    Are Games Losing My Interest, or Is it Just Me?

    Game Theory: The Metroid Morph Ball is Lame!

    Former Duke Nukem Teaser Site Reveals Bombshell

    So they had to come up with a new character fast when they lost Duke and the best they could come up with was "Girl with a metal arm". The sad thing is that already makes her more of an interesting character than Duke.

    8 Videogame Anti-Heroes You Can't Help But Love

    okay I'm not the first or 5th person to say it but please look up the definition of an anti-hero. Its a central, or main, character that lacks heroic qualities. Half your list doesn't apply. badass does not equal anti hero. Example. Blade is a badass, not an anti-hero. he tends to do...

    Americans' Beer Preferences Are Mapped via Twitter

    and this just confirms what I already knew. if you give people watered down piss and tell them its high quality beer for a low price and throw in the word America a few times, they will gladly drink it. As for wine? I don't drink much of it outside of mead and sake (which are considered wine...

    Movie Defense Force: Batman & Robin

    oh god i'm trying to see your point on this one Jim. I like Movie Defense force and I typically agree with a lot of your points. I'm the kinda guy that can enjoy a bad movie. I love camp like the story of Riki-oh and I thought Freddy vs Jason was the best Comedy of 2003. But I can't get...

    Why We Should Stop Caring About the Zombie Apocalypse

    Why Can't Comedy Games be Funny to Play?

    Beyond Good and Evil. It takes place on an alien world that is an odd ball collection of things. The architecture looks Mediterranean yet there is a heavy Asian undertone to the world, almost like a light hearted version of Blade Runner. The people are a mix of not just cultures but species...
