They are Still Alive

Ok, I stumbled across this on Twitter. If you are a fan of Rock Band, of Portal, of Jonathan Coulton, or of fun in general, you have to watch this video. It is epic!

The Cake is a Lie

I know the game has been out for a while now, but there are still quite a few people on my friends list still playing. Sure there are many more playing Halo3, but there is enough there to warrant me trying it out as a rental. So, last weekend I popped into the local Blockbuster […]

BioShock: Why A Good Thing Can Be Bad

For those that haven’t heard, BioShock is a new game for the Xbox 360 that was released last week. The game has been tearing up the reviews and has managed to become a major volly in the console wars. I just finished playing the game and have a few things to say about it. Some […]

Update on All-Pro Football 2k8

On Friday, I posted this (click here) blog ranting about a reporter’s article on TheStreet.com. When I got home that night, I decided to re-read the article to make sure I didn’t miss anything. The first thing I noticed was that the article had been updated just a few minutes before. Apparently, someone filled the […]

Since I wasn’t home for the release, I was a day behind […]

2K Sports Football not eactly what was previously reported

In this month’s Game Informer magazine, there was a preview of the 2K Sports football offering that is set to be released later this year. I was a little surprised that the game was going to break completely away from the NFL and instead of turning to one of the other leagues in the world, […]

Finally. There is a date on the table and it is just when most people thought it would be. Unfortunately, the Beta period is rather short itself, but not short enough to deter me from spending as much time as possible playing it. I wonder if I can talk my wife into cancelling our trip […]

R.I.P. Guitar Hero 2

Guitar Hero 2 was just released for the Xbox 360, and the Internet is fired up about it. Most of the individual results are extremely popular, so why are so many saying that the title will soon be obsolute?
In a wonderful ploy for buzz, Harmonix chose the release date of GH2 to announce that […]
