With Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon recently released, I tried to think of my favorite ghosts from the first game, as a lot of them had quite a bit of personality.  But it’s been such a long time since I played that game that I couldn’t think of enough to write about.  But then I started thinking about my favorite ghosts in other video games in general.  I think ghosts are kind of neat.  You know those dumb ghost hunter and ghost story shows you see on TV?  Yeah, I watch those sometimes.  It’s a guilty pleasure thing.  I might also watch a stupid ghost movie on Netflix from time to time, and of course, Ghostbusters is one of my all-time favorite films.  So in honor of Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon coming out, here’s a list of my top five favorite ghosts in video games!

In honor of St. Patrick’s Day, and the upcoming release of a certain game next week, I’m going to write a little tribute blog to one of video gaming’s most famous green-clad heroes: Luigi!  I’m not going to take a look at EVERY game Luigi’s been in, just the ones I feel are most important.  At one time, Luigi was originally my favorite Mario character.  That is, until Super Mario Kart came along and I realized how awesome Toad was.  But Luigi is still tops in my book, way cooler than Mario anyway.  Anyway, let’s take a look at some of Luigi’s highlights in gaming.

Well it’s another batch of reviews I’ve been writing recently for GamerDad.com this time, folks.  Please click on and read as many as you can, I’d appreciate it.

Last year, a couple of months before the Wii U was released, I wrote a series of blogs about my favorite games on the Wii.  One of the categories I wrote about was game collections.  One game missing from my favorite game compilations on Wii was Bit.Trip Complete.  I hadn’t gotten around to buying it yet, and I wasn’t sure if I should get the Wii or 3DS version.  After several people commented and recommended I get the Wii collection, I finally broke down and bought it a few months ago when I saw it on sale.  So in honor of the recently released Bit.Trip Runner 2 (which I will have a GamerDad.com review posted on that in a couple of days, so watch for it), here is a short run-through of the games found on Bit.Trip Complete for the Wii.

Hi my name is Cary and since this is my first blog on this site, I figure I’d start with a bit of an introduction.  First and foremost, it should go without saying that ever since I put a quarter in a Pac-Man arcade machine back in the early 80’s, I’ve enjoyed playing video games ever since.  I think the one thing I enjoy more than playing video games is writing about them, so I’ve been reviewing games for various print and web sites for the past 15 or so years.
