Game blogging update and Baseball HOFs

I'm going to move future game blogging to my Patreon page. I will occasionally make comments about non-gaming (i.e. sports stuff) here, but the gaming stuff fits more over there. I'll be starting my YouTube channel soon, so keep an eye out for that! As far as the Hall of Fame voting, in all honesty, there…

Life and times of Avindian

I have once again been absent for some time. In particular, I've yet to write on the Hall of Fame election, which I plan to do in the not-too-distant future. Similarly, I have some overdue thoughts on Madden 17 to share. I am thinking of properly starting my YouTube channel soon. I've gotten a little…

Hall of Fame Coverage

I deeply apologize to you, dear readers. I have been quite busy with other projects and have failed you. We have two Hall of Fame ballots to discuss for baseball and I haven't talked about either one! Shall we? Yes, I believe we shall! Author's note: They went and elected people to the HOF while this article was…

Browns down to 53

Cleveland cut their roster to 53 players in preparation for the season opener. Since I've watched all four preseason games, here are some thoughts about the final roster, including some of the more surprising (or not surprising) cuts. Quarterback: RGIII has looked pretty decent this preseason, and I think he'll be a good starter for Cleveland.…

Where’s the Penguatroll?

You may be asking yourself, "Where's that handsome gentleman who provided great content and has not at all been slacking with the content, not even a little?" I've undergone a rebranding in connection with my campaign to, one day, become a YouTube sensation with ALL THE VIEWERS AND SUBSCRIBERS. If you want to help me…

Game design and Uplink [A partial review you can use [TM] ]

In the Steam Summer sale, I picked up an upgrade for Prison Architect that also got me the entire back catalog of Introversion. One of those games was Uplink. Uplink is a hacking game; it's somewhat similar to Hacknet, which is much newer and text based (and in my opinion, the better game), but there's…

So long, Barkevious

I am an acknowledged fan of Barkevious Mingo, both in Madden and in real life. However, apart from his ridiculously awesome name, he produced surprisingly little on the field. He is now a New England Patriot for the price of a fifth round pick. The Patriots think he can contribute on special teams and/or act…

Penguatroll on the move

We'll be moving at the end of this week. It'll be a little bittersweet to leave Kansas, but it's just time to move on and find something a little better for us. Probably no posts from me for a while, so hopefully you find Kevin's posts on computinating brilliantly entertaining!

This War of Mine: The Review You Can Use [TM]

This War of Mine is the hardest PC game I've ever played. I do not mean that it's difficult, although it is. I mean that some of the most heart-wrenching moments I've ever experienced in gaming occurred while I was playing it. This War of Mine is a fairly simple premise: you control a group…

Why I’m giving up on Morrowind (again)

I learned a new internet acronym the other day: FOMO, or Fear of Missing Out. It's the phenomenon that occurs when everybody talks about a new form of entertainment, be it movie, TV show, music, comic book, video game, etc., and you don't want to be left out of the conversation. As a result, you…
