So as August draws to a close, I realize that this blog has sort of fallen to the wayside. I know that I’ve still been writing posts, but the trip to Montreal and Austin combined and the general lack of motivation to pursue my hobbies has meant that I’m a little unhappy with the way this … More Blog Update: New Stuff for September
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, the last chapter in Metal Gear Solid series (that we know of) is coming out on September 1st, 2015. At the time of writing this review, that’s only 4 days away. Now in a first for the series, a playable prologue was released to the public the year to wet … More Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes Mini Review
Sooner than I wanted, the last day of RTX rolled around. This essentially meant that I was going to try and see almost everything that I hadn’t had the chance to see yet on the convention floor. While there were panels I wanted to go see, I mostly spent my time seeing the rest of … More Austin and RTX Part 4: Last Days in Austin
So while I get around to writing the last post of my Austin journey and time at RTX, I just wanted to mention that I was invited by I a friend that I made in Austin to be on the Shifty Keys Podcast, a community podcast for Rooster Teeth. The episode I was on came … More First Time on The Shifty Keys Podcast
While there was a lot of fun stuff going on the floor and in the city of Austin, my 2nd day at RTX was slightly more low key than the day before. This is partially because I didn’t go to either of the large morning panels; RVB and Achievement Hunter, and most of my friends … More Austin and RTX Part 3: Saturday Morning Cartoons
I read two articles today on Polygon that reaffirmed a question that’s been on my mind for most of the year. The first, was an article on how Dungeons & Dragons has found new life online through Youtube and Twitch streams and the success of 5th edition. The other was a feature piece on how … More Is Dungeons & Dragons Trendy?
After a couple awesome days exploring Austin, it was time for RTX! While I had an idea of what I wanted see, I really had no idea what I was going to expect. Sure there were panels that I was going to try really hard to get into, but I knew that whatever I was … More Austin and RTX Part 2: Lines, Lines, Lines… (But the Good Kind)
For the past few days, I’ve been asked by co-workers, friends, and family how my trip to Austin was. As I alluded to in my last post, written when I was on the train back to downtown Toronto, it was incredible. But with getting back to work and fighting what I believe to be “Con … More Austin and RTX Part 1: Burning Alive
So, you know how I said I’d hoped to write a post daily for my adventures in Austin? Well it turns out that I was having so much fun that I didn’t even bother to do that. Sorry if you were expecting that. I’ll be writing a post; perhaps posts, about my trip and RTX, … More Osheaga and RTX Part 2: Vacation (Almost) Over
The final day of Osheaga 2015. As the second day drew to a close, I thought that the final day was going to be relatively quiet with only two bands I wanted to see. Then I looked at the lineup and saw that there were five on the list. You never realize that when you’re at a … More Osheaga Day 3: Full of Surprises
