I’m going to hold off talking about Oblivion for another few days. As massive as this game is, I need a week with it before I feel comfortable discussing it from a review standpoint. But first impressions? Wow. I held the first CAD GameDay in a couple of years this past weekend, and it was […]
That was a lot of fun, guys, thanks! I ended up playing G.R.A.W. from 3-6pm, an hour longer than I had planned. We had a steady amount of people, and it was great! That was the most fun I’ve had in the game yet. We noticed there was a problem when trying to do co-op […]
Every year on Saint Patrick’s day, I make it a point to tell anyone who may not know, how to make an Irish Car Bomb. Because I’m a mean sonuvabitch. If you’ve never downed an Irish Car Bomb… well, I like to think there is just nothing quite like it. It’s definitely an experience. Everyone […]
Happy Saint Patrick’s Day! Only four more days until Oblivion ships. Bethesda has been releasing “Countdown to Oblivion” short trailers showcasing little blips of gameplay, which surely whet my appetite. Guitar Hero was a pretty big game at Digital Overload last weekend. My girlfriend tried it out and enjoyed it, so when we got back […]
A reader has informed me that you can do leans in multiplayer, it’s just a different mechanism. You hold down the LB and then can pop out from your position. I’ll go give that a try. Thanks for correcting me on this, Sam!
Yeah, I think it’s safe to say that Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter multiplayer just doesn’t do it for me. I will admit, the play is better when you’ve got good teammates, but it still lacks everything that makes the single player so outstanding. You can’t flatten against object and then peek out. It may sound […]
As I finally recover from Digital Overload and all the travelling around it, I would like to take some time to talk about how great it was. First, you have to understand that I don’t even consider myself a gamer and have never attended any kind of LAN party. In short, I didn’t know what […]
I’m going to talk for a moment about video game politics before getting to video games. On Monday I posted a link to the Video Game Voters Network, because I think it’s important for us gamers to be aware of these issues. I’m just going to touch briefly on why. I’ll start by saying that […]
There are some great picture collections from the event out there. A few of them can be found here, here and here.
Haha I totally forgot. I told Javier I’d make a news post to announce my defeat at Digital Overload. I’d been promising him all weekend that we’d play a game of Fight Night, so on Sunday we finally threw down. We didn’t realize the game was still set to four rounds from a tournament earlier […]
I just wanted to make a shout-out to a couple of very special Digital Overload attendees, Christian and his father. Despite a disability, Christian made a (I believe six hour) trip to Digital Overload and was right there gaming it up with the best of the best. He was truly an inspiration to me, and […]
As I regard this to be a very important issue for gamers, I urge everyone to take a look at this website. I am going to be behind this 110%. I’ve signed up, and I hope you’ll do the same. They’ve got a great backend system that will assist you in contacting your local senators […]
Wow. I don’t know how to put this weekend into words that will do it any justice. It was just incredible, start to finish. Digital Overload 2006 was an absolute success. The entire event went off without a hitch. It was everything I was hoping it would be. I got to hang out and play […]
Well, today is the day. Digital Overload, the first ever Ctrl+Alt+Del LAN party, starts today! Man, I’m psyched. I’ve got some last minute packing to do, but shortly I’ll be heading out on my way to Providence, Rhode Island for the opening of the doors this evening. It’s going to be three days of games, […]

Someone else tells me that the reason Nightcrawler isn’t in the new film is because they didn’t ask him back. They decided they had too many “blue mutants” (Mystique, Beast) in the film. That sounds even stupider than the makeup thing.
