I’ve been wanting to write an article for some time now about why I have such enormous respect for Valve. It’s more the quality of their games. More than the fact that Steam is in my startup folder. Valve is recognizable as a force of good in the universe. So let’s discuss, shall we?
It feel so soon, but here we are already at the second Monday of March! It was really difficult to select games for this month, since I’ve almost exclusively been playing the Starcraft II beta. Anyway: I”ll be reviewing Aliens vs. Predator, Shattered Horizon, and the demo for Supreme Commander 2. Let’s kick this pig!
Hello again! It’s the first Saturday of March so that means another round of Indie games! Today I have some quick reviews for: Eversion, The Company of Myself, and Tower of Heaven! Read the rest of this entry

Yep. This time, we get a look at a more “human” Samus Aran…
Today is a glorious day, my friends. Today shall forever be known as the day The Astringent Gaming Journal reached 11,111 views.
In case you live under a rock, “CutMan Mike” Michael Hill happens to be the driving force behind such games as ZPortal, Ghouls VS Humans and Level Master. His most recent project, Megaman 8-Bit Deathmatch, is a new take on a classic, combining the fun of a free-for-all deathmatch FPS game with the retro quality of the classic 8-bit Megaman series.
[Big thanks to Mr. Origami for doing this logo for me! Respekt!]
That’s right! Behind the scenes, slaving away, (but having the time of my life) there’s been me, playing the Starcraft II beta. This is my grand contribution to the 11,111th view celebration. I might even call it an extravasplosion. (crtl + f, extravasplosion)
I beseech you, everyone: hit the jump the read this post in its entirety, and check out both the post from Mr. Wirefly and the post from Mr. Origami. Let’s get started.
Wow 11,111 views. And within the first year! I just want to take this time to thank every single one of you for being a part of it. Even though I have only been here for about 3,000 of them I have watched TAGJ blossom into a beautiful gaming review flower…uh…anyway I just want to thank Eden and Origin for letting me become a part of the team.
