F’in Saved 16- Gentlemen’s Discussion

There are times when we lament being in separate parts of the county; being closer together would greatly help in some projects that we all could do. Being close for Game of the Year discussions may result in serious bodily harm to some members of the team.

F’in Saved 16 – Thwarted Again

  I am not sure why but Curiosity has me hooked. Every day I log on and start tapping away, collecting coins, and occasionally making dicks. The exact reasoning behind my captivation has me perplexed considering I find most iOS games to be a waste of valuable game time. Even Minecraft iOS, which I have spent way too much time in, feels like nothing more than a way to dispose of minutes. Maybe Curiosity will feel the same way in a few more hours.

F’in Saved 14: TMPI

So LevelSave is supposed to have a Pokemon podcast where we get real nerdy about Pokemon. It does exist, but finding the to do a podcast strictly dedicated to Pokemon is actually really hard. Because not only do I have to host, edit, and post the podcast I also have to play Pokemon all the time. If you want to survive or have a Diglett that is not laughably weak you have to put so many hours into it. I have other games to play, like Digimon guys. Lets all have our priorities...

F’in Saved 13: BlOps

By now I have already arrived at PAX and am probably on my way back. I really hope this did not actually happen. Oh and if the joke seems a little nonsensical just Listen to our podcast Save Game+ and you will probably understand.

F’in Saved 12: Weeeeeeee…

I got this idea while browsing the internet for Slender related things. It seems that there has been a huge backlash against the game, calling it “lazy” and “not scary.” My mind raced to try and come up with a reason as to why people had such vitriol for this game. I eventually arrived at the conclusion that these internet tough guy’s imaginations had died long, long ago. That thought saddens me as with out just a bit of imagination you become a...

F’in Saved: 11 Fear Itself

We all pick on Austin, and I mean we all pick on Austin. He is usually a very good sport about it and I hope he realizes that if we did not pick on him then we would not care about him. To be fair though, he asks for it. If you think my jokes are bad, try talking to Austin about anything; it will almost always end in a poop joke that makes about as much sense as Kingdom Hearts.

F’in Saved 10: Perspective

Give this one a bit to load guys, it is a big picture. Publicity is such a strange thing. And with the cynicism present in the gaming community today it is easy to take EA’s actions as such. I did, at least. I mean, how much damage can Mothra really do? Also, you probably noticed that this was not done in the typical Pixel Art fashion. That is because F’in Saved is not limited, in my mind, to just pixels. I like mixing things up like this from time to time...

F’in Saved 7: Safety First

But really, where are those damn rails? I got to thinking about this a while ago while playing through Pokemon Black 2. One of the additions the developers have strived to achieve is a sense of place. Meaning that objects are not just obstacles but actually make sense. The walls are covered in posters, decapitation looks believable, and there are damn rails where there should be.

F’in Saved 6: Slim Chances

So I heard a little buzz about this game called Slender. In it you have to collect 8 pages while Slenderman chases you down in the woods. He will warp around, behind, and beside you anywhere in this forest. What this means is that you are trapped in an environment where jump scares are dynamically generated. The sheer terror generated from this ambivalent monster watching and chasing you is maddening. So when the dread has built, the mood is right, and you just start to feel...

F’in Saved 4

  This spawned out of someone telling Brad that he did not like Nintendo games because he had “forgotten how to have fun.” Maybe they are right, maybe they are wrong. It is interesting to think back to your wee ages as a gamer and the crap games you endured. Back then though you never endured games that were bad, you enjoyed them. Was it nativity, innocence, or have we all really just forgotten to have fun? Nintendo games do not usually resonate with me...
