Portal 2 Announced
Portal is my favorite game of 2007. So many things combined together to make the game great. I really liked how it’s a FPS where you aren’t running around killing everything in sight but instead solving puzzles. That and the amount of character they put into GLaDOS. Well, turns out Portal 2 is on the…

I saw this the other day, bored, looking around at stuff. I thought it was pretty awesome, it brought back a lot of memories…so many radical games. Like, what the fuck kind of last boss is that in Starfox, seriously? At the time I didn’t really think about it, I was too caught up in…

Gordon Freeman on Coast to Coast AM
I love Coast to Coast, I listen to it everyday at work. It’s a radio show where they talk about UFO’s, aliens, bigfoot, government mind control programs…it’s basically X-Files on the radio.

Resident Evil Degeneration Trailer
Yeah, I don’t know what to say really…it’s a CGI Resident Evil movie with, unsurprisingly, zombies. And probably zombies on planes, who knows. The screen was flashing so much I couldn’t really tell what was going on. I guess I’m glad it’s CGI, it won’t have Milla Jovovich in it. Without Milla Jovovich, I won’t…

November Sales Numbers – DS Wins
The NPD group has released their sales numbers for November…so, I guess we should start with the bad news first. The PS2 is still outselling the PS3…embarrassing! To make matters worse, the PSP, PS2, and PS3 sales combined are less then the DS. The good news, the DS sold 1.53 million units and the Wii…

Blizzard “Announces” New MMO
In a recent forum post a Blizzard community representative (Drysc) “confirmed” a new MMO from Blizzard. No, it is an unannounced Next-Gen MMO. And that doesn’t mean an expansion for World of Warcraft either. I’m not sure it’s really an announcement when a community representative mentions it on a web board, but it’s still something.…
