Signed Comic Prints

August 20, 2012 by Tim

Update #3: Ok, all gone for real now! Thanks! I’ll post later in October when another batch is available! Update #2: I just found 5 more of the no-bend envelopes needed to ship these signed prints, so there are a few more available for this batch. Update: Sold Out! Thanks Everyone! Another batch of signed comic […]

The New York Post has reported that EA is quietly entertaining the idea of a sale. Of course, whether anyone wants to buy them is another matter altogether. Vivendi was reportedly looking to sell off Activision-Blizzard earlier this year, and no one was interested.

Signed Comic Prints

August 18, 2012 by Tim

Another batch of signed comic prints are now up for grabs. There are twenty available. Fair warning, this will be the last batch for a little while, probably until sometime in October. These prints should ship out next week.

Sleeping Dogs

August 17, 2012 by Tim

Here’s the short, TLDR version of the following review for those of you that already trust my opinion. Ready? Should you pick up Sleeping Dogs? YES. Now, I’m willing to allow that a small portion of my enthisiasm for this game rests on the fact that the summer so far has been absolutely dismal in […]

An honest mistake

August 13, 2012 by Tim

It seems that Zynga has suddenly decided to give all of its employees free stock (options?) as a gesture of good will in the face of their current crisis. Certainly hoping to prevent everyone from jumping a sinking ship is a consideration as well. Sounds great until you realize those are the very same stocks […]

Book Preorder Final Days

August 6, 2012 by Tim

I just wanted to point out that Wednesday will be the last day to place a preorder for Volume 2 or Volume 4 (or both) and take advantage of the bundle savings, and to get a free mini Zeke plush figure for free. The books are expected to beging shipping out to preorder customers in the very […]

To the death

by Tim

Zynga is having a bad time lately. They bought the makers of “Draw Something” for a nearly $200 million, just in time for pretty much the entire world to say “You know what, fuck this. I don’t feel like drawing something anymore.” Zynga’s stock recently spiraled into a flaming nosedive, but not before a bunch […]

Hobbitses

August 1, 2012 by Tim

Fundamentally, I’m not against the idea of a third Hobbit film. I loved the LOTR trilogy, and I’m sure Peter Jackson will do well with the Hobbit. The problem is… the Hobbit is such a short book. I’ll admit it’s been a long time since I’ve read it, but I seem to recall it being […]

Arcade fun week

July 30, 2012 by Tim

Admittedly, it’s been a little while since I played Orcs Must Die, but it’s not a game that I would say rests heavily on its “plot”. Essentially Orcs constantly come charging into your castle, and you have to stop them. With murder. Why “must” they die? Who knows. In fact, the entire game could simply […]

Sleeping Dogs

July 27, 2012 by Tim

Usually summers are a little on the dry side as far as game releases go, and this one has been pretty light. I am excited for Sleeping Dogs, though. It’s an open-world GTA/Saint’s Row sandbox game with a few neat twists. Might be just what the doctor ordered to ease us into the crazy fall […]

Planetside 2 Beta

July 25, 2012 by Tim

Just wanted to remind you guys that you can still sign up for the Planetside 2 Beta.  

There are 10 slots left for the next batch of Signed Comic Prints. I open these up for sale in small quantities every once in a while, to make sure that I can stay on top of the orders. This batch will be shipping out by the end of the week. This lot is gone! […]

Rise

by Tim

Well. I saw The Dark Knight Rises. I know a lot of people haven’t yet, so I’ll keep this little review spoiler free. First of all, I didn’t hate the movie. On the same token, I didn’t love it, either. I guess I would say it was a solid outing, without feeling really as memorable […]

Signed Prints

July 24, 2012 by Tim

A new, small batch of Comic Prints are now available. This batch will be shipping out by the end of the week.

Deadlight

by Tim

I’m finally on the back end of the con crud, after a week of feeling under the weather. Getting sick sucks, but getting sick in the middle of a super hot summer, on one of your busiest weeks in said summer, is just a nightmare. XBLA’s Summer of Arcade is underway, with this week bringing […]

Books: You Should Preorder Them

July 18, 2012 by Tim

Really! It helps us figure out how many to order, and if you preorder now you get a free mini Zeke plush figure with your book! Order all four and save a bunch of money!

Down and out

by Tim

Back when I used to do a lot of conventions I was pretty good about remembering to constantly sanitize my hands throughout the weekend. You shake a lot of hands, sign a bunch of swag, and really you have no idea where people have been and what sort of germs they’re carrying around, so it […]

No dino, no deal

July 13, 2012 by Tim

Let’s see if Primal Carnage looks awesome… Dinosaurs? Check. Dinosaurs? Check. DINOSAURS?! Check. I hadn’t even heard of this game until a couple of days ago, but I’ve got the website bookmarked and I’ll be waiting for this to come out. It looks to me like it’s got a Left 4 Dead co-op vibe, but […]

I found a new toy…

July 10, 2012 by Tim

Apparently we’ve had a Ctrl+Alt+Del Facebook page for years now, and I didn’t realize it. I think Pierre set it up, along with a Twitter account. He may have told me about it, and I forgot. Either way, I’ve found it now, so if you’re on Facebook and you want to keep up with the […]

Book Preorder Sale is Live!

July 9, 2012 by Tim

After way too long, Ctrl+Alt+Del Volume 2 is available again, as well as the all-new Ctrl+Alt+Del Volume 4! Today we opened up preorders for the books, including special discounted bundles and limited edition hardcover copies. If you’ve never seen a Ctrl+Alt+Del book, let me tell you, they’re pretty nice. We spare no expense, and they’re […]

Book sale start time

July 8, 2012 by Tim

The planned start time for the Book preorder sale is Monday at 9am PST (Noon EST). I know people are looking to grab themselves one of the limited hardcover copies, because they’re so… hard and shiny and sexy… so 9am PST is the time you’re aiming for!

Bookstravaganza

July 6, 2012 by Tim

Five years ago we relased Ctrl+Alt+Del Volume 3: Critical System Failure. And since then, I have not released Volume 4. Honestly, I have no real excuse. I just keep putting it off, telling myself “I’ll work on it later this year” or “I’ll do it right after this other project I’m working on” and it […]

ConnectiCon

July 4, 2012 by Tim

I’ll be at ConnectiCon 2012 as a guest in a week and a half. I don’t know what panels I’ll be doing, but I know for sure that I’ll be hanging out in the board game room looking to get some games going. I’ll try and have a sign or something so you can find me easily. […]
