About
Tales of a Scorched Earth is a personal weblog devoted to the critique of video games and game culture, but easily integrates other forms of consumable media. Here you will find independent analysis and opinions on video games, comfortably distanced from the industry at large. Updated at least once a month, but more if I'm feeling particularly inspired.

- X-COPS/FPS is about where we gave up on the X-Files when it was on TV, hard evidence that Carter & Co. had run out of ideas. Good grief. 03:39:36 AM February 07, 2012 ReplyRetweetFavorite
