April Carlson

April has been gaming since her parents brought home the Atari 2600 and has never looked back. She spent many an afternoon playing the Nintendo at a friend's house until finally getting one of her own. Many great memories were formed while playing Super Mario Brothers, The Legend of Zelda, and Castlevania. Gaming took on a whole new level when she met Norm in 2000 and she played The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. In 2001, they purchased a PS2, and from there, it's history.In 2007, April helped form Girls Got Game! then moved on to write for Gaming Angels in 2008. In 2009, Norm and April launched Married With Video Games to share their gaming experiences - individually and as a couple who are truly married with video games.

Review: Dark Souls

Review: Dark Souls

By April Carlson on October 3, 2011

Dark Souls is probably one of the hardest games I’ve had to review. Considered to be the “spiritual successor” to 2009′s Demon’s Souls, Dark Souls may be the hardest game you’ll ever play‚ if you dare. Take the game’s tagline (and its web url), Prepare to Die, to heart because you WILL die and you will die A LOT.
