Shit Really? E3 Again… Alright Let’s Start Brewing the Coffee Now.

Well it’s E3 time again, multiple days of starting early and working late. As always we’ll be live blogging the press conferences so be sure to check back at the following times on the following days to share with us the joy of weird PR decisions. Will Mr Caffeine be back to make the world seethe with rage? What crazy new gimmick will be attached the Wii U? Will Microsoft give up on showing games and just focus on social media apps entirely controlled by Kinect? How many things will Sony apologize for this year? What funny thing will Konami say that the internet will run into the ground? And of course we’re taking bets on whether I fall asleep during EA’s inevitable 45 minute sports section. So please come and join me for more fun from the trenches this year, and by trenches I mean my nice cozy office because we’re not exactly rich enough to actually attend E3.

The Top 3 Magnificent Bastards in Videogames.

You know how you can literally smell the fear off of some punk? Look at this guy, and smell all that smug. All of it.

When we think of recent phenomena that have taken the media by storm, it is not hard to see why Game of Thrones on HBO is one of them. Filled with action, powerful fantasy, and intrigue on a dramatic and political level, the show is one of those amazing series which blends darkness and epic visuals together in a powerful way. But we keep watching not just for all that complicated stuff. Oh certainly not. We’re there for the visceral nature of people stabbing each other in the back, and sometimes we mean it literally. Sometimes, those who can do so without even drawing steel can build up the most attention. I personally call them persevering and dedicated by any means necessary. The rest of the Internet-due to their love affair with titles-call them Magnificent Bastards. Read the rest of this entry »

Review of Gas Guzzlers

The racing action of Gas Guzzlers takes place in a setting that’s very close to emulating the real world. All the tracks look like places from our world and some even have real world names. The cars look realistic, taking influence from rather than being copies of real world cars. But the last time I checked there isn’t a racing league where machine guns are strapped to the roof of cars and drivers are encouraged to ram other racers off the road. This semi-real world stops Gas Guzzlers from going too crazy and limits its personality. Gas Guzzlers doesn’t sit firmly in either fantasy or reality and this carries over to the gameplay which can’t decide if it’s an action kart racer or a realistic driving game.
