CMU 260 | Digital Storytelling | 2024 | Sagrado
Metroid as a series is quite the oddity. Oh, of course, when talking about the big Nintendo “Franchises” people will mention your Marios and Zeldas and just sorta lump Metroid in there, even though the series’ commercial legacy pales in comparison to both older and newer Nintendo franchises. So how does it survive? For a […]
Hello! While we might be looking forward to whatever 2024 has to offer, it’s also important to recognize and appreciate the past. In particular, 2023 was a HUGE year for game releases, in a way that we rarely see. That is to say, there was a LOT of good games released. That’s why today I […]
So the other day I played Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered. This is one of many Playstation exclusive games Sony is pushing out to PC to reach a wider audience, and so far, I’m all for it. Like many people, I initially saw this game revealed way back in E3 2016. It aimed to be the definitive […]
During class we were tasked with sharing our favorite films/series with all of you. It could be any film/series we wanted, though the catch was we would share personal gifs we created to demonstrate them. So here are two of my picks—one film, one series. The Emperor’s New Groove The Emperor’s New Groove is one […]
So the other day I played Resident Evil 4 Remake. Resident Evil 4 Remake is the continuation of a recent trend in not only the Resident Evil series, but gaming as a whole—Revisiting old games. Remakes as a concept aren’t new and they can be dated back all the way to 1993 when Nintendo popularized […]
Hey there! Before I publish my next post I wanted to share with you something I’ve been working on. In the class we were asked to interview one of our classmates, record it, and share it will all of you! That means that the following audio you’ll be hearing is from me (Adrian) interviewing a […]
So the other day I played Splatoon 3’s new DLC—Side Order. It’s a new take on the traditional Splatoon single player experience established in the previous two entries, this time functioning like a full-on rougelike (or rougelite, but let’s not get into semantics -_-). In my experience, I haven’t tackled too many rougelikes; Enter The […]
Hello! It’s been awhile! (Don’t worry the first official blog post will be here VERY soon). For now, I’ll be giving out a brief summary for the class that took place on February 21st, 2024. It was an introductory class to one of the key elements that we’ll be doing throughout the semester—podcasts! Every few […]
Cover by m3u3 on mumumu Hi again! My name is Adrian, I’m 19 years old currently studying in my second year at la Universidad Sagrado Corazón. I’m majoring in Computer Science for a few reasons, but mainly because I see it as something that, going forward, I feel we should all at least have a […]
Hello! This is Adrian writing from Universidad Sagrado Corazón de Puerto Rico. This is a blog I’m creating for a class called “Digital Storytelling—CMU 260?. Now, I would write in Spanish, but for the sake of reaching a larger crowd, I’ve chosen to write in English. I’m bilingual, don’t worry. The purpose of the blog—aside […]
