Review>>>Katawa Shoujo_


Katawa Shoujo (transl.: Disability Girls) is a Visual Novel/Eroge game released (full version) in January 2012, developed by Four Leaf Studios. Age Rating: 15+ (Act 1)/18+ (Full). OS: Windows, Mac OS X and Linux.


Katawa Shoujo is a disaster… averted.

Never have I played something with such recipe to become one of the most sinful, disgusting and overall indicative of the weirdness of the human mind: originating from a post on 4chan, Katawa Shoujo (lit.: Crippled Girls) is a game in which you play the role of Hisao, a highschooler, and pursue a relationship with one of the choice of five girls. Teenaged. Disabled. Girls. And it somehow pulls off a surprisingly insightful and respectful view regarding disabilities.

Review>>>Mass Effect 3_

[WARNING: this review may contain spoilers]

Mass Effect 3 (ME3) is an Action RPG realesed in March 2012 by developer BioWare, published by EA. ESRB rating: Mature. Platforms: XBox 360, Playstation 3 and PC. Reviewed: PC.



Ahhh, Mass Effect 3... Or maybe it should be Massive Disappointment 3?


About a month after I finished playing through the final part of the story of Commander Olivia "Liv" Shepard of the Normandy, I still can’t shake that feeling of disappointment. Not that ME3 is a bad game, mind you, on its own it’s a great game, but as the closing chapter of a trilogy? Let’s just say: proceed with caution and don’t tell me I didn’t warn you.

Living in a different dimension_


Wouldn’t it be nice if we could choose to live in a different reality where life was just peachy to us, where studying for exams was actually fun, and eating chocolate wouldn’t make us fat?

That is what Virtual Reality (VR) could give us: a different life in a different place!

What’s the drawback? Well, first and foremost, real life sucks, I’d give anything to live in that place where eating sweets wouldn’t have any negative consequences, but that would mean I’d prefer to live in a reality that isn’t my own; second, how could you guarantee that when you got bored of this new reality and wanted to return to your real life, you’d return to your reality and not another reality that looked just like your reality?

Confusing, right?
