I love a good conspiracy theory as much as the next guy and, as a natural born pessimist, I find myself thinking along the lines of a conspiracy theorist all the time, even if I don’t take the time and effort to make it known. I often suspect malicious plots, intentional sabotage, and corporate rivalry [...]

As gamers, we all have one.  I’m talking about the “stack of shame”… those games we had every intention of beating (or sometimes even just playing) but for whatever reason, we never got around to it.  Frawlz is a good friend of mine; he’s not just a fellow podcast host, but a close friend.  I [...]

Okay everybody, back to your normal routines… apparently this was only a training drill.  As I wrote last week, Brütal Legend was nominated for an award from the Game Critics Awards in four different categories where (in my opinion) it was outclassed at every step.  The winners were announced today it appears I wasn’t off [...]

Disclaimer: This is an editorial piece guys — my opinion.  Everybody’s entitled to an opinion, I realize that, but I’m just FLOORED at this, so give me a moment to make a case and then you can sound off.
Apparently there’s an organization that gets together solely to give out various awards for things shown at [...]

A lot of gamers are lazy.  It’s a stereotype I’m going to roll with for this article, so if you take offense to it… know it’s just a gag.  I’m so lazy, I wrote LPS3HRA instead of Logitech PS3 Harmony Remote Adapter.  That’s a mouthful!  Basically, in a nutshell, this little unit reads infrared remote [...]

We got to see so many things at E3 that it’s taking some decompression time to sort through it all.  Truth N Justice, Harlequin and I got to sit in on an PlayLogic demo of Obscure II: Aftermath for the PSP.  I found the name “Obscure” to be pretty appropriate because I consider myself fairly [...]

As a fan of platforming games, I was really surprised when Sony opted not to show Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack In Time during their press event.  At one point during the Gran Turismo intro, I actually thought “This is it!  Show us the new Ratchet & Clank!” but realized my own anticipation had [...]

I hate gimmicks.  I also have a strong dislike for playing console first person shooters with traditional controllers.  That said, I went into my appointment to see the FragFX V2 with a healthy dose of hesitation.  Due to some interesting interpretations of our meeting schedule (which basically means Doc told me the wrong day for [...]

Nintendo is apparently fed up with companies like Sony copying their motion controllers and decided enough is enough.  As witnessed on the show room floor, Nintendo is taking a page out of the competitor’s book and copying their controllers!  This is a first party Wii controller that will be out in Japan soon.  Yes, you [...]
