September 20, 2013September 24, 2013 Gray Areas

I can say with absolute certainty that this dragon is going to be super friendly to us right now. No chance whatsoever that he burns us all to death. The main crew for Game Ons — Chris, Shaun, Jason and … Continue reading Game On: D&D: Shadow Over Mystara (5/5)

September 19, 2013September 23, 2013 Gray Areas

This staircase seems to extend into perpetuity. Maybe all the way to heaven? No, that joke’s too obvious. Let’s not go there. The main crew for Game Ons — Chris, Shaun, Jason and Tech Guy — unite for the last … Continue reading Game On: D&D: Shadow Over Mystara (4/5)

We’re taking a nap in the Forest of Destruction. This nap wasn’t voluntary — we had a spell cast on us. Well, I’m sure nothing will go wrong! The main crew for Game Ons — Chris, Shaun, Jason and Tech … Continue reading Game On: D&D: Shadow Over Mystara (3/5)

September 17, 2013September 19, 2013 Gray Areas

Truth is in the mouth of the beholder. That’s what Tech Guy is learning right at this moment. Oh, except replace “truth” with “death.” The main crew for Game Ons — Chris, Shaun, Jason and Tech Guy — unite for … Continue reading Game On: D&D: Shadow Over Mystara (2/5)

September 16, 2013September 18, 2013 Gray Areas

The War Machine takes no prisoners. All it wants is to burn down this village and then get spinners on its wheels. THAT’S WHY WE MUST WIN. The main crew for Game Ons — Chris, Shaun, Jason and Tech Guy … Continue reading Game On: D&D: Shadow Over Mystara

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)

Tales of Xillia: Customization Matters

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

Tales of Xillia is Out! (Or, Christmas Comes Early)

August 5, 2013August 9, 2013 Chris

Tonight at midnight, I’ll finally get my hands on Tales of Xillia. If you’ve read any of my Tales articles in the past on this site, you know this is a pretty big deal for me. Tales games are few … Continue reading Tales of Xillia is Out! (Or, Christmas Comes Early)

Checkpoint: Castle Crashers

June 8, 2013June 12, 2013 Gray Areas

This column originally ran on April 6, 2010. In 2008, the makers of Alien Hominid brought a four-player frenzied experience to the Xbox 360. Castle Crashers didn’t get a huge marketing campaign, but word quickly spread about the title and … Continue reading Checkpoint: Castle Crashers

Review From a Gaming Expert: Dead or Alive 5

November 2, 2012November 9, 2012 Shaun

Dead or Alive 5 Review: Fun Trumps Technicality This review, you might have noticed, is a bit late. I apologize. When you call yourself a “gaming expert,” the onus is on you to master every facet of the game you’re … Continue reading Review From a Gaming Expert: Dead or Alive 5

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.
