The song that plays in the Assassin’s Creed trailer above is “Lonely Soul” by Unkle. It’s a good track, check out their stuff.

See, shit like this is why I will be a gamer until the day I die. Hell, what can you even say after a video like that?

Oh you silly people. I’m not trading my soul. I have thousands of souls from poor individuals who read the fine print at the bottom of this page. Go ahead, see for yourself. Did you look? Good. Thank for funding my “All Heroes for Tim, All the time” effort.

Want to trade one soul (near-mint condition) in exchange for one new episode of Heroes every day for the rest of my life. Do you accept?

So, Starcraft 2. When the announcement came late late Friday (or I guess it was very early Saturday), I was honestly… well, not overwhelmed. I think it has to do with the fact that we’ve known about it for weeks. We knew Blizzard was planning a “huge announcement” at their Korean WorldWide Invitational this past […]

So Blizzard’s big announcement this weekend was that Starcraft 2 is in production. Ok. Edit: Here’s the cinematic. High res version on the official site.

The new Crackdown content got me back into the game with a fervor. Those eleven agility orbs I had left? Yeah, only eight left now, baby. Chugging away on those secret orbs too. The boosted noise really helps. The Harpoon Gun is my new favorite weapon, just edging out the heat-seeking rocket launcher due to […]

Mmm, got some new swag in the store. The magnetic poetry is finally in and shipping. 169 individual magnets on a 7″x10″ break apart sheet. I’d love to do another set or two of these. Consume! We’ve also got embroidered hats, zip-up hoodies and beanies for the first time ever. You know, if you’re into […]

This may be the best thing I’ve ever seen. Update: Here it is on YT, though the HD is worth the download.

Though it’s been a rumor, and even started hitting some blog sites last night, it’s now been officially announced and I feel confident reporting it here. Sigil Games, the developer behind Vanguard, has been dissolved. SOE has fully acquired Vanguard and a good size of the Sigil staff. I just want to say that I […]

You know, I’m probably one of the few Xbox 360 owners that just could not care less about Halo 3. I just don’t give a shit. Halo was such a huge and pleasant surprise, and a great way to start off the Xbox and Halo 2 was new maps, new weapons, slightly better graphics, it […]

Apparently there is a bug with the latest Crackdown game update that has been causing some people to lose their saved games. As a precaution, until a quick patch is made, the developers have posted a few easy steps you can take to prevent losing your data.

Just for the record, I don’t have any sort of inside information here that nobody else has. FF13 has not been announced for the 360. Sony has only announced that the game is “not exclusive to the PS3”. That could mean anything. I’m just playing with it. Today marks my return to work after my […]

By far the most common “Peter Scar” theory showing up in my inbox is that the Haitian’s power blocking abilities are somehow involved. Which could account for Peter taking damage and not being able to heal. However I wanted to point out that, assuming Peter survived whatever trauma caused such a nasty scar without his […]

Heroes spoilers ahead, watch out! I’m getting a lot of people suggesting that in the future we saw Peter had never saved Claire or absorbed her power, and that Sylar had killed her. So Peter didn’t have the regenerative power, thus the scar. Sorry, but that’s wrong. First of all, in the events as they […]

How does future Peter have that nasty scar across his face when he clearly has Claire’s healing ability? Maybe the nuclear detonation damaged him so bad that he couldn’t heal properly?

Ok, forget the SM3 time trials. The tougher ones are next to impossible when you’re fighting a time limit and the camera. I’m sure a good number of you have heard about the Planet Earth documentary series. The Discovery Channel has been promoting it pretty hard the past few months. If you haven’t seen any […]

Sweet.

I just got back from seeing Spider-man 3. I loved it. I thought it was great. It was a bit crowded, what with three villains, a protagonist and a love interest, and I think the movie could have done with another 20-30 minutes of footage just to give some of the threads a bit more […]

Well I beat Spider-man 3 last night. Clocked in at about 13 hours, without all the trick races and time trials I haven’t done yet. The game, as I mentioned, has some serious flaws. However if you can manage to look past them there is actually a fun and enjoyable game there. The game has […]

Man, what the fuck? Ok, now I’ve gotten that out of my system. I was really psyched for SM3 because I absolutely loved Spider-man 2 for the Xbox. I thought it was the best Spidey game ever done, and I was really looking forward to having a next-gen version to swing around with. Enter Spider-man […]

We’ve got a few new products coming to the store pretty soon(ish). Zip-up hoodies, hats and beanies with the embrodered CAD logo on them, and one special item which I am particularly excited about. The words and designs will be laser cut- you break them apart andarrange them on your metal surfaces! Ctrl+Alt+Del Magnetic Poetry! […]

Friday May 4th, aside from being the day Spider-man 3 comes out, is also your last chance to pre-order the Ctrl+Alt+Del: The Animated Series season one DVD, and is your last last chance to own the 2-disc collector’s edition. Just so ya know.
