My newest article is up on . It's the first I've done that bridges video and tabletop games. indiecardboard.com/index.php/knap
Hey , what do you think the Buffalo Sabres need to change up to make a serious run at the Cup next season? #CoachHibbet
Was asked this morning by a game company to take down a review from our front page. We didn't like their game. These grapes are sour.

Writing a feature to compare/contrast the tabletop and video game spaces. Would love to talk with some video game journos.

Reading about Creative Assembly's take on Alien I'm reminded of Clock Tower. This is a very good thing.
Replying to
. If you close your eyes you can feel me hugging the whole team right now with all my arms. I <3 this game.

Whelp, it's after midnight here which means it's my birthday. I'm celebrating by hitting the hay. Not literally. Nobody got me any hay.

Mario Kart 8 can't come soon enough. Can't wait to show that video to my kiddo.
Well that video at the end of the Nintendo Direct was crazy pants.
Sitting alone in my Smart Car outside a Toys R Us waiting for the #XboxOne. I'm sure "smart" is just a suggestion.
Excited for the new game box tomorrow, but I bet it's overshadowed Christmas morning by a certain five foot sword from

I'm SO excited for Joseph to unwrap the Xbox One & Forza 5 on Christmas morning. Can't wait to race him and see his smile. #priceless

Did you know that I love to write about board games? It's true, I have a new interview up on my site to prove it! indiecardboard.com/euphoria
A shame video games aren't more like board games. You can house rule fun into a mediocre tabletop game. A meh video game is blah forever.
I wrote up a new board game review this week, this time for Flash Point: Fire Rescue. indiecardboard.com/flash-point-fi

Maybe Valve should ask Trip Hawkins how this idea of "one OS, multiple manufacturers" worked out for him.

No online multiplayer on pandemic for iPad feels really backwards. Precious few advantages over just playing the board game then.
Hey , if you wanna offload that Forza thingy & are open to mailing it, I'd love to pay you. My 10 year old would <3 it
My kiddo saw a video for Forza Horizon & quickly said "Dad, I don't think that's appropriate for me." He really wants to try the new one tho

Very thankful that the most edgy game my kiddo wants to play is single player Minecraft.

Sad that kids will be given GTA V this week by parents who would rather let games babysit their kids than take an active role in their lives

Asked my son if he was sad I wasn't reviewing Disney Infinity and he just smiled and said "No, dad, cuz now we can play just for fun."
After Ducktales, I'm not sure I can get on board with anymore reimagings of video game classics for a while, Castle of Illusion included.

I like games that are fun. My fun might not be your fun. Let's all enjoy some fun stuff.

Apparently both GTA and Saints Row can't both be great. Imagine a world where TWO games can exist and both be really fun.

Today is all about Ducktales: Remastered. You all can have your news, family and precious oxygen. I'm riding a duck to the moon.

Explaining a logo is a lot like explaining why a joke you just told me is funny. #nintendo
Mmmm, portable Luigi love. ♥♥♥
In-game photography is the very definition of "I didn't ask for this." Did anyone?
