Rekindled Flames: Journeying Back to Writing Amidst Life’s Turmoil
Lost in the whirlwind of life’s demands, I found my haven at TheCli3nt.com fading into obscurity. Time, that elusive thief, seemed to snatch away moments once reserved for cherished pursuits like writing. But amidst this chaos, a dormant flame began flickering within me. It wasn’t a thunderous revelation that reignited this passion. No, it was… Continue reading

Review: Ghost Recon Wildlands Closed Beta
Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands wasn’t on my radar when it was announced at E3 2015. It wasn’t until I took part in the Tom Clancy’s Rainbow 6 Siege beta back in 2015 and one of my squad mates, Bubble4life9, asked me if I was going to get it. Since I had just been killed… Continue reading

Anticipation Divided
When the closed beta for Tom Clancy’s The Division began, I was beside myself with excitement. From the moment I saw that first video at E3, The Division was THE game I had been waiting for (second only to Fallout 4); since I had missed the alpha, there was NO way I was going to… Continue reading

Bethesda Becoming A Gaming Behemoth
Yesterday was the one month mark since the release of Fallout 4 (it was also DOOM’s 22nd birthday) and you’d think by now, I’d have published my review of it. Well, after cleansing the Commonwealth for more than 200 hours (7 Main Quests completed, 2,752 kills, 16 Bobbelheads collected and a sweet little homestead on Spectacle… Continue reading

Disney Marketing Is Evil
Star Wars. Those two words can conjure up a lot of feelings in a nerd. From the first time we saw the Death Star or Princess Leia in Jabba’s Slave Girl outfit to our collective voices crying out in terror after watching the Prequels. When George “I’m A Crybaby” Lucas “quit” because we all hated… Continue reading

PlayStation Playing Catch Up
I love my Xbox One. Unlike most “haters,” and even though I’m part of the Preview Program and get early access to beta features, I haven’t had any problems with it. Not to say I am a fanboy or anything, I just enjoy the Xbox a lot more than I do my PlayStation 3. However.… Continue reading

Interview: American McGee Revisted
There are very few things I am more passionate about than gaming. And passion doesn’t really describe my love for the Quake series of games, specifically Quake II (Lithium mod’s grappling hook and double-barreled shotgun). I recently found some old 2005 interviews I did with Tom Hall, Michael Abrash, and American McGee. Put these three… Continue reading

Renewing My Love For The FPS
When it comes to video games, the Quake series is my end-all, be-all pick for best ever. I love FPS games…as long as they’re on a PC. Give me a keyboard and mouse and I will own a map. But give me a controller and I’m a n00b. So when I got a Rainbow Six… Continue reading

Interview: American McGee – Quake Revisited Part 4
In 2005 I was honored with the opportunity to interview some of my favorite developers in the gaming community: Tom Hall, Michael Abrash and American McGee. I’m still waiting for John Carmack and John Romero, but in the meant time, I am going to finish my Quake Revisited series with my American McGee interview. At the time… Continue reading
