Interview in Charisma+2 Magazine

Posted by Kaitlyn On August 2, 2010

This month's Charisma+2 Magazine includes a rather in-depth interview with... well, me! Charisma+2 is primarily a company that provides talent for videogame-related events and tradeshows. It is, essentially, a modeling agency for booth babes that know a lot about videogames. The concept is fantastic and the execution is great too.

New Panasonic LUMIX Cameras

Posted by Kaitlyn on July 21, 2010

One of the most exciting things about working as a journalist is being "in the know" before everyone else. In the case of DigitalCameraInfo, I get hands-on time with new cameras before they're even announced. Last week I went to New York and met with people from Panasonic, who gave me the goods on these new point-and-shoot cameras for their LUMIX lineup. The LX5 is especially juicy, giving consumers a replacement for that retro chic LX3 from 2008.

Director's Note: Annie, Get Your Gun

Posted by Kaitlyn On May 7, 2010

This was my first time directing where I hadn't actually selected the show myself. Riverside Theatre Works lost their director at the last minute and I was called in to triage. I must admit that this not a show I would have ever selected on my own, but I'm very glad I had the opportunity to direct it. The music of Irving Berlin and the story of Annie Oakley go together surprisingly well.

Ten RPGs That Matter... to Kaitlyn

Posted by Kaitlyn On April 18, 2010

Some people say that female gamers just aren't unique anymore. "Everyone knows that girls game... what's the big deal?" And yet, I find that the majority of guys are still surprised when I tell them I like videogames. They're even more slack-jawed when they learn how much I play and how knowledgeable I am. Even the mere suggestion that I'm good enough to play on a competitive level is just... unbelievable.

Fable II (Xbox 360) Review

On Wednesday, November 12, 2008 0 comments
Another review for Game Positive... and it's not very positive. I was intensely disappointed with Lionhead, since I enjoyed Fable a lot and felt that the sequel had potential. This review would have turned out very differently if the studio had simply published a more polished (and more playable) product.

* * *

Fable II is the highly anticipated sequel to the popular Xbox title from Lionhead Studios and esteemed game designer Peter Molyneux. Unfortunately, it's also the game we hope future developers will remember the next time they think about rushing out a product that isn't quite ready. Fable II is a game that's full of potential: ambitious gameplay, an intriguing storyline, and a sprawling world. On the other hand, it's also full of imperfections such as carelessly designed menus, glitchy quests, and a virtually unplayable online cooperative mode. In essence, Fable II is an artistic, well-intentioned mess.

RCA Small Wonder EZ210 Traveler Review

On Tuesday, November 04, 2008 0 comments
These ultracompact camcorders are all the rage, but RCA is actually one company that was not simply riding on the Flip's coattails. The EZ210 is the next entry in a relatively modest lineup of ultracompacts that have been coming from RCA since 2006.

After putting the EZ210 through our usual rigorous testing procedures, we lent our expertise (and our conclusions) to our friends at The Washington Post.

* * *

RCA's Small Wonder Travel EZ210 is an ultra-compact camcorder in the style of the Flip series from Pure Digital and myriad other clones. These camcorders have a simple raison d'être: enabling you to quickly and easily record video for the internet. The Small Wonder Traveler delivers on this promise with its integrated USB connector and built-in software for uploading straight to YouTube.
