The Dude’s High 5s: Old School RPGs
I feel like I haven’t done a video game themed High 5 in forever. For those of you who are on my XBL friend’s list, you’ve no doubt noticed me delving back into the land of Skyrim. With other games out on the market, what has me constantly going back to the world of the Elder Scrolls? Well, in short, I love RPGs. They have forever been my favorite genre of game to play. So submitted for your approval, I present my favorite old school RPGs.
(Old school will be understood to be games originally released for the SNES/Genesis and previous)

The Dude’s High 5s: TV Cops
Ahh September is upon us. Fall is almost here. Speaking about the Fall, cops ensure crooks take the fall for their crimes. For example, I am guilty of the worst segue of all time.

The Dude’s High 5s: Top 5 Memorable Video Game Boss Fights
There are many things that contributing to a video game being great. The story, the mechanics, the graphics. They all contribute to enhance our experience.

The boss fight is typically a culmination of the skills learned over the course of a level or if it’s the last boss, the game. So here are the 5 boss fights that stand out in my mind as entertaining or memorable.
The Dude’s High 5s: Top 5 80s Hair Band Ballads
Hello loyal OLers. It’s time for another obligatory musical High 5. As I’ve admitted in the past, I know nothing of music despite actually being able to play a few instruments (besides the skin flute). Today we’re looking back at yesteryear towards a magical time known as the ‘80s. It was an amazing time to be alive. MTV played music videos, Saturday mornings were filled with quality cartoons, and Han still shot first. Also our rock was filled with hair. The bad boy image was all the rage. However, beyond that tough exterior our rockers wanted us to know they had feelings and shit. So here we go; my top 5 ballads by ‘80s hair metal bands. [Note: While some of the songs may have been recorded outside of the 80s, the bands themselves existed as hair bands in the 80s]
