Trying to play and narrate at the same time has proven problematic, especially for a game as intense as Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, so I switch to recording my vocal track after the fact. I think it makes what I have to say a bit more worthwhile, and you get to see me kick some butt!

Disney Infinity Toy Story Play Set Review
While I generally like Disney Infinity, I don’t have any particular attachment to the source material these Play Sets draw from. However, that all changed with the release of the Toy Story Play Set. I hold those fantastic films close to my heart and have been anxiously awaiting to experience the franchise within the game. In hindsight, I’m not really sure what I was expecting from a Toy Story Play Set, I can’t help but feel a bit disappointed with the final product.
Xbox 360 vs. PlayStation 3: Who Won?
With the new era of console gaming about to begin, I think now is a great time to take a tally on how this last generation went down. Who do you think won?

Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Combo Video #3
This is a short one, but I had to capture the last two on video when I figured them out. While randomly messing around in training mode, I made up a few raw tag combos, which is uncharted territory for me. Check them out!

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Single Player Review
There comes a time in seemingly every franchise’s life when things start to get stale. As Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 proves, not even the hottest video game franchise in the universe is an exception to this old adage. While it’s meant to be the epic conclusion to Infinity Ward’s branch of the franchise, it ends up feeling like just another one in the pile despite its best efforts.
Why I Love Rose In Street Fighter IV
When it comes to character choice in fighting games, I’m a strong believer in not choosing the best character, but going with the best character for you. It always works out best when you find that character with the right mix of tools that you genuinely enjoy playing as. Otherwise, you’ll never reach your full potential, even if the so-called experts will always suggest going top-tier. As I’ve said multiple times on this blog, dropping Akuma for Rose was the best decision I made while playing Street Fighter IV. Without her, I probably never would have reached over 3,000PP, 15,000BP, become the #1 ranked Rose player in Canada on Xbox Live and PlayStation Network, or done as well at tournaments as I have.
This post is not intended to state why Rose is the definitive best. Heck, I’d even agree with many of the experts that in comparison to the rest of the cast, there are a number of characters that are better overall. However, the synergy I have with Rose may be tighter than any ‘relationship’ I’ve ever had with a video game character. Here’s a few reasons on why that is.
Mega Man 10 Review
Mega Man 9 was hard. Admittedly, I didn’t put that much time into it, but the bit of time I spent with it made me feel more anger than enjoyment. I felt that way too much of that game came down to trial-and-error alongside surgical precision to the point where it wasn’t fun.
With that bad experience fresh in my mind, I immediately went into Mega Man 10 with the difficulty set to easy. 2 hours later, I was watching the end credits roll without having broken a sweat.
Jett Plays: 003 – Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition
In my third attempt at recording a Let’s Play, I take on the world in Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition. I try to talk about how Rose became the right character for me, though the stiff competition I faced made that difficult to say the least.
Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Combo Video #2
Though I don’t play fighting games with the same intensity or fervor that I used to, I’m still trying to make progress with my skills when I’m in between other titles. Of late, Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 has been my jam. Since the last combo video I made, I tightened up my execution a bit, learned some new techniques and came up with a few cool ideas to make my existing combos to do more damage. In particular, I’m finally starting to get a feel for Dr. Doom. In particular, I’m proud of myself for finally figuring out how to dash cancel after the second foot dive to do the iconic foot dive loops. Check it out!
Early Impressions of Ninja Blade
Best known for their work on Demon’s Souls and Dark Souls, From Software created Ninja Blade before that; a Ninja Gaiden inspired chopsocky game exclusive to the Xbox 360. If you don’t remember it, that’s cool, cause it came and went within the blink of an eye. For years, I patiently waited until it hit the bottom of the bargain bin before picking it up. After finding it brand new for $5, I decided to take the bait.
