Based on George Orwell’s 1984, this is a video game that puts the player in the role of an investigator with access to futuristic surveillance systems with the goal of preventing a terrorist plot. With time being extremely limited, the player is forced to make difficult decisions often with very little information. The decisions that…
If you have watched the youtuber nigahiga, you may have witnessed him and his friends playing Fakin’ It. This is a game mode that can be found on the Jackbox 3. If you are unaware of what Jackbox Games is, to sum up, it is a series of video games designed to be played at parties or…
Dedicated to SHAD Western Fellows of 2017, Program Directors and Assistants and everyone who made my summer SHAD experience possible. You can find a few accounts of SHAD Fellows’ experiences here on Youth Are Awesome, and from each of them you can easily deduce that SHAD is certainly a summer of a lifetime. I can…
What do you think is better, playing your favourite game on a PC or console (like Xbox, Playstation or the Wii)? I have three reasons that lead me to believe that PC Gaming is better than console. 1. PC hardware: Keyboards and mice are compatible to different hot keys. For example, you can change the…
To start off the new year, you should consider investing in supporting independent developers. Other than all of the epic deals on Steam, there are several different indie deal/bundles that exist on the internet! You have the Humble Bundle, which I previously wrote in this post. Every so often they have bundles with about 5…
You might be tired of me advertising these bundles… but I think it’s important that you know about them.

If you went giddy over Steam deals, get this: Android, iOS and Mac…
I’m sure you all know how much I love Steam and indie games and all that good stuff. Well, this week, Steam has a lot of KILLER deals! If you didn’t notice by now, every week at Steam there’s always Midweek Madness–awesome deals that eat up your money and time! It’s genius, really. Plus, you’re supporting a lot of indie developers and that’s always an important thing.
So I’m pretty sure that you all know how much I love buying indie games, especially when they’re on sale. In fact, I think I have a horrible habit of buying PC games on sale and never play them. That’s okay, developers love people like me! Anyway, I have a fantastic deal-breaker for you today.…
Do you like donating to charity? Do you like playing video games? If your answer is yes, then you should give indie games a try. If hardcore shooters aren’t your thing, try some puzzle games or platformers (think: old school Mario)
It’s here again! I know I’m a bit late, but… better late than never! Until July 10, Steam users have an opportunity to get achievements (tasks to do in games) and receive golden tickets. These tickets will allow you to purchase small items for games, such as downloadable content like maps and skins for characters.…
Have you ever played a game and wanted to message your friend at the same time? Did you ever want to log on MSN but didn’t want to minimize your game screen? Well, have no fears, Steam is here! Okay I admit, that was a lameduction intro. But I needed to get your attention! So…
