I feel bad about ragging on DICE. They are one of the few big developers who seem to appreciate the act of developing a game for the PC. Don’t worry — this doesn’t mean that I’m not going to rag on them, because I am. I just want to make it clear that all of [...]

The Starcraft 2 closed beta test went live last week. Blizzard is conducting the Starcraft 2 beta like every other Blizzard beta by sending out beta invites in waves. This is a process that some eager fans aren’t handling very well.

America’s Army, the free war game put out by the United States Army that’s less popular than games costing money, has racked up a pretty impressive development cost.

Blizzard should send this Adrianne Curry lady something nice in return for all the free advertising she just gave World of Warcraft.

When I was younger, I always dreamed of traveling to Australia to take in the beautiful scenery, dangerous wildlife, and excellent accent.

Finally, an Archie video game. I was starting to lose hope that I would never have the opportunity to play a game that involves running around and collecting objects floating in hearts.

That’s right, Xbox 360 users. The Dante’s Inferno demo hits the PlayStation 3 two whole weeks before it hits the Xbox 360. I think this means that the Xbox 360 is the inferior console.

It’s official — the future is here. This means the robots are one step closer to forcing me to sweep the floors of their micro-chip mansions. I’m going to do such a shitty job. Just wait.
