    As a fan of Canadian music, and of independent artists, I always make a point of revisiting old favourites. With David Myles, I was a steadfast fan from the start. Over his career, he has released a series of steadily-improving albums that all represented his talents and style well. This is why I found his most recent album so disappointing.

  • A little late to the game: examining the Nintendo 3DS

    By October 23, 2011

    It took me over half a year to finally succumb to Nintendo’s spell and buy a Nintendo 3DS. It was a wise decision.

    The Nintendo 3DS was released on March 27 of this year and is the latest in Nintendo’s long line of handheld gaming devices. This honoured tradition started back in 1989 with the Game Boy and has gone through varied iterations over the years such as the Game Boy Color in 1998, the Game Boy Advance in 2001 and the DS in 2004.

    It all starts with one touch, one sneeze, one cough — and one fatality can become 30 million.

  • Season Two of zombie epic The Walking Dead is still tense, visceral entertainment

    By October 20, 2011

    The Center for Disease Control is gone, hope is elusive and zombies are still everywhere.

    AMC’s zombie hit The Walking Dead returned on Oct. 16 to an ecstatic 7.3 million viewers and Season Two starts just where Season One left off. The band of survivors headed by Sheriff’s Deputy Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) is still there, although their numbers are thinned out from the final episodes of last season, hoping against hope that things can get better and they find some vestige of safety.

  • Multidisciplinary Art Project The Great Mystery brings spirit of Burning Man to Saskatoon

    By October 19, 2011

    I just went to write a review.

    Some time later I was lying on the floor in a dark room. Only black light. Above, dancers whirled neon-laced hula-hoops and fiberoptic rainbow wands. They wore tight black suits with fringy neon epaulettes.

  • id Software’s new shooter Rage plays it safe

    By October 15, 2011

    Post-apocalyptic games seem to have reached their peak in popularity recently with games such as Fallout 3 and Borderlands. Now another post-apocalyptic shooter, Rage, enters the arena desperately trying to differentiate itself from the rest. How does it do that? Well, by doing almost nothing new at all.

    Rage is the newest shooter from veteran developer id Software, known for classic games like Doom and Quake.
