New on the Secret Area: "Halo with chips" has been found.

A dumb back of the box quote from Maxim magazine promoting a poker video game had become a small meme. I wanted to find out where it came from.

Likes, shares and comments are really appreciated. https://asecretarea.com/2025/02/21/halo-with-chips-found/

Hey, remember when I was talking about wanting a cat fursona?

Well, thanks to a picrew, and a friend who was willing to help, it's now a reality.

Say hi to Tonya! She's soft, cuddly, and friendly!

I made a new post yesterday to cover devolver digital's silly advergame

http://asecretarea.com

almost bought a copy of Mercenaries 2 for Xbox 360 and now that stupid "oh no you didn't" song they made to promote it is in my head now

suffer along with me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCvIw7DMHXc

suddenly remembering the 2000s glut of "television for MEN" stuff (Spike TV, etc) and just realizing how silly that all was

get you a gal who enjoys taking apart shipping boxes to shove into recycling

changed my avatar a bit, this time using a recent selfie through ditherinator

over time I feel more comfortable when my online avatar is not just my face, because I've just been on this world wide web long enough that being semi-anonymous feels more right, tbh

New Secret Area post: It's Soldier of Fortune: Payback.

The gore-filled action shooter franchise gets one more installment. And it feels like a direct-to-video sequel that's only tangentially related to the source material.

Shares and comments appreciated!

I have been slowly chipping away at an article idea I might go with, to keep up with my habit of covering a mediocre-to-bad game in November

I like to call them "video game turkeys" because using turkey to refer to something bad is funny to me
