Hey geeks!
Finally, the new template is up! The last major overhaul for my template was roughly 3-4 years ago before responsive design went mainstream and before HTML5 goodies were widely implemented. This is a fresh, new take for the blog.
There’s definitely more to gaming than violence. Lately I’ve been mulling over purchasing A LOT of simulation games. Euro Truck Simulator 2 for instance seemed like one big Internet joke but it’s become an inexplicable darling in the gaming circles and all you do is drive a truck. And that’s it — the mundane can be rather interesting. More interesting than fragging and perhaps even more interesting than playing online games like bingo (join now for free bingo), slots and the like
I’m back with the OMGeek crew with Episode 5 where we talk about non-violence in gaming. As a parent, I’ve come to the epiphany why these LEGO games exist. LEGO Batman, LEGO Star Wars — they’re all there to add a less violent spin to the more visceral titles us adults are used to seeing in the market.

N.B. Early into the show, my audio went really wonky. This was my first time recording on a PC so I couldn’t quite get the levels right. Oops.
Hey geeks! If you’re a gamer like me who has recently had life cock-block you in the face (i.e. spell RESPONSIBILITIES), you’re not alone!

The show is currently ranked at #10 in iTunes’ Top 10 Games & Hobbies category and I’m a special guest in Episode II where we talk about video games marketing. Drop by and have a listen.
