    Zero Punctuation: Horizon Zero Dawn

    I really need to stop watching this show at dinner time. Or maybe I just need to make something less damaging than curry so that I don't hork spice up my nose.

    Nintendo Switch Cartridges Taste Bad on Purpose

    Nintendo, this is not going to work the way you think it will; you have inadvertently created the next Cinnamon Challenge - and I guarantee that you won't want to trademark the phrase "Take the Nintendo Switch Challenge" like you did "It's On Like Donkey Kong." Actually, wait, somebody get that...

    The PC Gaming Hardware Market Did More than $30 Billion in Sales in 2016

    I remember back about a decade ago when I first started following gaming news regularly: "PC gaming is dying" was the narrative that everybody had accepted, and a lot of business practices suggested as such. Always online DRM was beginning to rear its ugly head, there were issues with new...

    The Free NES/SNES Game You Get With Switch Online Only Valid For One Month

    Woof, not looking good right out of the gate for Nintendo. At least with PS+ and XBLG there's some trade-offs to keep them balanced, but the Switch service looks to be strictly worse. Now, they could CHANGE that and course correct like Microsoft has been doing, but wishful thinking...

    I wonder if Michael Lund ever got that postcard from Jupiter?

    Tetris Movie Starts Shooting Next Year

    Larry Kasanoff... look, maybe Mortal Kombat is a more relevant movie regarding credentials for a video game movie, but it's also worth noting that this is the man who brought us FOODFIGHT. Sweet merciful crap, I can't even handle this.

    GameStop CEO: "Wii U Was Disappointing Everyone, Including Nintendo"

    I would honestly put the Wii U up as one of my favourite consoles ever. It didn't have the same games as the PS4 or XB1, but that's fine. It offered a different selection and that selection is strong. As far as gen 8 consoles go, the Wii U is the only one that I feel doesn't disappoint. The...

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

    I've never really thought about it, though I can pinpoint exactly when it was that I really started listening to other things when I game: 2008, when I played Assassin's Creed II for the first time and thought, "I'm enjoying this so much, I want to complete it 100%!" I would put on stand-up...

    Judging By The Cover: Judging The Beatles White Album

    Took a break from writing final papers to watch this. That was a mistake I think.

    Judging By The Cover: Judging Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

    What bugs me about this Batman is that I can tell it's Ben Affleck. Like, I know with Superman you have to accept that no one recognizes him as Clark Kent, but Batman in costume almost never looks like he's obviously Bruce Wayne in a mask. The only other time I can think of was when Clooney...

    Parody Boy Band of Video Game Bosses Releases Debut Album

    The Completionist, his Super Beard Bro Alex, Satchbag's Goods, Nate Wants to Battle, and Virt started a boy band. If there weren't links and a video I would call bullshit.

    Judging By The Cover: Judging Star Wars: The Force Awakens

    "Chewbacca has finally had enough of C-3PO's shit." It was at this point I promptly lost my shit. I love this show.

    Video Game Voice Actors May Go On Strike

    Voice actors make shit pay from what I understand. If this supposed billion dollar industry isn't giving people their fair due, no matter what profession, it can rot for all I care.
