There’s always something cool about playing a virtual representation of your hometown. This is especially the case when you’re from a major metropolitan area such as New York or Los Angeles as they are both commonplace locations for games. In fact, the most recent game I can think of that allows you to explore Chicago is Driver 2, and that was 14 years ago. However, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a game that properly represents Chicago. Well I’m glad to say that this is no longer the case as Watch_Dogs, has finally hit store shelves.

Monster Monpiece Review

Second Opinion by Omar (@siegarettes)

  • Monster Monpiece
  • Developer - Compile Heart
  • Publisher - Idea Factory
  • Sony PlayStation Vita
  • Rating - M 

At the end of the generation when Sony finally pulls the curtain for the PS Vita, the library of Sony’s fledgling handheld will be known for 3 things. Monster Hunter clones, indies and Monster Monpiece. Monster Monpiece (MonMon) is a very unique game. With fanservice that could offend many and a somewhat annoying leveling system a person would rightfully expect little out of this game. But as the old “peeling the onion” metaphor goes, there might be something beautiful beneath all of this.

And our ashes will fly, in the aeroplane over the sea.

By: RJ (@rga_02) a)

I’m going to take a break from taking about video games for a moment and discuss a favorite album of mine. It’s not the most popular album out there. Yet, it’s also not the most obscure. It’s the center of various internet jokes, and certain people will label it as “plebian baby’s first indie album”. But despite all of the mixed reactions to this album, it’s one of the few albums, where I can always go back and have a listen. And that album is, In the Aeroplane of the Sea (ITAOTS) by Neutral Milk Hotel. Now I’m not going to review this album tracks after tracks, but I will lay down my thoughts and personal anecdotes, one carrot flower at a time.

Upside Down Mountain (Conor Oberst) - Review

 

image

By Kevin (@prufesuroak)

“Upside Down Mountain” is the new album Conor Oberst officially released May 19, 2014, has that sound that Oberst is known for, that jangle pop with 60’s folk revival Laurel Canyon sound (think Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Bob Dylan’s electric days or perhaps Jackson Browne or The Eagles); that mid 90’s Nebraskan sound that Oberst is known for.

Everyday Robots (Damon Albarn) - Review

image

By Prufesuroak (Kevin)

It seems as though we think that we have seen everything that Damon Albarn can do, but this will erases all that preconception. This is unlike the “Blur” stuff, the “Gorillaz” stuff and his “The Good, the Bad and the Queen” stuff. This takes parts of all of those periods of his career and then some, then fusing them into one album.

Final Fantasy VII Remake: Should it happen?

By: Dave (@djdmob)

Yea, this wasn’t supposed to be my next article. My next article was to be about fanboys but I deleted the draft because I didn’t like how it was and I wanted to retype it. So, I decided that this would be my next article and will probably be the biggest article I will ever type on clickbliss. With that said, enjoy!
