Spec Ops: The Line Single Player Review

A massive sandstorm has decimated Dubai. At least one major troupe of American soldiers has tried to evacuate the locals with no luck. With that in mind, the U.S. military sends three Delta operators to check if there’s anyone left to save. What starts out like a pointless jaunt in the desert becomes far more messed up than anyone could have anticipated. Continue reading

Universal Fighting Game Guide: Day One Tactics

The recent release of Injustice: Gods Among Us has brought forth a new wave of players immediately flocking towards characters and tactics that some may define as ‘cheap’. As of writing, Deathstroke is a wildly popular character because his gun special moves seem to do a great job at keeping others at bay. Sinestro is also a popular choice, as players early on are struggling to get away from his boulder drop. This has sparked a lot of whining and complaining from others whose only defence is to cry foul.

Yes, I’ve lost to my fair share of Deathstroke and Sinestro players, but this edition of the Universal Fighting Game Guide is not here to chastise these supposed cheapskates. Instead, I want to talk about the phenomenon of day one tactics and why players should spend more time playing instead of whining.

Just Dance 4 Review

Have you grown tired of cutting a rug with Ubisoft yet? Based on how well the Just Dance series continues to sell, probably not. Just Dance 4 is the recent main-line entry to the series that’s mostly another one of those. However, for fans of the series, that’s not necessarily a bad thing.

Celebrating One Year With Splitkick.com

One year ago today, Splitkick posted my first piece of content that I wrote for them. Did you remember that it was a review for Bloodforge? Do you even remember what Bloodforge was? Probably not, and for good reason. It’s terrible.

Maybe that game didn’t leave a lasting impact on the world, but being a part of the Splitkick team has definitely made a positive impact on me. It’s an opportunity to write more and write for a new audience. Through the editing process, they’ve helped fine-tune my work into some of the best I’ve ever written. When I stepped up a few months ago to take on editing responsibilities, I got to return the favour. Most recently, I’ve been able to bring Jason and Mat into the Splitkick family as part of The Recurring Bosscast.

Thank you to everyone past and present at Splitkick for giving me the opportunity and always being supportive of my efforts. Looking forward to keeping this going!
