I was going to write about my impressions of Earthbound after playing through it, but then I remembered my journey and experiences while trying to get this game. So this will be split up into 2 sections, the first will be about how I was introduced to the game and how I finally got my hands on it; the second part will focus on my impressions of the game after I beat it. I’ll try not to reveal too much for people who haven’t played it.  So without further ado, let’s begin my story of my experience with the video game world of Earthbound. Read more »

Posted on July 25th, 2012 by Ultimo

Hey guys! Ultimo here once again to tell you about the exciting new videos being posted on the GAretro youtube! The Sonic ’06 series is on hold for now.

New parts will be uploaded every Monday, Wednesday and Friday – so be sure to check back frequently.

Review: Nexus 7 Tablet

Posted on July 23rd, 2012 by Koop

I’m going to go ahead and get it off my chest now so we can talk about more important things: I hate Apple. I hate not being able to control my device. I hate closed environments and I hate inflated prices for inferior products.

Whew! I feel better, so let’s talk about Android tablets. They are far from perfect, the whole segregated environment sucks for everyone- not only for the developers- but also the consumers who find one application available on one android device but find it’s not available on another. To remedy this,  the manufactures have been using relatively similar hardware, lining performance up and making sure recent operating systems are more cross supported and backwards compatible. When it comes to mobile tablets, nothing beats an Android tablet.
