    Hay Day

    I'm a sucker for casual games. I played Hay Day for about a year before I got caught up in another game. I really like the feeling that things are still happening in-game, even when I'm not actively playing. I also like that I don't have to constantly monitor everything since you just plant a...

    Do you play Emulator games?

    Since I got rid of all my consoles from moving around so much, I looooove emulators. I love that kick of nostalgia from going back and playing old games. I always go back to the same ones over and over...Legend of Zelda, FFX, FFX-2 (don't judge...), Secret of Mana. It's so comforting to be able...

    Would you play games that were designed to help you mentally?

    I've been reading more and more about researchers looking into the benefits (rather than the detriments, for a change) that video games can have on people. Some games apparently help alleviate depression or anxiety. If psychologists and game developers worked on creating games that were...

    Steam Machines

    I'm not really impressed, but that's mainly because I've learned to basically hate Steam. I think the idea is great - brilliant even. But Steam has always given me problems.

    Legend of Mana!

    Yes! I adored Legend of Mana! I really was, and I think still is, quite different from any other game out there. The way you had so many options for progressing the storyline, the strange crafting system, the pets. It was all just different enough to make a really unique game. I was also in love...

    Legend Of Zelda Vs. Super Mario

    I loooved Zelda but it was ridiculously hard. Especially when I go back and play it these days... True, Mario didn't have quite the same sense of accomplishment as Zelda, but it was just as fun and not quite as frustrating when you died. But if I had to choose, I would definitely go with Zelda...
