Dead Island Music Video
The last time I posted a video on YouTube with music, it had its audio track removed after a few days, so who knows how long this video will stay up and visible. And truthfully, it's not that good; you get a window into how I'm actually not all that good at video games. BUT, there's a moment (at time index 1:29) where the music syncs up perfectly with the mayhem. It's only a single moment, and probably not worth the build-up, but watch it anyways. Be a pal.

Sporcle Quiz - River City Ransom Shops
Hey guys, I posted a new quiz over on Sporcle. This one's about the classic NES game River City Ransom, asking you to name each of the shops in the game. Not super-exciting, but hey, I'm still getting my feet wet, still getting the hang of the mechanics. My next quiz will be epic...or at least a bit more fun.

March Madness - Jake and Amir
Jake and Amir is a web series that I've been watching pretty consistently for a couple years now. And while it's gone a little downhill, the one thing I can always come back to when I'm looking for a laugh is the March Madness episodes. So, with the madness upon us, enjoy:

Sporcle - Diablo Quiz
As a sports fan, I love trivia. Trying to remember the minutiae of decades of happenings, even if I'm not particularly good at it, is fun as hell.
Enter Sporcle. The site is basically a wiki-trivia page. Any user can create a quiz on any topic, and post it for others to play. It's fairly simple, but with a good number of options. I spend most of my time on the sports section, but there are quizzes on entertainment, geography, history, and yes, video games.
So anyways, I made a tiny little quiz. And I'll make more. Promise.

Puzzle Agent 2...EPIC
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3XJfKO9ydp0vlLG5T5HtN3HxsoABR2ciHPBAf7Fwav8s59jPpbKWUxBdd2H1atjcq9vYmyDDYL4m0fTXzUspBz5XnnuVJasI8MaFFCa1Bzwz8hyrZ-GqcgqOwO8JMoILGfmrgK4FcWQt0/s320/scoggins.jpeg)
Honestly, this picture only tells you about 4% of the epicness of Puzzle Agent 2.
Actually, if we're being truthful here, the puzzles in this game aren't as good as in the original. And the story is a little more hokey. But it's a fun time-killer, and has low system requirements, so it runs on my work machine. And that's clutch.

Space Time Caps Tickets
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYfXMkX1rji5n01BRxodWv2Ukpho6qovND8YKTg7LhME60k5H5lbW4oT8H1YXRiueCnTulHqa4KpzXQenSxjVadtNkiJfYw08naUyXR-NZmIfei1Ne4mN8kcQUi65pmNsyfC2d4uKSl3Tj/s320/capstixdates.bmp)
Do you see the issue with the ad in the middle of the screen? I'll give you a clue: it's not that the ticket prices are outrageous (though I believe they are).
Need another clue?
Look at the bottom right. They're advertising tickets for a game gone by. They did win the game 4-3, though, so if you could travel back in time to go to the game, at least it's a win.
