Look. I don’t judge people. However, this doesn’t mean I wouldn’t be able to perform my duties as a highly paid judge on any number of competitive television programs (call me). When I heard that a Japanese man was planning on marrying his virtual girlfriend from the Nintendo DS game Love Plus, I didn’t automatically [...]

Left 16 Dead is too Much

I usually hate it when people mess with a game’s settings in order to add more people. This situation with Left 4 Dead 2 is no exception. Someone hacked the game to allow 16 people to play a cooperative campaign. The results are predictable. I don’t think I’ve ever seen so much friendly fire in [...]

The marketing campaign for Dante’s Inferno has been hit or miss. Do you remember when EA pissed off the entire Internet when they encouraged gamers to molest booth babes? That stunt was morally irresponsible and could have led to time in prison for hordes of sex-crazed nerds. But then EA sent a bunch of journalists [...]

I‘d really have to love a video game studio to get its logo tattooed on my body. The only studio that comes close is Valve, but the Valve logo wouldn’t make a great tattoo. I guess I could just get a big V, but people might get the wrong idea if they see the Richard [...]

I‘ve already burned a lot of electricity this week playing the PC version of Left 4 Dead 2. On the plus side, the heat exhaust from my computer keeps my office pretty warm. If I was more like that guy Alton Brown from that show Good Eats, I’d figure out a way to use the [...]

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is a game I post about a lot on this blog, and it is all your fault. You, Internet. Stop spitting out ridiculous facts, videos, articles, and pictures about Modern Warfare 2, so i can stop writing my barely coherent blogging things about the game. I’d make some kind [...]

I haven’t heard anything about EverQuest II since World of Warcraft started selling copies. In fact, I’m not entirely sure that EverQuest II is still a real game. Are we sure Blizzard didn’t just buy the name “EverQuest II” as a possible subtitle for World of Warcraft? Let’s see how that looks — World of [...]

I don’t know about you, but I’m tired of browsing through downloadable content from the comfort of my couch. It just seems so 2009. Thankfully, in 2010 I’ll be able to browse through DLC at a GameStop store while being asked over ten times if I want to preorder Assassin’s Creed 3: New York Assassin. [...]

Does anyone remember a time before the Internet when if you said you stood for something, you actually stood for that something?  That was nice, wasn’t it? I think that’s how the Boston Tea Party got off the ground. These days, standing for something on the Internet doesn’t really hold that much weight. For example, [...]

It’s Probably Hard to Street Fight in This Snuggie

Being a scrawny weakling on the verge of muscular dystrophy, I don’t know much about hand to hand combat. If I was ever forced to compete in some type of fisticuffs, like if someone was trying to delete all my Pokemon, the combat would most definitely be inside and as far away from the street [...]
