It is so wonderful to finally feel optimistic about the future of our country again.

I have played Fallout 3 for thirty-two hours, according to my play clock, obviously not counting reloaded saves, etc. My character is level 15 (out of 20), and I only just completed the GNR. I have still yet to explore the entire northern/northeastern section of the map, I’m not even done exploring the southern areas. […]

I got some really good news over the weekend. I spoke with Dan “YoungWolf7” Smith, whom we helped out a couple of months ago, and he has beaten his cancer the second time around. You may remember that Dan went in for surgery to have a number of tumors removed from his neck/thyroid. The surgery […]

In the Fallout series it is often possible to skip entire portions of the main story via exploration or fast-talking someone. Apparently these shortcuts still exist in Fallout 3. However I stumbled on one that skips a chunk of the story, but does so in a very jarring way. You skip the portion of the […]

There’s been a lot of great anticipation for the maquettes, so let me address some of the more frequently asked questions. Yes, the maquettes will ship overseas. We will not be offering a pre-order for them, however I will give you plenty of advance warning for when they go on sale. Most likely we’ll break […]

I’m really excited today to finally unveil a line of Limited Edition Ctrl+Alt+Del Maquettes that will be available soon! We’ve been working on these since July, and I’ve shown them around here and there at different stages of the creation process, but now that they’ve been finalized and sent off to mass production, I get […]

So I guess enemies do scale, but in a limited capacity. They scale to your level when you enter a new area, but then that area is locked to that level… so if you go back later, you’re stronger than those guys. That sounds just fine to me. Also, the game apparently does have weapon […]

Reminder: Digital Overload Badge Prices go up on Monday, November 3rd.

Well, I have spent the entirety of yesterday wandering around the Capital Wastelands, and I feel I am prepared to make the following statement: This game is Fallout 3. Or at least, as close as I think we were likely to get. It’s got flaws, but looking at the big picture… it’s a faithful addition […]

So I forgot to mention that I’d dusted off my PS3 (literally) and jumped into LBP until Fallout 3 launches tonight. My PSN name is CADTim. I think. I’m pretty sure I’ve never released that before, probably because there’s never been anything worth playing (for me) on the PSN. Anyway, I’ll be hard at work […]

Some of you have noted that I really haven’t talked about the upcoming release of Fallout 3 here on the website. It’s certainly not because the game hasn’t been on my radar, or because I forgot it was coming. Fallout, in a lot of ways, is more than a video game to me. Back when […]

A friendly reminder: on November 3rd the prices for Digital Overload badges and t-shirts goes up. Gamer badges will be $50, Tabletop Badges will be $35, and t-shirts will be $10. We only have a couple hundred badges left, and still four months to the event. Purchasing your badge now not only saves you a […]

There is a statue of me in Fairfax gardens. A statue of me with no pants on. I’ve been playing Fable 2 since Tuesday, and generally I like it. It’s a pretty enjoyable game, but it also, once again, falls short of the revolutionary game that was suggested/promised. It is a very fun game, let […]

I’ve been trucking my way through Dead Space over the last few days. I’m hoping to have it finished up tonight so that tomorrow can be all Fable, all the time.        I have been very impressed with Dead Space so far. It’s been quite some time since a survival horror game gripped me the […]

Well that was an absolute blast. We raised over $400 for Boston’s Pink and Black Campaign, and had a great time doing it. Big thanks to Yann, Paul and Hugh for creating/organizing/running the tournament. It was a lot of fun. Blake, I didn’t get to catch you before you left, but it was great meeting […]

I’m driving up to Massachusetts this morning for the Breast Cancer Brawl tournament. If you play, you should come out, it’s for a great cause (boobs). Even if you don’t play, feel free to stop by and check it out. I’m sure nobody would mind.

I’ve got a nifty little press release for you today. In the near future Ctrl+Alt+Del will finally be coming to retail locations near you. (MONTREAL) — (October 14, 2008) — After much anticipation, one of the most popular and well-known webcomics in the digital world is coming to the retail market. After nearly 7 years […]

It’s done. It’s finished. My new gaming rig is finally buttoned up and done. And ugh, what an ordeal it was. I’ll post about it, partially so you can share in my pain, and partially in case any other poor sucker runs into this problem, hopefully my post will show up when he searches in […]

         Now just get me a decent 360 arcade stick.

I know it’s a stupid thing to do, wishing for the release of a yet another new game when you’re staring down the barrel of the fall gaming season, which is threatening to buckshot your face into mush with a slew of new titles, but I can’t help it. I’m a sucker for 40K, I’m […]

I just want to give potential Digital Overload attendees a heads up here, we’re rapidly approaching our attendance cap, and we still have six months to go until the event. So just a few reminders: Nothing is reserved until you’ve paid. Just signing up on the website does not hold a seat for you. Badge […]

Breast Cancer Brawl is a Warmachine/Hordes tournament, held in Malden, MA to benefit breast cancer awareness, treatment and research. If you play Warmachine/Hordes and are nearby, you should go. It’ll be a great time, and it’s for a great cause. Or even if you don’t play, but want to just stop by and check it […]

Did one of you grab up the name “Ordo” on the Ostermark server, or is it just a coincidence that it’s in use? I hope he’s at least an Ironbreaker. Edit: Just to be clear, I don’t care that people use the name (it appears to be taken on most servers, it seems). I just […]

Just goofin’ off in Photoshop.
