I miss Mass Effect. More than pretty much any game, it managed to inspire a connection in me to the characters and the world. Unlike most games, there was a sense of finality to the end of Mass Effect 3. Replaying the trilogy doesn’t hold the same appeal, and I miss my virtual crew and the galaxy we explored together.

I wish the real sky looked this good.

This would be a critical hit as a Valentines Day gift!

Speedpaintings are brilliant. Mass Effect is brilliant. It takes a special caliber of game to inspire this kind of artistry.

Hey guys! Cheap models!

This is basically a shameless advertisement for what has quickly become the best kickstarter ever. If you don’t know, kickstarter is a project funding webpage where people with cool ideas for stuff (games, events, products, etc) post their idea on a page. Other people who think the idea is cool can throw money at them to fund it. Depending on how much you fund the project, you get various rewards. If the project doesn’t reach the goal it sets, you don’t have to give them any money. If the project goes above and beyond expectations and reaches “stretch goals”, you get improved rewards.

Reaper Miniatures has been making gaming minis for years in pewter, and generally they cost a fair amount. This kickstarter is for a new plastic line of miniatures from the company.

Personally, I’m in for about 165 dollars so far, which is going to be getting about 140 gaming miniatures. The two funding levels I like with this are the 15 dollar level (36 models) and the 100 dollar level (110 models and growing). In addition to these funding levels, there are many other funding additions you can opt for, and more are being added daily. Check it out!

Skavv’s Rant: Gamer Girls

Alright, this one is going to be a whopper. First let me say that women who are into gaming are more than just a welcome addition to the gamer hordes; women are a big part of that subculture all on their own. The world doesn’t need to “accept” the idea of gamer girls, because the idea is already a solidified reality. The world might as well “accept” the idea of gravity.

Some time ago, when I was introduced to tumblr, I started following the “Gamer Girls” tag. The tag gave me pictures of women holding controllers over their chest, and I sacrificed copies of Duke Nukem Forever in ritual fires to appease it. The relationship was symbiotic at first.

I put this together when I realized the Mario Ghosts are basically the Weeping Angels.  Not bad for Paint.net. Thoughts?

I love this scene; the drums in the deep. It sends shivers down your spine just watching it. This is also one of my favorite things to do in games. It works well and can twist a normal encounter into something memorable.
