I forgot to mention, I read yesterday that for the PS3 version of Alone in the Dark, they’re adding/fixing a bunch of stuff, and that they planned to offer the fixes to 360 owners as a patch. Once that happens I’ll definitely review the game again. I think with just a little help here and […]

Had my best friend up from New York this weekend for some gaming. We plowed through Lego Indiana Jones which was just as enjoyable as expected. Really psyched for some Lego Batman later this year. Also, just for shits and giggles, we fired up Alone in the Dark (the new one), which despite my anticipation […]

So played a bunch of Too Human today. We finished up the Ice Forest, got to level 22 or so. It’s a very enjoyable game, especially on co-op. It’s also a good game, but not a great game. And unfortunately it is just a couple of minor issues that keep it from being a great […]

This is the part where I would write a newspost, but instead I want to play Too Human all day, so I have nothing particularly interesting to talk about, nor time to come up with some bullshit. Mmm, cybernetic gods.

People have been emailing me this morning to tell me that Michael Capps, the president of Epic Games, used a Ctrl+Alt+Del comic in the Gears of War 2 presentation at GC. Pretty nifty. Thanks to Francisco for sending me a link to the video. Overall it’s an interesting presentation, albeit 45 minutes long (the comic […]

*Sigh* Well, that time of year is approaching again. It is with a mixture of excitement and dread that I look to the Fall video-game release schedule each year. So many great titles that I long to play, and yet at the same time I know how many of them fall to the wayside unfinished, […]

I’ve had a bit of a roller-coaster interest in Too Human since its announcement long, long ago, with lots of ups and downs, fortunately culminating in an “up” phase (fortunately because the game comes out on Tuesday). When Silicon Knights first announced Too Human I was interested. And then it got shuffled from console to […]

I’ve actually got this little personal list of features that I think every game should have. Co-op mode is right there at the top, along with ‘splitscreen multiplayer from the same console’ and ‘allow two people from the same console online for versus matches’. Recently I’ve been playing a lot of Battlefield: Bad Company and […]

So I said things were calming down, getting back to normal, and then I realized it was August, and I needed to start planning Digital Overload 2009. Which I guess is “normal” for me. You don’t really get a lot of downtime in this gig, you just sort of jump from one project to the […]

Whew, okay. So things are getting back to normal around here. ConnectiCon was a blast, got to see a lot of friends that I don’t see very often due to geographical reasons. Got to play a bunch of Soul Calibur 4 at my table and a few games of Warmachine. But best of all I […]

Nevermind, powered through and whipped this up. I guess Blizzard will be putting an achievement system into Diablo 3 and Starcraft 2 as well as World of Warcraft. That’s fine with me, I’m a bit of an achievement whore. ConnectiCon was outstanding, I’ll make a post later. Right now I need some sleep in a […]

Figures I’d make a typo in the comic for when I’m away from a computer for four days. Thanks for the million-and-one emails though, hehe. So don’t be surprised if Monday’s comic isn’t up until Monday afternoon. I literally just walked in the door from ConnectiCon and I am exhausted.

So I will be at ConnectiCon this weekend with some other fools. Here’s a rundown of what I’ll have with me, and  the best times to catch me. I will of course have the limited edition Commandments of Gaming poster ($10). Only 100 of them, so I will make 50 available on Friday, and 50 […]

As I’m sure you’ve noticed by now, we finally rolled out a handful of the new site features we’ve been talking about. The archive for the Sillies is now in place, so you’ll be able to catch up on ones you miss without surfing through old newsposts. Additionally, the archive systems for both comics got […]

So this is the limited edition poster that will be available at ConnectiCon. They’ll be 11″x17″ on glossy… something. I’m only going to print 100 (or maybe 150, I haven’t decided yet), so they may go quickly, or not, depending how busy the convention is. It’s hard to tell. I’ll also be raffling off the […]

It’s a crappy off-screen pull, but you can catch a glimpse of Deadpool and Gambit. Not sure if the video will get pulled, so watch it while it’s hot. Edit: Yep, it got pulled. You can still find it here and here.

Soul Calibur 4 comes out this week, with its Star Wars chewy center. I’ve always preferred Soul Calibur over games like Dead or Alive. Dead or Alive is a great series, don’t get me wrong, but Soul Calibur’s characters always appealed to me more. Next to Powerstone, Soul Calibur was one of my most-played Dreamcast […]

They announced that Green Lantern will be in the game. Seems obvious, but I’m glad to hear it confirmed. Now I just get to hope beyond hope that it’s Hal Jordan.

Pierre says this week for the sillies archive, so… we’ll see.

So I’ll be at ConnectiCon next weekend, and I wanted to do some limited prints and posters. Five years ago, when I attended my very first Otakon, I made a “Ten Commandments” parody poster. It hasn’t been available for years, but it was always one of my favorites, so I thought I’d recreate it for […]

Hey folks! Just a quick note to let everyone know that ZeStuff is having an incredible clearance sale right now. With over 100 items being cleared out, there’s some pretty awesome deals in there. Here’s a list of things you will find: A bunch of t-shirt models starting at $7.95 Books Card games (Hero Cards, […]
