Ahh, the fall. The air starts getting cooler… the foliage begins to change color… and gamers get absolutely drowned in a deluge of new releases. If you’re a gaming enthusiast, you are likely all too familiar with this time of the year. Developers want their games out right before/during the holiday shopping insanity, and so […]
Just a quick reminder that the character shirts (Ethan, Lucas, Lilah, etc) in our store have been discounted on clearance, to move them out so we can make room for new merchandise! If that wasn’t enough, if you input the code SAVE10 when you checkout, you’ll save an extra 10% off your entire order. So […]
So Dead Rising 2 is a zombie-slaughtering good time. It’s not exactly an huge evolution from the first game, but if you really enjoyed the first game, you can expect more of the same fun. With Frank West out of the picture (lololol), the photography aspect of the game is gone, replaced with (in my […]
Last year I hosted a Marissa’s Bunny to help raise awareness for Infantile Spasms, an epileptic condition. I still keep the bunny in my office as a reminder. Over the weekend I got an email from Marissa’s dad, who told me that Marissa has taken a turn for the worse and is in need of […]
Final Fantasy 14 launched this week for people who bought the CE, and I’m really digging the game so far. It’s way different from WoW, so that’s a nice change of pace, and it seems to fit in perfectly with my casual attitude towards the game. I can jump on for an hour here or […]
Erin Wood, Brian’s wife, has sent out a thank you to the gaming community via Kotaku. I’m reposting it here for you guys. Hello. My name is Erin Wood, and I wanted to send a request to please pass along my most sincere and heartfelt thanks to the gaming community for the overwhelming support provided […]
So Devil May Cry is getting a reboot. I assume that despite Dante’s new look, the game will retain its testicle-crushing difficulty. Video Games | Devil May Cry | TGS 10: Debut Trailer XBox 360 | Playstation 3 | Nintendo Wii Dante and I don’t get along. I attempted DMC3 some years back, […]
I tweeted about this a short while back, but Brian Wood, a lead developer at Relic on the Company of Heroes franchise was killed in a terrible car accident a week ago. His last act was to swerve his vehicle to put himself between the oncoming car, and his pregnant wife. He was killed, but […]
Today’s post is brought to you by R.U.S.E. and the letter C. Advertisement
And that brings our third Choose Our Adventure story to a close. I hope you enjoyed reading and voting, I know I enjoyed writing and drawing it. Obviously there will be a fourth issue sometime in the future, but something tells me that the next time you see Ethan MacManus: Space Archaeologist, it will be […]
So after all that talk, I finally spent some time with the FFXIV open beta towards the end of last week. My initial impressions are as follows. First of all, the graphics and animations are great. It’s a gorgeous looking MMO, and the character animations, which you’ll likely be spending hours and hours staring at, […]
September’s a good month. I suppose if you have to go back to school, you might argue that, and you’d have a strong case. But allow me to present my case. If you watch the television in some capacity, there are a number of fantastic shows returning this month. Dexter, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, […]
The Final Fantasy XIV open beta is supposed to launch tomorrow. I haven’t found anywhere to pre-load the client, but I have the game pre-ordered so I’ll definitely be checking it out this week (in case I want to cancel my preorder!) I played Final Fantasy 11 for a few weeks, but it wasn’t my […]
I’ve been playing a healthy bit of Mafia 2 over the last couple of days. I’m a little more than halfway through the game, and I’m loving it. I’ve read some other reviews that are calling it an “empty sandbox” but I disagree with that assessment. A “sandbox” game, like GTA or Red Dead Redemption […]
I’ve had better weeks. Not that anything terrible has happened, but rather a string of frustrating minor annoyances that are playing havoc with my “list of things I’d rather be doing.” A couple of Wednesday’s back, my internet suddenly went kaput. Not so far as complete outage, but more along the lines of “Remember 56k […]
Hunted: The Demon’s Forge has been advertising with us this past week, and it’s a game I’m really looking forward to. If you haven’t heard of the title yet, think Gears of War meets a fantasy dungeon crawl. With a bias heavily towards the Gears side of things (dark, gory, lots of use of cover). […]
I’ve had a few things on my mind recently and Tim was kind enough to let me make a second newspost in a row so here goes: 1) After some analysis of the smartphone survey we did Monday, something struck me. There’s a massive amount of Android users. Apparently, I’ve been on my iCloud for […]
A few people told me this morning that they have been having issues with the RSS feed since 1-2 weeks. If it’s your case, please verify your configuration to make sure you’re loading the CAD RSS feed from http://www.cad-comic.com/rss/. The old feedburner URL does not work anymore.
Don’t have a heart attack by looking at my avatar. Tim has not started losing his hairs…yet! For those who don’t know me (99% of you), my name is Pierre. I’m the guy who handles the technical side of this website (coding, servers, etc…). I take over the front page this morning to ask for […]
Alrighty folks, the contest is closed. The number I was thinking of was 2028. I’ve notified the winners via email. Thank you all for participating!
Free stuff is pretty awesome, wouldn’t you agree? So in the spirit of the awesomeness of free stuff, we’re giving away some free stuff. Funimation has given us some Casshern Sins swag to give away, which means it’s contest time! I’m thinking of a number between 1 and 10,000. Send an email to cad.contest (at) […]
I liked the first Kane and Lynch, despite the fiasco surrounding its advertising. I liked the co-op campaign, and I really liked the Fragile Alliance multiplayer mode, despite its issues. And as much as I’m looking forward to the sequel next week, having been playing the multiplayer demo recently, I’m afraid that the game is […]
First things first, all of the character tee shirts (Ethan, Lucas, Lilah, Zeke and Chef Brian) in our store have been marked down to $13.95 to clear the way for new inventory later this year. As with the previous six generations of character shirts, once these are gone, they’re gone for good. We will not […]
