There’s always next year!

The registration for Digital Overload ends today around 6pm EST. So if you wanted to attend, you need to register before 6pm today. We will not be accepting gamer registrations at the door. We will only be selling spectator badges at the door, and spectators won’t have a seat to play games. It’s hard to […]

IGN has posted a few new screens of the Original Trilogy sequel. Looks yummy.

Oblivion has gone gold. It will be hitting shelves around March 20th. I guess I would be more excited about that news if every video game retailer on the planet hadn’t been listing that as the release date for the last three months. However, it’s nice to have official confirmation. As you might have guessed, […]

I’ve been asked to clarify: The $50 gaming pass will not be available at the door, as I stated. You have to sign up in advance for that. However the $5 spectator pass can be purchased on site,

I posted it last night, but here it is again. They’ve released a trailer for the new Superman Video Game. Supposedly it was constructed entirely with assets from the Xbox 360 version of the game. It looks pretty nice. I’m still adjusting to the Brandon Routh iteration of Superman, which is the one they use […]

I approve.

My brother and his room mate have started a Counter-Strike 1.6 server and they are looking for people to hurt, virtually, of course. If this is your thing, you can find them as Maverik and Lordtiod at 67.15.146.141:27015. Hell, if you’re lucky enough to see me there, you’ll also have the opportunity to put a […]

Digital Overload registration will be closing on Monday. So if you’ve signed up but haven’t completed payment, you’ll need to do that in the next few days. We are not accepting payments at the door. Also, if you’re attending you need to sign in to the DO website and register your PC and information. We’ve […]

Hey, if you can’t make it to Digital Overload this year, this company called Gaming Overdrive is going to be there with lots of camera and recording equipment documenting the event in progress, and making live updates during the event. They’ve got a special webpage set up for it and everything, so over the course […]

So I think I’m at 17-12 now in Fight Night. There are times I log on to play a few games, and I just get whalloped round after round. Or when I’m completely ahead in the scorecards, but I get put to the canvas in the tenth round. Talk about frustrating. Anyway, the counter on […]

A new newspost will be coming later. Just an FYI.

What? Me? Venting? Noooooo… Fight Night Round 3 is great. My thumbs are actually sore. That’s a testament to how fun this game is. Or to how complex the control scheme is. One or the other. The online experience is really great. EA’s lobby and online menu system is really simple to navigate, and I […]

Ignorance is the new intelligence. Gamers are the new crack addicts. You know, I was wondering why my lips were parched, and I was shaking uncontrollably while playing Fight Night…

William Vitka just passed this across my desk, so to speak. It’s an article he’s written concerning the changes (downfall?) of Star Wars Galaxies. There was some information here I hadn’t heard elsewhere. I though some of you former/current SWG players might be interested.

I’m always game for sending little digital armies to their certain destruction. Speaking of Empire at War, I finally got my copy yesterday. Knowing how busy my week was going to be, when I ordered it from EBGames I selected standard shipping. No point in paying extra to get it right away when I wouldn’t […]

So I mentioned RF Online and that I didn’t like it, and people wanted to know why. Let me start by saying that I was really looking forward to RF Online. I mean, big fucking mechs, right? Who doesn’t love robots? The graphics looked solid, so I was hopeful. Unfortunately RF Online is a very […]

I know it’s Monday, but it’s going to be a short and simple newspost for now. Things are pretty busy around here. We’re doing some work on the website, so if something goes wonky, just sit tight. It should be fixed shortly. I am also making an effort to finish fleshing out all the areas […]

So Full Auto is pretty fun. Not necessarily the “huge next-gen title” the Xbox 360 could really use right now, but entertaining nonetheless. Gotta love that rewind feature. I have some big announcements concerning Digital Overload today. We’ve just launched our user registration system. If you are registered for Digital Overload, it is mandatory that […]

A few days ago I talked a bunch about gold farming and its adverse effect on MMO’s. This caused the google ads on our page to specifically display the gold selling ads in their inventory, so we could effectively block them. We’ve now compiled the list we’re using it and made it available to you. […]

I hope everyone had a Happy Valentine’s day. Or  a Happy “whatever the latest real world holidaytranslated into your MMO of choice is” day. So Full Auto on the 360 is interesting. At face value, it could easily be mistaken for a Burnout title. It looks like it, it feels like it, it smells like […]

So we got hit with a little snowstorm here in New England. New Hampshire didn’t get it as bad as New York, but the snow is still pretty deep. I took the weekend off, as I make myself do on occasion, to avoid burning out. My best friend came up from Brooklyn for a couple […]

By talking extensively about gold farming and such on my front page, we’ve been able to get the Google ads to display a wide variety of different gold farmer/seller advertisements. Thanks to the enormous response from readers keeping an eye on it, I’m generating a giant list of sites to block. I’m also to going […]

Ok, you guys have the right idea. But the google ad below for “Everquest Platinum” is an ad for a PC game (Everquest Platinum is a collection of the first EQ and expansions), not in-game currency. But that’s the right spirit! I’m happy to hear from as many people against gold farming as I am.
