set out, we hadn’t intended to walk as far as we did and, thus, I wore flip-flops; which turned out to be … Continue reading
Not So Secret…
I’ve spent some time recently with FunCom’s newest MMO, The Secret World and, while I am in love with the “real world” setting, the storytelling, and the classless combat system, there are some…issues with the game’s overall world. My biggest concern is that the rest of the world’s inhabitants outside of the three factions are … Continue reading
Introducing Wrobel’s Wednesday Review
Hey, guys! I don’t have a whole lot to say today, but I wanted to take a second to introduce a new feature for the Wednesday blog: Wrobel’s Wednesday Review! Every Weds (or, as often as he has them ready) my I will include a video game review written by my friend, Brian. I will … Continue reading
A New Focus
I’m not sure if I should start these off with some kind of standard greeting or just go right into whatever it is I’m going to say. That said, I guess I’ll go with a traditional greeting for now and we’ll play it by ear in the future. So… Heya, guys! I want to talk … Continue reading
Stalk U
Okay, first off, let me say that I’m not entirely in the comic Ray’s corner here. Though I think that Nintendo may be relying a bit too much on “fancy-schmancy” controllers and interactivity gimmicks for their consoles over the last several “generations,” I don’t feel that the Wii U is going to do as poorly … Continue reading
Pawn Gone
Okay, the fist thing you should know is that I had little to no expectations for Capcom’s new third-person RPG,Dragon’s Dogma. That said, I am absolutely in love with it. The story they’re telling is fairly cut-and-paste in its set-up of “ancient evil awakens and threatens the world and gives the hero a reason for … Continue reading
The Old Republic: Old Friends page 5
Here’s the next page in the Adventures of Tymn and Rayloth! I’m still using this as a means to experiment with styles for Fyreball, so you’ll notice that the style from page to page here may shift a little. For instance, I was testing the slightly random brush strokes of the coloring style I’ve … Continue reading
