I talk about a game that both mystifies, annoys, frustrates and pleases me in a weird mash up of emotions that really dont fit together.

Pondis Plays: Rogue Legacy

Here is a brief explanation of why i am not a big fan of Nintendo's latest console.

Dont worry, I will regularly post why I hate other things too, its not all aimed at Nintendo.

Pondis Hates: The Wii U

I talk about The Order: 1886, a game that was announced with a fanfare but released with mixed reactions which I think is fair to say was on the bad side of the scale.

I have trouble with MMOs. I am an addict.

I have to get bigger, better, faster, stronger, killing enemies with a single thought and vaporising armies with a wave of the hand.

But before then hitting frogs with a stick and screaming if they come near me.

Pondis Ponders: MMO's

Today I think about the future of playing games with my little boy.

Its still a way off, he is only One after all.

Pondis Ponders: Co-op

I play a game that has taken up much more of my time then other AAA boxed releases in the last few weeks, Helldivers.

Sit back, relax and pour yourself some liberTEA... That joke gets old fast.

I both love and hate the PS Vita for a number of reasons, but one glaring omission drives me mad, the lack for L2 and R2 buttons...

This week I cant help but feel like character models for women are a bit... Off.

Pondis Ponders: Equality in games

These ancient and poorly recorded sound files are the inner thoughts of the Nerd known as Pondis.

His sole mission was to let the world know his deepest thoughts on the gaming industry.

Through modern analytical techniques we have discerned that his deepest thoughts were as shallow as a puddle and spouted at random with no order, rhyme or reason, but were chronicled none the less.

They indicate which games were being played by this mysterious figure, how he felt about them, what was popular at the time and random other ideas that he stuttered his way through.

These thoughts have now become little more then entertainment in our modern society with people all over the world enjoying the nonsense he recorded.

=====================================

On a more serious note, I have been writing news, reviews and blogs for a while but have since been unable to keep up with the writing, work and home life balance. 

With this in mind, I took to making short recordings, that could quickly be edited and posted online to be enjoyed or hated and flamed to death. 

The editing will be minimal, simply cutting me stumbling over my words or excessive empty space. So no auto tune... actually that sounds fun, maybe I will do it once.

Hopefully people will listen to these short thoughts and ideas and enjoy the experience. 

I don't expect to change the world, I don't want people to listen to my ideas and preach the word of Pondis, I don't want people to avoid games I haven't enjoyed. These are little more then my opinions and I hope that people can share their opinions back and make a community that can respect each others views. With any luck, people might find themselves enjoying a game they wouldn't normally have bought.
