    Jimquisition: The Adblock Episode

    Breaking my self-imposed Escapist ban to comment on this (saw article on techdirt - Nice going getting on the wrong side of history that badly) There are any number of ways to support yourselves and your content - Obnoxious and frequently broken advertisements do nothing but drive people...

    Skylanders: Swap Force Toys Defeat Magnets with Science

    ...Because apparently nobody remembers how to use those old U-shaped magnets that form a complete loop when two are connected, thereby constraining nearly all of the magnetic field inside the magnets themselves? I get the feeling that whatever "patent" Activision puts out is going to be...

    Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time Coming Next Month

    What. The. HELL. I didn't think it was possible for my love of PopCap to turn into disdain and hatred quite that quickly.

    Hating Multiplayer Creep

    Perhaps an unfortunate choice for a stand-alone sentence. That being said... Yes SIR!

    Feed Dump: Free Speech Tattoos

    I was thinking it looked like a Koopa shell w/ braids.

    Problems With The Sandbox

    Vice City sort of approached the whole "demand we buy a car so we can get into the next mission" thing. The "major" properties all had missions associated with them (from races to car-jacking to robbing a bank to... you get the idea). Hell, the final story mission (which, btw, is the bad guys...

    The Best and Worst of Magic 2013

    Also: Keldon Marauders synergizes pretty well with Worldflame

    The Best and Worst of Magic 2013

    Initial thoughts for Worldfire: Oblivion ring (or Journey to Nowhere) out a Hellfire Mongrel (my personal favorite...). Kills each opponent on their upkeep. Tims are also good against single opponents. Use Vedalken Orrery to cast it in response to your choice of any damaging spell or...

    New Super Mario Bros. 2 Ditching Wii for 3DS

    Unfortunately, Greg has a bit of a history of twisting facts in order to support conclusions. Which is a large part of the reason I no longer have a publisher club membership... Somehow, I doubt this article will ever see a correction or retraction. Which sorta flies in the face of the...

    New Super Mario Bros. 2 Ditching Wii for 3DS

    Sorry, but I don't think this is accurate. The game New Super Mario Bros. was a game for the original DS released in 2006. The Wii version, New Super Mario Bros. Wii was released in 2009 but isn't the reboot you seem to think it is.

    Feed Dump: Bacon Coffin

    I have to say, I did NOT expect to see that hat, on this show, ever. Although I sorta qualify as a source of (Biased and bad) news and do have a hat of that ilk.

    Avacyn Unveiled

    One more bit of note is that I'm fairly certain it will be a land that cannot tap for mana.

    Feed Dump: A Butte Man

    Was I alone in thinking "murloc hat" there?

    Zero Punctuation: Super Mario 3D Land & Rayman Origins

    Nailguns to the shins? Surely you meant arrows to the knee? (I'm sorry. I'm truly sorry. I am a horrible person)

    Lawyer Destroys Arguments for Game Piracy

    Or I understand it. And believe it's total fucking bullshit that Disney still owns the rights to or makes money from anything prior to 1985. Or I understand that Content Distributors (such as the RIAA) don't have any right to attempt to prevent new distribution models being created that...
