Happy Weather Predicting Rodent Day

Happy Weather Predicting Rodent Day

So, it’s the 2nd of February already eh? Another year, another chance for a bunch of pagentry assholes to cart out a groundhog in front of a crowd of thousands and pretend that the little bastard can predict what we’re up against when it comes to mother nature. If you can’t tell, I’m delightfully jaded.

The Lich King…is Dead

I’ll never play this game, and I’ll certainly never hit the levels that would be needed to see this cinematic. But for all of you other WoW fans, here’s the ending of the Lich King.

If you’re one of the masses who can’t wait to get their hands on the next installment of Command & Conquer, then your prayers might be answered in the form of a multiplayer beta that EA will be giving THOUSANDS of keys away pretty soon. However, there is one little catch.

Heavy Rain Footage Leaked on YouTube

Heavy Rain Footage Leaked on YouTube

Sometimes I feel like I’m one of the few remaining gaming journo who still cares about this games like this. There are far too many people dismissing it as this generation’s Shenmue, but that’s ok…I liked Shenmue. From watching this footage of the game in action, I’m even more excited to pick this game up […]

New Halo: Reach Screenshots

New Halo: Reach Screenshots

Considering I’ve already posted the concept art for Halo: Reach this week, me posting even more screenshots for this game should be a sign to all of you of how excited I am for this game’s release. Bungie has been really awesome and forthcoming with tons of screen grabs from the in-game engine…and they’re effin’ […]

Your First Look at Vanquish

Your First Look at Vanquish

Details are pretty thin right now, but Vanquish is the child of Shinji Mikami, the creator behind Resident Evil series. It takes place in a somewhat futuristic Earth and it involves a guy in a powered suit (ala Iron Man) kicking ass for the good ol’ US of A.

Morning Cup o’ Music

Man, the Deftones have come a long way in a relatively short time. If you listened to their first albums, Adrenaline/Around The Fur, and compared it to their more recent work like their Self-Titled/Saturday Night Wrist albums, you can easily see that Chino has grown as a vocalist. Their early stuff was awesome but still […]

Zelda, Don’t Go Into The Light!!!

If you were alive in the 80s then I’m sure you’ve seen at least one iteration of the Poltergeist movies since your birth. If you remember the psychic lady from the first movie who urged Carol Anne “Don’t go into the light!” then you might be a little saddened to learn that Zelda Rubenstein shuffled […]

The Trekker *GASP* Heard ‘Round the World

The Trekker *GASP* Heard ‘Round the World

No, it’s not a joke about how most of us Sci-Fi fans tend to have a little bit more dough around the midsection, which sometimes makes breathing strained because of the same weight pushing down on our lungs and spreading our rib-cages…It’s about the apparent controversy that stirred for about a half hour as Zachary […]

God of War III Dated

God of War III Dated

Psst, in case you were wondering, Kratos will be set loose on March 16. That’s right, God of War III is going to be dropped onto the PS3 platform in mid-march. If you’re one of the millions of fence sitters when it comes to getting a PS3, this should help tip towards the “buy” impulse. […]

My Third Helping of Avatar

My Third Helping of Avatar

This weekend, I actually plan on going to see a Avatar (the Cameron flick) in the theatre for a third time. I can’t even tell you how many other movies that I’ve ever seen 3 times in the theatre, because I honestly think this is the first time I’ve done something like this in my […]
