    Worst situation you've ever been in

    I lost my hotel room at the San Diego Comic Con and was a vagrant for 40 minutes before managing to actually find a hotel right next to the convention center, a place they'd never look. It felt like a decade wandering those streets.

    Who's your fave band?

    Current Fave Bands 1. Does it offend you, yeah? - No serious, that's their name look it up. 2. Deep Purple - Rock Band... 3. Queen - Been there for years, but my taste for their music fluctuates. 4. Guns & Roses/Velvet Revolver - Guns prior to the break up was the shit, Velvet was bad ass...

    Your Pokemon Story!

    It all started with me down in my friends basement playing Bomberman 64. I was screwing around on the game, trying to beat this level and my friend was playing Blue. His squirtle just leveled and he went ballistic. Seeing as how Bomberman was kicking my ass, I decided to inquire as to what the...

    Doomsday! YAY!

    Not to be a kill joy but 18 = nothing new. Seriously, I ploted my 18 birth day and thought everything was change. Day came, nothing besides a few new video game and a Smash Bros. party and some comic books that I got for free. Still, who knows, if your British, you can finally get completely...

    138: If Only Wally West Could Wavedash

    When me and my friend played against one another, I used Roy and he used Ganondorf. We were the types that didn't block, hell we refused to block. In FFA matches we might've been knocked around but our sheer tenacity usually made us the last two players in the game as we didn't back down from...

    Guitar Hero Aerosmith Adds Bands

    Guitar Hero with Neversoft at the helm banked on popularity and Harmonix banked on innovation. Neversoft catered to the expert loving masochists that went berserk on Guitar Hero 2 five staring everything and they made a game that none of them can get a perfect run in (Helllloooo Dragonforce) and...

    Games that have been ruined by their Fans

    Game wise, Final Fantasy 7 holds a place in my mind as the most fan ruined game of all time. It's been over a decade and people are tripping balls over it still. As for fan ruination, yeah Halo 3 got destroyed by whiny people but I'm noticing Rock Band being taken over by the 14 year old high...

    It's 'Affirmative': Red Alert 3 Under Way

    Well, guess it's time to choose. Star Craft 2 or Red Alert 3. It's hard to say which series carved out a larger part of my spare time. Decisions, decisions...

    Devil May Cry 4 Review

    'Ello, DuoM here. Finally pulled myself away from Devil May Cry 4. I'll call this a snap review. Reasons? I haven't beaten it yet but I feel obliged to share my experience with the many other posters here. We'll start with gameplay- It perfects the controls that were seen in Devil May...

    Favorite video game weapon.

    Honestly, I'd have to say the Red Queen is the coolest edition to the hall of awesome weaponry. Nero doesn't play around with that baby.

    133: The Life Nomadic With Nintendo DS

    I have to admit, back in the day it was the big fatty Gameboys that were unbreakable to most kids 8 and older. Then it became pocket sized to hide from the teacher easier. Then it was colorized for us to enjoy a better picture. Sharpened to a tip with more gameplay in the advance Incarnation and...

    Franchises that NEED to DIE, and those that will last forever

    As a gamer, I loathe most if all sports games. The Madden Franchise NEEDS to go. Let some other developers do something with football instead of horde it. I like football as a sport but I'm against buying anything that has EA Sports on it. Still, franchises that need to die... hmm...
