As of this post, I have a level 8 Hunter, a level 12 Titan, and a level 20 Warlock. According to the Destiny companion app, I have spent 20 hours and 6 minutes in game. In a world that is finding itself increasingly busy with each passing day, Destiny makes the dangerous assumption that gamers will fight… Continue reading Destiny: A Different Take
Author: Kenney Newville
Kenney Newville was born in California but raised in Missouri. This left him very confused: he spoke much quicker than everyone else around him, but he was comfortable with the lower Midwest prices. Kenney spent his first year of college living in a Benedictine monastery, something that every young man in the 21st century did. After realizing the monastery wasn’t hard-core enough for him, he decided to move back to his home town of St. Joseph, MO to finish school. During his quest for a history diploma, he became indebted to GameStop and worked there in indentured servitude for one and a half years. Eventually, after getting married, Kenney escaped and travelled to the Far East to find himself. He taught English as a Second Language in South Korea for 16 months and, after the whole Korean peninsula learned to speak fluent American, he was forced to return home and find a real job. When he's not working, you can find him gaming, writing about games, or discussing them on the Gaming @ 30 podcast.

More Than A Feeling – My Rocksmith 60-Day Challenge
I have a very unsuccessful history with learning musical instruments. I’ve tried my hand at piano, violin, flute (Jethro Tull did it, so shut up), and electric guitar. Sure, I’ve owned/still own a harmonica, but I’m saving that for my inevitable stint in prison. It goes without saying that I can play none of these… Continue reading More Than A Feeling – My Rocksmith 60-Day Challenge
Review: Wolfenstein: The New Order
You’re going to be doing one thing and one thing only: killin’ Nazis. I can remember playing Wolfenstein 3D on my dad’s computer when I was much younger. Although I didn’t obsess over the keyboard for hours on-end, I enjoyed the fast, nauseating gameplay. The controls were responsive, there was a good selection of weapons,… Continue reading Review: Wolfenstein: The New Order

Impressions: Sanctuary RPG
SanctuaryRPG is a game about numbers… and letters, and symbols. As a matter of fact, all of these elements are used to convey more to the player than just stats and actions, even the game art is comprised of keyboard characters. This makes for a unique game in 2014 but, perhaps, vaguely familiar to those… Continue reading Impressions: Sanctuary RPG
