So I’ve played a bit of The War Z over the last few days… they lifted the NDA, so I can freely talk about it. It’s obviously direct competition to Day Z, and they’re both technically in “pre-release” testing, so I think it’s fair to compare the two. I mentioned earlier this week that I […]

I hope everyone made it through the hurricane safely. We had some trees and powerlines come down in my neighborhood, but fortunately the trees didn’t hit any houses and (somehow) we didn’t lose power either. Some of the pictures I’ve seen are heartbreaking, and not everyone got through it unscathed. I’m hoping for a safe […]

I’m still playing XCOM pretty much every chance I get. I am now on my thirteenth Classic Ironman campaign (not counting the few I did on my laptop at AAC last weekend) after suffering crushing defeats in the previous attempts. Every time I get a little bit further, get a little bit better, though. In […]

I’m all packed up and about to head out to Another Anime Con up in Manchester, New Hampshire. If you’re in the area, stop by and say hi! I’ll have a table and I’m also doing two panels. That’s about 50% more panels than I think I need, but we’ll see what happens. There’s one […]

Just a reminder, I’ll be up in Manchester New Hampshire this weekend for Another Anime Convention. I think I’m doing a panel, and I’ll have a table there as well. I hope I get to meet some of you there! I’m still working on Dishonored, and it continues to be pretty awesome stuff. I’ll definitely […]

I keep forgetting to post this. If you’re looking for the past storyline where Ethan first builds his time machine, you can find the beginning of that story arc right here.

As I was loading up the website, I suddenly noticed there was a dry-humping banana off to the side there in one of the banner ads. Apparently this free to play shooter Offensive Combat is in open beta. Seems like it has quite a bit of wild customization… I may give it a look.

I spent a good portion of yesterday and this morning playing Dishonored, and so far, I’m really enjoying it. The atmosphere is great, even if the story is a little uninspired. It manages to mix aspects from a number of different games and come out feeling like its own product. It doesn’t quite do sneaking […]

The Frat boy Vader shirt design that I posted a while back is finally available in our store: CAD – Bro Vader t-shirt design @ © SplitReason.com In light of the current storyline, I also wanted to remind you of this poster from a few years ago. All copies are signed. CAD – Zeke poster […]

Dishonored comes out tomorrow, and I’m encouraged by early reviews. It looks like a neat amalgamation of Thief, Bioshock, Half-Life and Hitman, and I’m glad to hear it has been pulled off with at least some success. I haven’t played it yet, but from watching videos I’ve already noticed a number of flaws that will […]

I do feel like I should mention that as much as I enjoy Torchlight 2 I am slightly disappointed with the way it handles many of the boss fights, and that is to say that generally the mechanics (and difficulty) are derived solely from a “Hey, I see you’re trying to fight a boss. Here, […]

Torchlight 2 has cemented itself as better than Diablo 3 in my books, and now that I’ve had a couple of weeks to play it, I think I can start to narrow down why. At first it was just a feeling, but now I’m noticing the actual mechanical differences. The first difference, I’d say, would […]

In a few weeks I’ll be up in Manchester, New Hampshire for Another Anime Con. I’m a guest, so I’ll likely have a panel, and I’ll be there with a table hanging out. I may have some books and t-shirts as well. I’ve never attended this convention before (in fact, I’ve never done a convention […]

Games I’m catching up on the releases I missed while I was on vacation… Borderlands 2 is proving to be even better than the first game, and Torchlight 2 is proving to be not only better than the first game, but better than Diablo 3 as well. I’ll talk more about that one once I’m […]

Speaking of new game releases… the new World of Warcraft expansion launches this week. I left WoW well over a year ago, and I find that I have absolutely no inclination to return for this expansion. With that in mind, I’ve decided to sell my full set of World of Warcraft Collector’s Editions. I’ve had […]

So, I was on vacation in Ireland for the last couple of weeks. Britanny and I flew into Dublin, where we spent the first few days. We then rented a car and struck out to see the rest of the country. It was absolutely amazing, and I wish we could have spent more time there. […]

In all liklihood, due to uninterrupted comics, you didn’t realize I was away. It appears that in the craziness of geting two weeks worth of comics drawn up and packing/preparing for my trip, I forgot to mention it on my way out. At any rate, if you did notice, that’s where I’ve been. On vacation. […]

All preorder books began shipping in early August, so if you preordered a book, or a bundle of books, you’ve probably already got your books. However books are now shipping for everyone that didn’t preorder as well, so if you missed out, you can still get your hands on the collections in our store! The […]

A while back I mentioned that I wasn’t planning to play Guild Wars 2, but due to an NDA, I didn’t feel like I could go into any depth as to why. Obviously that’s no longer an issue, so I figure now is as good a time as any. It’s not that I feel that […]

You know what’s better than a normal week? A week where a new episode of The Walking Dead comes out. I’ll post about it after I’ve finished it, but really I’m not expecting anything less than amazing.

Sleeping Dogs continues to hold my attention pretty well… in fact I may even be on track to 100% it, which is a rarity for me. It just does everything so well it’s hard not to love the hell out of the game. It continues to have a bit of a crisis of conscience though… […]

Feeling much better this weekend!

I’m posting news now, even though the comic doesn’t update for a couple more hours, because I’m about to head to bed. After getting sick last month, I had a nagging post-viral cough I couldn’t kick, so I went to the doctor and he gave me an antibiotic and another drug called “Symbicort”, which I’m […]
