  • Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom

    I am watching the Nintendo Direct presentation and there is new Legend of Zelda game coming out in September. Not a remake, not a remaster, but a brand-new game. I can hardly get through the trailer. I am just yelling – when and shut up and take money.

  • Fixing Fallout 4 constant crashing on Xbox

    Both my son and I play Fallout 4 on the same Xbox One S. For years we have been suffering short play sessions caused by the game crashing and being set back hours because of game save files becoming corrupted/obsolete. Well, we finally figured out the problem, and after fixing it we can now play…

  • How to fix msvcp110.dll and msvcr110.dll error in Steam games?

    The msvcp110.dll and msvcr110.dll files are part of the Microsoft Visual C++ redistributable package for programs build in Visual Studio 2012. This package comes as two separate installers – one for 32-bit systems and one for 64-bit systems. In most cases Steam is supposed to check and install or prompt to install these packages, but…

  • Replacing the clock battery in my Nintendo GameCube.

    Replacing the clock battery in my Nintendo GameCube.

    My Nintendo GameCube clock battery was depleted. A hassle, because any electronics which are old, or I am not going to use for extended period of time I keep unplugged. This means I need to set the date and time on the console when I want to use it. I finally decided to replace the…

  • Candle: The Power of the Flame on the Nintendo Switch

    I bought the game Candle: The Power of the Flame for the Nintendo Switch. It is a puzzle platformer. The game itself is beautiful, and while I am still in the beginning, I am enjoying it. My only complaint is that the text size in the speech bubbles is so small I can barely read…

  • Luigi’s Mansion

    Luigi’s Mansion

    I am watching my wife play Luigi’s Mansion and I can’t but not wonder – Is Luigi’s Mention Nintendo’s take on Capcom’s Resident Evil? They are similar – wondering around a mansion, lone hero, ghosts instead of zombies, looking for keys! Nintendo’s version is just more … family friendly.

  • Fallout 76 1st subscription service

    Fallout 76 1st subscription service

    The Fallout 76 private servers are here. It makes me really excited because it offers an opportunity to explore the world firsthand, so to speak. Unfortunately, I am reading reports that server instances are not fresh. I will probably wait to subscribe, or maybe I won’t and just deal with it. 

  • Ghost Recon: Future Soldier

    I was just browsing GameTrailers.com and I saw that a new game from the Ghost Recon series is is coming out later in 2010. It will be called Future Soldier. I am very excited. I’ve been playing Ghost Recon since college. Infrequently, but I still play the game and its various sequels, like GRAW for the Xbox 360. Back…

  • My XBOX 360 is kaput!

    My XBOX 360 is kaput! It’s at the point where it won’t even turn on. Well, it does, but it immediately powers off everything but the Red Ring of Death (RRoD). It sucks. I have been having some issue with the Xbox for some time know. Recently I wrote about how I was experiencing some…

  • XBox 360 no video, only audio

    Over the weekend I had some lack of video from my XBox360. Nothing that some heat couldn’t fix. Apparently most problems with the Xbox360 are fixed by that which kills PCs – heat. I have an XBox360, which is one of those that was born with bugs and “genetic” issue – meaning an early version…
