I know this is a little off-topic, but since Kickstarter is playing such a large role in the indie video game industry that I figured anything related to it might be interesting. Could Kickstarter replace Hollywood? I think this question could easily be extended to publishers and video games as well, where the crowd funding …

So it’s the end of another year. Honestly can’t say that I think we’d make it this far. Okay, I had my suspicions but c’mon you got to admit that 12/21/2012 got you a little worries at the beginning of this year huh? Well, here at VideoGameOlogists, we are now over a year old. …

Well, if you noticed the lacks of stuff being posted the last two days that’s because I was somehow thrown back in time. A dark and troubled times, ruled by a wicked Empire who banished the internet to another dimension. For two days I fought back horrible trolls, ogres, and demon knights to get it …

The best videogame movie ever. That is the headline I’ve been reading over the weekend from reviews for Wreck-It Ralph as the film took an impressive $49M from box office sales. And as for the title of best videogame movie, I would somewhat agree. Though Wreck-It Ralph isn’t based on any one videogame property, the …

I’m sorry for the kinda wavy consistency that original content on this site, so in the mean time, check out this kickstarter for a board game being developed by a friend of mine. I’ve played the game myself last week, and it is totally fun. If you feel like this is something you would like …

Since we’re all fans of something, I thought this video would be an interesting off-topic piece.

It’s that time of the year. The time where one must wake up in the Godforsaken hours of the morning, pick mismatched clothing with one eye open, and eat the stale crumbs of your average breakfast cereal. Ah, school. As Hellish as you were to me during those pubescent times, I learned a lot from …

The Olympics are in full effect and almost everyone in this household is watching some type of game broadcasted on television ranging from archery to gymnastics. Everyone except me. Nothing against my country’s best athletes, I just don’t like watching sports unless I’m the one playing. For everyone else, the passive act of watching Michael …

I have Final Fantasy XIII-2 and Deus Ex: Human Revolution sitting on my desk begging me to play them. Dead Island is hidden just under them while Bioshock is shaking its head telling me to finish him first. Then there’s Steam popping up first thing when I boot up my PC wanting me to login. …

As someone who was at a midnight showing of Batman, this was pretty terrifying to hear about. Something like this is absolutely horrifying and everyone at VideoGameOlogists wishes to send their condolences to those who lives have been directly affected by this tragedy. I posted this video for a couple of reasons. The first is …

A week without videogames Ever had those days where you didn’t want to touch the Xbox or the PS3? What if that effect lasted for a week? Doctors would rejoice at your first steps to recovering from videogameitis, but for me I didn’t do this on purpose. It just sort of happened, yet I don’t …

Have you ever traveled somewhere, say Hawaii, with your family for a peaceful vacation yet someone insists on bringing a little piece of home along for the ride, like the Xbox or PS3? “It’s so the kids don’t get bored,” you or your parents would say. And when you’re setup in your temporary home, rather …

It’s only May, but according to Hollywood it is officially summer. Before the rascals finish school for the semester, I’m savoring every moment of peace and quiet until the herd of wild coyotes overtakes every outdoor venue known to man. My plan for the summer: stay indoors. Screw the beach. Last time I jumped in …

First off, I’m sorry for not posting a weekly update last week, but I was on Spring break and went to Disneyland and had a bunch of other fun stuff (including doing taxes). For the last week I’ve been playing Kid Icarus: Uprising for the 3DS and let me tell you that it is …

I wanted an opportunity to have some off-topics posts and now is as good a time as ever. For those who don’t follow the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic fandom, there is a background character who was recently edited from itunes to become a bit more soulless. Her fan name was “Derpy …
