Dragon Age: White Origins
I will note that while I am critical of Dragon Age in this post, I am enjoying the game and it has taken over most of my gaming time.Ronia is a character I make in most games where I can customize. She is the first 'best friend' I made who made me realize the impact of a true friendship based on respect and admiration. She is both similar enough to me while having a very distinct personality from my own that playing a game while imagining how she would see things presents a delight. Like many, I started creating characters in the pre-released generator that BioWare provided for Dragon Age: Origins. Ronia was the second of these characters.

FAGS
A while ago I made a conscious choice not to address games that have yet to be released, though I never formally codified such a rule. That lacking of a formal code is what brings me here today after Infinity Ward's latest video for Modern Warfare 2 (about which I was slightly interested after leaked footage of the terrorist mission). After a night of sleeping on the matter and reading other

Raydians: Persons of Color
de Blob is deceptively simple. The goals of the game are to combat the evil INKT corporation, who have sapped all the color from Chroma City, and made corporate drones of its citizens, the Raydians. Blob is on a mission with his crew to restore color and hope to the city.S

I am not Jokanaan
When I learned that Tale of Tales was working on a play inspired by Oscar Wilde's Salomé, I grew excited. There are many reasons I love the play, and among them is that when I read it and start staging it in my head (the curse and joy of being involved in theater and reading plays), I can see what themes are importa

Charted! Mapped!
Spoilers for Uncharted: Drake's Fortune lie ahead.Theater in Medieval times is not often brought up for lengthy discussions; there wasn't much. This was the era of mystical, mystery, and morality plays. Setting their themes to those of the Bible, they were performed with the acceptance of the church, and not really pushing much in the way of innovation (though it did see the first recorded female playwright, Hrosvitha). It was during this period of theater history that we see the emergence of the play Everyman, however.In very plain symbolism, Everyman encounters God, Death, Good Deeds, Goods, et cetera. Its function was to prov
