This week’s column is dealing with a topic that everyone is currently being exposed to thanks to our position as being in the middle of holiday release season. The sheer amount of hype being pushed by PR representatives, by avid fans of the games, or just the word of mouth passed from one gamer to another is enough to flush any thought of anything but upcoming releases out of my mind.

If any of you have lived in Colorado, you should know that there is an interesting mix of military and hippie culture going on in this state. One only needs to visit Boulder and Colorado Springs in the same day to get a taste of the difference. It doesn’t surprise me that Coloradans were excited
Ah, the joys of November: not just food and family, but cosplay and comic book conventions. The crew from Comic Issues made a trip to cover ComiKaze’s debut expo.
