Mark of the Ninja

Filed under: PC Games One Response

Let’s all play spot the ninja! Remember how much I loved the Arkham Asylum and Arkham City games? Well, as one review put it Mark of the Ninja is mostly the same, except in 2D. It’s a brilliantly realized, well-crafted take on the stealth genre. The lead designer claimed that he wanted to make a […]

Mass Effect 3

Filed under: PC Games No Responses

Finally a one on one fight against a Reaper, even if you have the firepower of the entire Quarian fleet backing you up. I held off buying Mass Effect 3 for a while because it’s EA and the only way to buy it in downloadable form is on Origin. But I always knew I would […]

A year passes uneventfully. Then two. The restored Targaryen dynasty gains strength from month to month.

Supporting King Steffon are mainly Lord Paramount Eddard Stark and Lord Paramount Renly Baratheon. At first we were displeased with Lord Edmure for not allowing […]

House Martell Game Diary – Part 3

Filed under: PC Games No Responses

With King Robert Baratheon dead, the Iron Throne falls to his heir Steffon Baratheon. From our perspective, the good news is that though only 4 years old, he is visibly inbred and plainly retarded. This means that just about everyone hates the idea of him being king. Due to our previous plots, many of the […]

House Martell Game Diary – Part 2

Filed under: PC Games One Response

The rest of the year passes uneventfully but in 285, King Robert Baratheon invites Doran Martell to King’s Landing to serve as his Master of Laws. Since refusing would cause offence and it would not do to break openly with the Iron Throne so early, we accept. Besides, we surmise that being in King’s Landing […]

It is the 284th year after Aegon’s Landing. Robert’s Rebellion has ended with a decisive victory for the rebels, resulting in the establishment of House Baratheon of King’s Landing as the new royal line. House Martell, together with House Tyrell, sided with the Targaryen dynasty, despite the dishonourable acts of Rhaegar Targaryen. Rhaegar was married […]
