Midway Games

for something that they believe in or that they thought was right. Personally, I hate to admit that I am wrong, even if midway through an argument I realize that I am clearly wrong. However, there is one particular case that many of my friends tease me about and that is the accusation of my favorite football team the New England Patriots cheating in the 2014 AFC Championship game. I constantly stand up for the Patriots because they have been my favorite team since I was in the second grade and I…

In 2010, the video game developer, Playdead, released a puzzle game titled Limbo. Limbo includes a unique setting, characterized by its black and white color scheme peppered with unknown items and nasty traps. The main character, a boy-like figure silhouetted like all the others, must traverse this terrain in angst, worried about the state of his sister. The setting of this game in particular hints to the true meaning of its plot, even though the game includes no narration, as the character’s…

He showed up at 9:00 because he thought that we would be rally early, he was right, we got there at around 9:30. THe first game was at 10:00 but Gamepod did not start the game till 10:45.

We took all our gear into…

all that we know is that Nathan’s The League in Review was right. Figuring out which teams get a spot in the postseason will be difficult, because after this past week’s match-ups, the gap between teams #2-#10 is a measly two games, and the gap between teams #6-#10 is at one game. It was a tough week overall for the teams in the Douchebag division as the top four teams in the division finished winless this past week. On the other hand, the Nice Guys finished 4-1. The bottom four teams, Dez, Ike,…

Today is the big game, as I’m sitting in class thinking how important this game is to the whole school. Even though I was not going to play because I’m the backup goalkeeper I was still excited to be part of the team. This is my senior year and I hoped to have memorable moments. “Let’s all support the boys and girls soccer team in today’s game versus Leuzinger at 7 o clock. Go Cougars!” The principle, Mr. Newell seem extremely excited over the announcements for tonight’s game against our…

In my life, nothing has taught me more about life than the game of baseball. When you play a game that is about winning and losing since early childhood, you will be able to handle the winning and losing of life a lot easier. Losing always make players dream of what it would be like to win a championship and be the best at there game. I experienced the ups and down’s of this game all to well, and wouldn’t be that person I am today without it. In my first year of kindergarten, I played league…

nothing too serious these days, not that many people playing. I have to shoot on every hoop for the different feels of the rims, using it as a way to get my mind off of being nervous about the college life. I did that every day until Saturday: the game changer. That morning of walking into the gym around 10am there were so many people in the gym. On the left side, it felt as if every machine was being used and I realized for the first time there was a second floor of machines also being…
