Game of Thrones - A Telltale Game Series Episode One: Iron From Ice Review
It's silly o' clock in the morning, the perfect time for Game of Thrones embargoes to lift! Here's my review of episode one of Telltale's new game based on the HBO series.
The Jimquisition 03: The Slaughtering Grounds - A Steam Meltdown Saga
The original version of this episode never made it to YouTube, but that's just as well - a lot happened even as the original aired, so you can considered this the "Complete Edition," like wot dem videogames do. In this extended video (basically two episodes in one), we relate the old meltdown story, and then bolt on everything that happened after ImminentUprising hit me with a takedown notice. It only gets madder.
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker Review
Behold, my review for Nintendo's upcoming puzzle-platformer. It's very cute n' stuff!
November 2014 Patreon supported
Thank you so much for the support this month!
Podquisition Episode One Is Live!
The debut of The Jimquisition's official super duper podcast is now up for your enjoyment! I am joined by Laura Kate and Miracle of Sound to discuss the latest game nonsense... and some horrible things.
Dear Nintendo, I Would Like The Following Amiibos.
It's been a while since I wrote this kind of gibberish. Was inspired to do so by thinking about how much I really want an Amiibo of Ekans.
Jimquisition Livestream: The Slaughtering Grounds
To celebrate the removal of the copyright strike on my YouTube channel, I took to the Jimquisition Twitch channel to play The Slaughtering Grounds. Split in two parts, this session involves around two hours of one of 2014's worst games. While not explicitly covered by Patreon, Jimquisition as a live streaming show is something I will probably be doing more of as bonus content. It's fun, it engages with you lot, and it's nice to thro...
This War of Mine Review
This is going to be one of 2014's true sleeper hits. It's been called a cross between State of Decay and Papers Please, and that's not entirely inaccurate. Beautiful game. Worth checking out.
Tales from the Borderlands Episode One: Zer0 Sum Review
Reviewing Telltale's newest project, a very strong season premiere for what's shaping up to be the most engaging Borderlands experience yet.
The Jimquisition 02: Sonic Gloom
Time for a new Jimquisition on your Monday morning! This week, we discuss Sonic Boom, as well as Sega's history of misguided reinvention when it comes to the maligned hedgehog.
Far Cry 4 Review
Better late than never! Finally was able to get through Far Cry 4 this weekend, and here's my review. It was... okay. I didn't love it.
Review Score Guide For The Jimquisition
Today I finally codified the review score guide for The Jimquisition. The score scale is very similar to the one I wrote out for Destructoid because, well, I think it works damn well! Some people expressed surprise at my continued use of scores, because it's assumed all reviewers want to break free of the tyrannical rule of numbers. I like 'em though! I use review scores because I choose to, not because I am bound by some law that deman...
Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric Review
Here's a fine example of something I might not have been able to quite get away with on another website. I went to some ghoulish places with this review. I can't say the game didn't deserve it!
Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Review
Check out what I think of Nintendo's latest entry in the turtle-on-fox violence simulator series!
Grand Theft Auto V (PS4/XBO) Review
Knockin' out the work, bit by bit! Here's a review for the rereleased version of GTA V. I dig it!
Escape Dead Island review
The Jimquisition's first review is now live! Unfortunately it couldn't be particularly positive, but I think it's at least decently written. The site's still very "Wordpressy," as a few folk have pointed out. Evolutions will be had. I tell you what though, I'm utterly delighted to have reviews all on one page again!
The Jimquisition 01: The Reviewbisoft Problem
While I've done over 200 episodes of my show to date, I'm gonna start labeling them from scratch to keep things clean. So, here's the "first" episode of the fully indie Jimquisition. Your support so far has been bloody amazing. I did not expect this to blow up so big and so soon. Thank you, you crazy folks!
