”I’m sorry you had to see me like that” = greatest Lost line ever' – EW.com Lost review. While I failed to mention this great quote in my initial review, I didn’t fail to notice it. Not only was it a great line, but it was delivered to perfection. By the way, the latest unique Lost [...]

Finally an episode where Kate was not mentioned once! Sure she provides a story lines and all but I’m sure the show could do fine without her.

Puzzle Chronicles Publisher: Konami Developer: Infinite Interactive Genre: Puzzle RPG Release Date: 01/28/2010 It’s kind of funny really. The genre “puzzle RPG” was created by Infinite Interactive back when they released Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords. However, they seem to be the only developers working on this kind of game. They made Galactrix, Puzzle Kingdoms, and now this game. [...]

Vandal Hearts: Flames of Judgment Genre: RPG Developer: Hijinx Studios, LLC Publisher: Konami Release Date: 01/20/2010 RPGs and I have a secret love affair.  I can tolerate more time spent with a good RPG and a bottle of rum than I can with most of my relationships.  That either says I love video games too much or am an alcoholic.  [...]

Walk It Out Publisher: Konami Developer: Konami Genre: Exercise/Bemani Release Date: 01/12/2010 Long-time readers know that I’m the go-to guy for exercise or Bemani games on the Wii.
