Lame
Worst. Christmas. Ev–, Well, You Know.
Friday, November 30th, 2007If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
Since tomorrow’s December 1st, and the Christmas blitz started about a minute after the Thanksgiving turkey was carved, I dug up an old relic to make everyone feel better about their holidays. Watch the commercial above. Can […]
PS3 Reaches Critical Milestone - Outsells GameBoy Advance
Friday, June 15th, 2007Sony executives must be breathing sighs of relief — the sales numbers for May are in, and are painting a much prettier picture for the PS3 than we’ve been accustomed to seeing.
After a bit of a rough patch, during the month of May, the PS3 has outsold the GameBoy Advance. Not only […]
Movie-Based Video Games Are Always A Good Idea
Sunday, June 3rd, 2007I can understand the appeal of making video games based on movies, and vice versa. But, that doesn’t mean that it is always a good idea — it rarely is. Even worse, consumers don’t seem to notice or care. I, for the life of me, can’t understand how crap like Pixar’s Cars […]
Protect Your TV From Morons
Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007I’m still confused as to what kind of idiot can’t keep their hands on their Wiimote, but if you’re one of those morons, then the LCD TV Safety Shield is the product for you. No longer will you have to worry about practicing any kind of self control, or an errant Wiimote knocking […]
Quest for an Xbox 360 Elite!
Monday, May 21st, 2007I have been trying to find an Xbox 360 Elite for the past few days and have been completely unsuccessful. All of the usual websites (Best Buy, Circuit City, Target, etc.) are sold out. The local stores don’t have any either.
I have also gotten amazing information from some of the local Gamestop/EBGames employees. […]
Halo: Cuteness Evolved
Friday, May 18th, 2007This is just wrong, but so awesome. After hearing Shigeru Miyamoto tell people that he could make Halo, but chooses not to, the guys over at Team Xbox decided to examine what the outcome might possibly be if Miyamoto really did make Halo. As if the pictures weren’t already disturbing enough, they went […]
Halo 3 Beta Problems
Friday, May 18th, 2007Yesterday was a bad day for those waiting to play the Halo 3 Beta. Owners of Crackdown were unable to access the download as promised and were forced to wait hours (HOURS!) before they were able to begin their download. One Digg user was quoted as saying, “Don’t ******* tell me to ******* […]
Jack Thompson is Logical
Thursday, May 17th, 2007After attacking the evil gaming industry directly, Jack Thompson has chosen his next opponent, and a new direction. He may be on to something this time, having chosen a foe that everyone can hate. Who, you might ask? None other than those ungodly, depraved, despicable, child-hating bastards at Wendy’s.
That’s right. Wendy’s. […]
Michael Bay To Ruin Video Games Next
Thursday, May 17th, 2007It’s being reported that Michael Bay wants to dive into video games by creating some sort of FPS, according to the LA Times. Which I guess makes sense, since the dude’s been turning movies into unplayable video games for years. But do we really need a first person shooter with that “Michael Bay sensibility?” And […]
Gaming Gadget For The LARP’er In All Of Us
Monday, May 14th, 2007Admit it, you’re tired of taping your wii-mote and nunchuck attachment to that plastic power ranger sword and frisbee, just so you can feel a little bit more like Link while playing Zelda.
Or maybe you just need more inspiration. I’m actually not even sure what that means when related to playing Wii, […]
Dear Spike TV VGA’s, I Hate You
Wednesday, December 13th, 2006Another year has come and gone, and I am still amazed at just how dumbed-down Spike TV makes their VGA shows. Who the hell produces these shows anyway? I have a hunch it might be the same crew who helped Sony develop their viral marketing campaign. I can just hear the higher […]
Virtual Scavenger Hunts Are Not Fun
Thursday, August 3rd, 2006I have a message for game developers: collecting things in video games isn’t fun. Yeah, it’s an easy way to take up space in a video game, similar to those crappy filler songs you find on most music albums, but enough is enough. I was reminded of all this when I came across […]
