The suit was ugly!

Read 'The suit was ugly!'

And by suit, I of course mean site. This redesign has been in the works for the last few weeks, but was mostly provoked by a slightly inebriated attempt at redesigning the forum. It was then that I realized that...

To play, or not to play - you tell me.

Read 'To play, or not to play - you tell me.'

Out of what can only be called a severe case of masochism, I Gamefly'ed Scrapland some time ago, and until recently it just collected dust while I played Psychonauts and toiled away on work. So on Friday, I was too...

Flashback

Read 'Flashback'

It's been a very, very busy week. I've been working on some site changes, some stupid, some necessary, some I should have done a while ago. One of these updated features you'll find in this week's update: the Game On...

Game On Image Gallery

Read 'Game On Image Gallery'

Over 100 images of Chicago's Game On exhibit, including color commentary. If you can't fly here and walk through the exhibit with me, it's the next best thing to going to your retro-gaming collector friend's house.

Hey Ruti, Happy Birthday!

Read 'Hey Ruti, Happy Birthday!'

I miss people calling me Ruti. :( That time rolls around again and this birthday finds me trapped in the morbid limbo between legal alcohol and reduced car insurance. Fie on you meaningless 23! Anyway, my final project film premiered...

The Game Writers.

Read 'The Game Writers.'

Well, that's one article cleaned out of the closet. The Game Makers review is an article I've been kicking around for approximately the past two months, and it probably shows. I'm just glad it's all wrapped up, for better or...

The Game Makers: The Story of Parker Brothers from Tiddledy Winks to Trivial Pursuit (Literature)

Read 'The Game Makers: The Story of Parker Brothers from Tiddledy Winks to Trivial Pursuit (Literature)'

There are more to games than Pong, the images flickering on your tv and your electronic handheld. What better company to study and learn from than the reverent institution of Parker Brothers?

You are all urban psychic soldiers.

Read 'You are all urban psychic soldiers.'

Thanks to the amazing cognitive reminding abilities of Mr. LeFeuvre, I joined in the psychic battle currently warring over at Psychoportals.com. Unlike some current marketing games (god forbid it is an actual authorized, Microsoft sanctioned publicity stunt for the Xbox...

Alien Hominid (GCN)

Read 'Alien Hominid (GCN)'

There's something missing from my controller. Where did my Turbo button go? My thumb is growing tired. In fact, my whole hand is kind of cramping up. Stupid Wavebird. But it's so freeing! No more dragging consoles across the carpet so I can game on my couch! But still, where exactly did my damn Turbo button go?

Am I up too late or...

Read 'Am I up too late or...'

So people are getting up in arms about a supposed new ARG (alternate reality games - think www.ilovebees.com, the viral marketing campaign that got thousands of people to flock around payphones to unlock info about Halo 2) that rewards "players" with photos from the next-gen Xbox...

Clump of Bricks

Read 'Clump of Bricks'

So the benefit of having tons of LEGO is that when you get an idea you can roll with it.

Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door

Read 'Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door'

All filler and no substance makes for a dispiriting experience.

Data Destruction Tour Remarks

Read 'Data Destruction Tour Remarks'

This has been a long time coming, but hopefully this write-up will make all those souls that skipped the tour regret their lazy actions!

Or just download some tracks from the respective artists. Either/or is fine by me.

I hate life.

Read 'I hate life.'

I guess I was gonna start doing the weekly journal here since I moved "Mr. Newstyle VG Remix Guy" to fan-service. But this week Basswolf died. So I'm going to force you to join me in my grief by reading...

Devil May Cry 3

Read 'Devil May Cry 3'

Devil May Cry 3 weaves a delightful tale of lust and lascivious despair entirely without the aid of honey mustard, which is unfortunate. Come with me as we explore its world. We'll try to perservere, despite the curious absence of both salted and unsalted lunch meat.
