The Forgotten Sands Looks Pretty

Not everything in life is about looks, whatever, whatever. I get that. But when I see a brand spanking new game looking pretty that’s pretty much all I care about. I like the Prince of Persia franchise (and Jake Gyllenhaal) so I’m all aboard the 2010 PoP train. The screenshots of the Forgotten Sands game [...]

The Beatles Rock Band Discount

Holy mother of what?! The Beatles Rock Band Limited Edition bundle for only $159.99? And I won’t shoot my eye out? This is the best. Year. Ever. Not just two days ago I was in my local Best Buy establishment, drooling over the massively overpriced Beatles: Rock Band. The $249.99 price tag deterred me (and [...]

Microsoft Wants Us to Not Get Laid

Ha-ha-ha, okay Microsoft. We get it. Your technology is all advanced and you’re going to do great things with it. Like making us look like even bigger idiots. You think I’m happy, sweating profusely while I try again and again to conquer The One on Expert on an itty bitty plastic guitar? Do you think [...]

Fallout 3 DLC Cheap as Dirt

Post-holiday sales are fantastic, and seeing that this one includes one of my all-time favorite games, I’m psyched. Microsoft is getting all soft and gooey on us and giving out a 50% discount on Fallout 3 DLC. UMMMMM. Kaching.
Fallout 3 isn’t a short RPG and the DLC for this game really accomplishes some extra fleshing [...]

Xbox 360 Kid Overjoyed or Possessed?

There is a fine line between gratitude and batshit crazy: “hey, gee, thanks mom and dad!” and “AAAAAIIIIIIIIEEEEEECCCCCCCHHHHHHH!” The kid in this Christmas morning video obviously opted for the latter.

I love the joy of Christmas , even now as an adult that only receives tube socks, so I gotta cut this kid some slack. But [...]

Mass Effect 2 Cinematic Trailer

I’m not even a huge Mass Effect fan but… I gotta admit there is just something so satisfying about this cinematic trailer. Maybe it’s because it looks so crisp and sounds so good… I’m not sure. But it makes me kind of pee. Plus one of my favorite people ever is in it:
I wish Yvonne [...]

AvP Bundle Scares Me

When I saw Alien as a child, I was scarred for life. Every since I saw the chest buster scene with the spaghetti…. I honestly can’t eat it without thinking about that horrifying situation. Face huggers scare the living daylights outta me and now Aliens Vs. Predator is including one in their bundle? Is this [...]

World at War DLC Bundle

Nothing says the holidays like bundling! And regifting.
But back to the bundles- Activision is compiling all of the World at War maps and DLC crap into one jumbo pack. It’s called the Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack Bundle. (What a mouthful, she said.) In this goodie bag is nine multiplayer maps and [...]

The Infiltrator Combat Class Explored

Look! A Mass Effect 2 rogue! Err, infiltrator. … which is basically the same thing. You can become all invisible boy (or girl) and kick some sneaky ass. It won’t be nearly as versatile as the Sentinel, but at least the Infiltrators aren’t huge pussies that you’ll never choose to play as.
