Let’s Think Deep: Books and Games

Escapism. Through whatever medium we use, we are all searching for that elusive experience that takes us elsewhere; that state of mind in which we aren’t concerned about our money problems, our painful lack (or disturbing presence) of a significant other, or whatever war or natural disaster is happening in whatever part of the world.

Let’s Think Deep: Nintendo Explained By a Lifelong Fanboy

Today is a special occasion for me here at Toy-Too Much Awesome. Today is my 300th post (according to my backend stats), so I wanted to celebrate by writing something very near to me as both an interest and part of my identity. For my last milestone I talked all about my greatest Pokemon accomplishments [...]

You versus the world (and that’s not a good thing)

I’m not a very competitive person by nature but when it comes video games, there is always motivation to be better than others. Unfortunately, it has become increasingly more difficult to actually be the best at any video game and it’s not because the games are getting harder; it’s thanks to the use of worldwide [...]

Let’s Think Deep: The Download Conundrum

We’re hitting a critical time in the lifetime of video games where a great shift is occurring.

Even more, the way games are made has undergone a fundamental alteration [...]

Five years later and I still have Wii Regret

Let’s Think Deep: The Mind of a Fanboy

Why haven’t I Thought Deep for a while? I’m not really sure. I might as well fix that by diving into a topic I’ve mentioned before: Fanboyism (or Fangirlism, but it’s easier to write “fanboy,” so just replace the gender pronouns to enjoy the article more if that’d otherwise be a deal-breaker). What makes someone [...]

Let’s Think Deep: Kinect And What It Means

Microsoft’s big new motion controller apparatus was officially released last week, showing the world what a non-controller could look like. A handful of games have come out for it (notice that I’ve reviewed none of them) and huge changes occurred to the Xbox as a whole. But what does Kinect really mean for us? What [...]

What You May Have Missed In September 2010

Now that we’re knee deep into October, many of us are beginning to forget about September. And why not? October has Halloween, whereas September traditionally has back-to-school, one of the worst times in the history of ever. Seriously, does anyone enjoy heading back to school? If you do, I don’t really want to know, but [...]
