The Last Guardian Review (Spoilers)
Posted on January 11, 2017 by Dan Zarzycki - No Comments
The Last Guardian begs the question, how do you review a game that has been stewing in the development pot for 10 years?
In the Fall of 2016, pigs are flying and hell is freezing over. Final Fantasy XV, a game that started development in 2006 as Final Fantasy Versus XIII, was released to the masses. And now, with surprisingly little fanfare, the Last Guardian is here as well.
Originally announced at E3 2009, the Last Guardian has seen numerous development freezes, the changing of studio names (Sony Japan >> genDESIGN), and the move from the Playstation 3 to the Playstation 4.

The Witness Review
Posted on December 6, 2016 by Dan Zarzycki - No Comments
I remember my reaction when I checked my Facebook feed on a Saturday morning to learn that the Witness had arrived on Playstation 4. I raced upstairs to boot up and download the game, a sense of excitement I probably hadn’t felt since I was a teenager.
No Man’s Sky Review
Posted on December 4, 2016 by Dan Zarzycki - No Comments
At no time in gaming’s relatively short history has “don’t listen to the hype” been more accurate than in the case of “No Man’s Sky”, the space simulator from Hello Games. Sean Murray, the game’s lead, said quite a bit leading up to the launch. Many feel that the game did not live up to the lofty promises made by the creators in the numerous press conferences leading up to the game’s launch.
Why I don’t play Fantasy Football

And now to shift gears to another topic I am passionate about.
Sports.
More specifically, I wanted to talk about my passion for American football and the many issues I have with Fantasy Football, from the game itself to the impact on the sport.
