Video Game Review - Amnesia: The Dark Descent

Amnesia: The Dark Descent is one of the most terrifying games I’ve ever played. Amnesia’s a well put together puzzle adventure game designed solely for making your heart race.

As the player, your character is Daniel, a young man from London who awakes in the castle remembering nothing but his name. He finds a letter from himself warning that he is being chased by a “living nightmare,” and that he must kill Alexander, the baron of the castle.

CJLO Music Pub Quiz at Le Bull Pub

 

Step 1: form a team with your friends and come down the Le Bull Pub Tuesday at 8:30 pm ... Answer questions about music. If you answer more right than any other team in that round you win a pitcher of beer.

Step 2: Lather, rinse, repeat Step 1 two more times ... kind of like shampoo instructions, hey you know what they say about cleanliness being next to Godliness, right? Speaking of Godliness, do you know who got in trouble in 1966 for stating that his band was, "more popular than Jesus"? See how easy it is! (apologies for the awkwardness of that force segue)


Mix By Montreal Resident d'Eon on Haze World

The second hour of Monday's Haze World will feature a mix by Montreal resident d'Eon. His music is difficult to describe, so maybe it's better to cop out and list some of its clearest influences: chanted devotionals, ebm, uk hardcore and jungle, 80s & 90s us r&b and funk, starry-eyed synthesizer jam-outs. It's tinny and plastic but in the best possible way, allowing something deeply personal to seep through the cracks in that saccharine polish.

Video Game Preview - Bloodline Champions

Bloodline Champions is a free-to-play Arena-based PVP game that will seem similar to fans of League of Legends and Defense of The Ancients. What sets this game apart from other games of this genre is the use of WASD keys and a lack of minions. The game makes it easy for a player to choose their play style by separating the different characters into four types: melee, range, tanking, and healers.
