Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic Podcast November 22, 2014
Posted by Maniac in Podcasts, Site Videos.add a comment
The podcast returns! This week, inspired by the amazing work of Bioware and Lucasarts, Maniac produced an unscripted podcast about the Knights of the Old Republic franchise. This is a franchise many have considered an apology for the prequel trilogy, as the first game in the series alone has been considered by many gamers to be the best Star Wars video game of all time.
Like with most of our podcasts, we’re going to talk about the franchise’s history, our experiences with it, and where we think the franchise is headed next. Enjoy!

It’s been ten years since the release of Halo 2 on the original Xbox, and while a lot has changed in his life since that day, Maniac still looks back on it very fondly.
To continue with our celebration of the release of Halo: The Master Chief Collection on Monday night, Maniac created his own retrospective on Halo 2. He talks about his memories of the game’s E3 showings (which he personally attended), and what it was like standing in line at midnight for one of the first copies of the game. Enjoy.
How to Update Pokemon X and Pokemon Y November 5, 2014
Posted by Maniac in How To, Site Videos.add a comment
A few days ago, Nintendo released the 1.3 update for Pokémon X and Pokémon Y and are now requiring that users have it installed before they can make use of the games’ online features.
Updating games on the Nintendo 3DS isn’t exactly a straightforward process like on most other consoles. Game updates typically need to be downloaded from the Nintendo eShop, which requires an Internet connection and the most recent 3DS firmware already installed to access it.
Once you have all that taken care of, watch the video below to see how to update your game.
Pokémon X and Pokémon Y are out now for the Nintendo 3DS.
