Cardinals new defensive unit continues to prove successful

Ball State Football faced a heavy task today in taking on No. 8 Notre Dame. Not only was this the first time both teams have met, but this is the first time in three season that the Cardinals have faced a ranked opponent. While the score may have not favored the Cardinals, the team was able to limit one of the top offenses in college football for the majority of the game.

‘The Messenger’ delivers platforming greatness

 ‘The Messenger’ is an absolutely incredible platformer. It utilizes both  styles of retro platformers, with linear ‘Ninja Gaiden’-esque stages at  first, and then ‘Super Metroid’-esque exploration later in the game.  This, along with tons of different movement tools, creates a fast-paced  and satisfying platforming system. Combine that with an interesting  narrative that justifies the existence of both styles of game in one,  and the game really is a new peak for the genre. ‘The Messenger’ might  even be better than ‘Shovel Knight,’ taking the crown as the  modern-retro platforming king.

Embracing femininity with ‘Splatoon 2’

A few months ago, when researching gender norms in clothing, I discovered we tend to value feminine qualities less than masculine ones. We are much more accepting of girls, for instance, who wear “boy shorts” or blazers than we are of boys who wear leggings or crop tops. Since social progress is important to me, I think we need to value both our feminine and masculine sides equally. Oddly enough, a video game from Nintendo provides inspiration.
