Review: Tales of Xillia (PS3)

August 26, 2013August 30, 2013 Chris

Tales of Xillia is the best title in the entire series. Okay, we’ve gotten the platitudes out of the way early. That’s good. Keep in mind that this is coming from someone who has played everything released in the States … Continue reading Review: Tales of Xillia (PS3)

August 12, 2013August 20, 2013 Chris

The next part of Tales of Xillia’s continuing coverage around these parts is a look at what I consider to be the game’s best feature: customization. I would be complimentary of quite a few of Xillia’s mechanics so far — … Continue reading Tales of Xillia: Customization Matters

Gray Areas

Gray Areas is a pop culture extravaganza with a live weekly podcast every Thursday night, daily Let's Play videos, and a bevy of old blog posts for your enjoyment.

The current crew includes Chris, Dave and Shaun, who have been there since the beginning, and Cody, who joined in 2021. We also have other contributors like Michaela who chip in from time to time.

We cover everything from video games, anime and movies to music, books and idiots in the news.

This whole thing was started as At the Buzzer in February 2011, the brainchild of three men desperate for attention. It became Objection Network in 2017 and then this in 2024. It’s slightly related to an old Flagstaff radio show from 2008, kinda like how Frasier was slightly related to Cheers. In other words, we're all getting old and it's a little depressing.
