Continued… Leveling: The goal of leveling is achievement. Let’s face it, you put the effort into leveling a character up, you want to show him off. A clear and distinct advancement in power as you increased in levels. And not just in hit points, but in every aspect possible. Levels, privileges, titles, skills, armor, mounts. […]
I managed to work far enough ahead on the strip that the next week and a half worth of comics are finished. So I’ve got some free time to relax, catch up on some games and focus on some other projects that I keep putting off. Over the weekend I gave some thought to what […]
The new downloadable heroes and villains are finally available for Marvel Ultimate Alliance. For a simple button masher, MUA provided a good chunk of entertainment for my friends and I. We’ve had an itch to replay the game on hard, and the new characters seem like all the justification needed to do so. Someone sent […]
Double Agent continues to entertain. If I beat it before Spider-man 3 ships (on a Friday, supposedly? That’s bizarre), then I may have to take it online again for a while. There must be people that still play. Don’t forget that May 4th is the deadline to pre-order your copy of the first season of […]

My shelves are full of games I’ve never completed. My shelves even contain games I’ve played for no more than ten minutes, Titan Quest, Enchanted Arms, to name a couple. I’ll start playing a game, and then another game I want to play will come out. Or most often, a combination of too many games […]
So I spent a little bit of time last night trying out Halo 2 for Vista. I loaded it up on my work rig, because I’m not running Vista on my gaming computer. The first feature that caught my eye about the disc was the “Tray and Play” feature, which lets you pop the disc […]
I want to bring your attention to a couple of sci-fi action RPG’s coming out this year that I’m pretty psyched about, Mass Effect and Too Human. Mass Effect is being developed by Bioware, so anyone who has played KOTOR should be rightfully excited. The game is supposed to massive, so fingers crossed it comes […]
As I’ve been mentioning, the 2-disc Collector’s Edition of the Animated Series DVD includes a 30-minute video featurette. I cut up about three minutes worth of footage from that and made a simple little trailer for you. Basically the featurette… uhh features anything we filmed between late 2004 and mid 2006. Also the question asked […]
First of all, just a reminder that you can pre-order the first season of Ctrl+Alt+Del: The Animated Series on DVD until May 4th. The 2-disc collector’s edition, with a 30 minute video featurette, is only available during the pre-order. I want to bring your attention to a couple of sci-fi action RPG’s coming out this […]
A couple episodes of American Chopper and a Sharpie later…
I get about 95% of the t-shirts I wear from Threadless, and I saw this design today which I thought was just really clever. Go check out their stuff. It’s pretty much all user-submitted designs, and some of them are great.
My thoughts are with the friends and families of the people killed in at Virginia Tech today. I am aware that Jack Thompson is currently on the news blaming the whole thing on video games. The man is reprehensible. And that’s all I’m going to say on the subject. I’ve finished Guitar Hero 2 on […]
You can head on over to the spiffy new Ctrl+Alt+Del: The Animated Series splash page (hit F5 if you don’t see it right away). There you’ll be presented with the links for buying the DVDs of Season One. If you were a yearly subscriber at any point, or a monthly subscriber for more than $15, […]
I have been instructed to inform you that pre-orders for the Ctrl+Alt+Del: The Animated Series Season One DVDs will begin tomorrow (Thursday). The standard edition DVD will be $19.99 and the 2-Disc Collector’s Edition will be $29.99. Previous subscribers to the series online (anyone who at any point had a one year subscription, or any […]
Form 6478, Credit for Alcohol used as Fuel Yeah… CREATIVE fuel! Giggity.
I mentioned the Ctrl+Alt+Del: Animated Series DVD last week, and you guys had questions. I have now sought out answers to said questions, and I return to you bearing aforementioned answers. The episodes will be in widescreen with full Dolby surround. The DVD region will be set to 0, so it can be played anywhere. […]
Season 3 (Part 1) of Entourage came out on DVD. The episodes are so short I’m sorely tempted to gorge myself on the entire meal in one sitting. But no, I must ration the goodness. I must make it last as long as possible. On another note, why do they call it Season 3 Part […]
Super Paper Mario comes out next week. I’ve never bothered with a Paper Mario game, quite frankly because they looked boring to me. If I wanted to play an RPG’ish game with turn-based combat, I can think of about a dozen franchises I’d rather do it with than Mario. Though for this one they’ve done […]
My friend Brian Carroll has posted a couple of his independent films for judging on mtvU’s “Best Film on Campus” contest. Head on over and check them out, and please rate them! Cupidity Your host, Dave Mephisto
Yesterday was my birthday (no emails please), so I took the day off. I’m a little behind on work, so I’m going to focus on that instead of ranting about this thing or that thing. Played a bit of Guitar Hero 2 though. Got far enough to unlock Dead! by My Chemical Romance, so I’m […]
My best friend Toby came up from New York this weekend for some scheduled laziness. I actually got to do nothing but play video games and relax from Friday evening to Sunday afternoon. Running this little business of mine keeps me fairly busy, so that doesn’t happen often. We played a number of games that […]
Just to be clear, I like Vista. I’ll go into depth about my thoughts on the new OS with Monday’s newspost, but I just wanted to throw that out there before any of you started jumping to conclusions about my feelings on Microsoft’s latest.
I’m frazzled today. You know shit’s bad when you start using words like “frazzle”. I promised a story, specs and pictures of the new gaming rig, as well as new puppy pics, and I hath delivered. My old gaming rig is now my new work rig, and running Windows Vista Ultimate. Today and tomorrow’s comics […]
