I’m going to be honest with you. I’m a gadget freak. My friends know this. My colleagues know this. I know this. For example, I am one of the assholes who has bought all three Nintendo DS SKU’s on consecutive launch dates. That’s right, despite owning perfectly functional DS phat and lites, I’ve [...]
I’ve been playing around with a new gaming community video content hub/service called GameVee.com. Along with the ability for users to upload and share HD game video content, GameVee has a unique utility called “Grab.” Using a top secret voodoo propietary algorithm/solution, Grab automates the process of capturing video content from games and uploads it [...]
American McGee is best known for his work on DOOM, Quake, and Alice. The latter, which I found to be a deliciously twisted romp through the wonderland of Lewis Carroll. McGee’s past games have earned him an automatic “I gotta check out what he’s doing next” pass. His latest project is entitled American McGee’s Grimm [...]
I gotta admit, Homestar Runner was a huge part of my college days. Every Monday my friends and I would eagerly wait for the latest animated Strong Bad email to be posted so we could watch and quote it for the rest of the week. Though I stopped following the site in recent years, I [...]
Not content with totally mishandling the music industry’s disastrous “transition” into the iPod age, Warner Music CEO, Edgar Bronfman Jr., has started down the path of bungling yet another potential revenue stream. With the recent explosion in popularity (and sales) of Guitar Hero and Rock Band, it was only a matter of time before someone [...]
In case you couldn’t recognize this hip-hop “superstar” (I couldn’t), it’s Twista, Chicago’s very own fast-rhyming MC! It’s slightly baffling to me why EA would would want the first person to have Madden 09 be a rapper who peaked in 2004 (with “Slow Jamz feat. Kanye West and Jamie Foxx”). Maybe he suckled [...]
Wow. Ubisoft’s new trailer for the upcoming Prince of Persia game is absolutely stunning. I was skeptical about the new art direction for the game, but am no longer. Do yourself a favor and watch it in HD. Your life will thank you for it.

The speculation is over. Harmonix and MTV have revealed the final song list for the much anticipated songpack sequel to Rock Band. We knew it was going to have 80+ songs on the disc, but in a slightly surprising twist, rockers will be getting another bonus 20 songs that will be downloadable for free in [...]
2008 Pulitzer Prize winning author of the novel, The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, Junot Diaz, is a Grand Theft Auto fan. He’s played all of them since the first 2d entry into the series and has liked them. But does he think the game is art on the level of The Godfather, as [...]
IGN has an interview with Harmonix’s Lead Designer, Dan Teasdale, on the newly announced Rock Band 2 that will ship in September for the Xbox 360 and later in that year for other platforms.
Mr. Teasdale does an admirable job of answering interview questions without really saying anything of substance. He says that they have been [...]
