    Boy...it's slow out there in the world of gaming. Well, not totally slow. Gaming has recently been blessed with the wonderful indie title Frozen Synaspe (it has been garnering straight 9/10s & 4/5s...I told you it was good!), and Combat Mission: Battle for Normandy has been sneaking into my playlist as well. And I am sure this week is going to be super-busy what with E3 kicking off, so stay tuned for a lot of news (fingers crossed), hopefully with some of it proving exciting enough to remind me why I am a gamer in the first place. Outside of that

  2. History on the Telly

    Hey everyone, this started out as a rant and kind of turned into something else as I continued writting this frustration out. I hope you all bear with me and that also, maybe there can be some discussion on this as well. I was originally going to post this on another forum but decided to post it here since I feel I can attain a larger variety of view points. Since this is basically cut and pasted, I apologize in advance for any redundancy in my... "rant" I guess you could call it.

    Here goes:

    Today’s tragedy in Arizona, where a “pot-smoking loner” shot and killed or wounded numerous individuals, including Arizona Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and U.S. District Judge John Roll, is a reminder that when one enters into the world of politics, danger is always ...

    Just an amusing factoid:

    After going through my Word documents, I see that over the course of 2010, I compiled and published 315 pages of gaming-related news alone. In addition to that, GameSquad also published assorted reviews, editorials, previews, interviews and other miscellanea. All told, that amounts to about 400+ pages of material! And it was a slow year!

    I can't wait to see what 2011 will bring!

    To everyone at GameSquad, both contributors and community members alike, thanks for making it a great ...
