A New Series! What I'm Playing...

Ugh!  Get off me, zombies!!!
Hey there.  I'm going to start a new series.  I don't think I've started a new one since my "Thoughts on..." series.  I've gotten much positive feedback on that series and I'm extremely grateful.  So now, I bring you guys my, "What I'm Playing..."  series.  This series is NOT a review and will be different from my Thoughts On series.  See... here's the thing...  I play a lot of video games.  Being a blogger, I tell myself that I will post my thoughts on it when I have a moment.  That moment comes and goes and the blog post is never started.  Before I know what happened, I'm already 4 games ahead of what I planned on writing about and feel overwhelmed and ultimately... none of the games get their own post.

PunchTab Top Points Earner for January 2013 Winner

Hey there.  Thank you all for Tweeting, Commenting, +1ing and all that good stuff.  We started off the new year on a shaky start.  It's weird to me how my pageviews from Google gradually diminished through the month.  It was a little weird and I'm still trying to get to the bottom of it.  But either way, I still plan on rewarding you guys for stopping by and spreading the word about Metallman's Reverie.  So let's get straight to it.  And the winner is...

Time to Update my Technorati Profile

Hey there.  Technorati...  here's your claim code: MKUS9AU7PYTY.  This will be a quick post.  It's pretty much to verify my account with Technorati.  I've noticed that my blog stats have slowly dwindled the past couple of weeks and I'm a little baffled as to why.  My Alexa Ranking has significantly lowered even though I show visitors staying longer on my page.  Anyways, I've decided to visit some of the blog directories that I used to be a part of and update the information.  I figured that it can't hurt to make sure my information is up to date.

Deja Vu

MIND.... BLOWN!!!  It all makes perfect sense now!

Thoughts on... Pester (XBLA Game) by Flump Studios

Hey there.  Our good friends over at Flump Studios are at it again and have released another GREAT XBLA game!  Super Killer Hornet (SKH) was pretty cool and now they have released Pester, another great shooter that takes me back to the days of Gradius and Galaga.  Pester is currently available at the Xbox Live Marketplace for a mere 80 MS!  Before we get into the game itself, I want to give a little info on Flump Studios.  Flump Studios is an up and coming small indie game developer and they are based in the UK.  They have been working on games for about a year now and have developed a few mobile games before their SKH release on Xbox Live Arcade. Pester is their second game into the marketplace and I believe they are already working on thier next title.  I respect all game developers but it's something about the indie titles that I feel more drawn too.  I feel as if they are living their dream and it's pretty cool to see thier hard work finally pay off.  That's a big reason why I enjoyed Indie Game: The Movie... but that's for another post.  Now... my thoughts on....  Pester!
