We Were Scared Once
We were scared once. That moment of sheer adrenaline fueled terror. The distinct feel of our basic instincts kicking in as we in a moment contemplate whether or not the answer is flight or fight. Sometimes you want fight, but the rules of the game won’t let you, other times you wanna flee for your life but you’re trapped, forced to bear witness the visceral visions laid bare before you...[Read More]

While filming their piece on Perception, the team spent some extra time talking with Bill Gardner about his work on Bioshock. The latest episode is now available on Gameumentary’s Youtube channel, which primarily focuses on the...[Read More]
Perception – Interesting Concept, Disappointing Execution
Back in 2015, developer The Deep End Games started a Kickstarter for an indie project known as Perception with one of the mains selling points being that the team had members who originally worked on critically acclaimed games such as Dead Space and BioShock. Perception’s concept alone was enough to grab me once I saw the team behind it. Perception puts players in control of a blind woman, who mus...[Read More]
Perception Is A Wonderful Mix Of Atmosphere and Characterization
Survival horror is a favorite genre of mine. I’ve always enjoyed good tension and feeling helpless in a video game (if that doesn’t sound weird). In my opinion, a good horror game needs to make the player defenseless, so the stakes feel even higher when approaching a each situation. A sort of disadvantage I guess I could say, the most common one is not being much a fighter, forcing the player to r...[Read More]

The BioShock Collection Rated for PS4 and Xbox One
I got my very first Xbox 360 later than most people I knew. I got it August of 2007. The game I got for it? BioShock; and what a game. Since it was my first trip into the new generation, I was overwhelmed by not only how phenomenal the voice acting and story were, but the graphics were game changing. The airplane scene in the beginning after the crash made me hold my breath. It was amazing, and no...[Read More]

The Philosophical Question of the PSN Outage
Is online connectivity really all it’s cracked up to be? In the wake of Sony completely losing their online service for over a week, I just have to ask one potentially-obvious-but-maybe-not question: Do we as gamers really need online? In this modern era of gaming where so much is convenient and instantaneous, is online service a necessity, the future of gaming, a perk that we take for grant...[Read More]
