Here are some pictures you can look at if you want. This month's episode of The Journalism Show was based on Half-Life 2: Episode 2, and is the first one presented in the show's intended format. As I said in the post, I want...

Here is a thing you can watch if you want. The timing is a little weird at the very beginning because it converted that way this time for some reason. Sorry. (If our player's sound isn't working for you, there's a Youtube ve...

What's better than a video of monkeys in an onsen? If you said a steak dinner and a BJ, you are correct. But another thing that is also better is a video of BABY monkeys in an onsen. The lovely Adam Dork has once again provi...

Recently, Adam Dork got a fancypants new HD camcorder. Even more recently, Adam took a trip to Japan. Fate has brought these two facts together to coalesce into the kind of thing that only cosmic wisdom beyond our understandi...

California-based company Aksys Games is the bringer-outer of fine titles like BlazBlue and Record of Agarest War. The publisher announced today on its Web site that it will be handling the North American localization of Cave'...

Since a lot of you seemed to like this month's episode of The Journalism Show, I thought I'd steal Ashley's idea and share a closer look at some of the artwork from it with you. I want to thank everyone who commented for thei...

According to Siliconera, yes. And if you just clicked that link and found it dead, you can either take that as confirmation that someone let the cat out of the bag, or that this is some kind of misunderstanding. Before the pa...

Here's a thing you can watch if you want. This month's episode was made for the Podtoid fans out there, and features appearences by our very own Anthony Burch and Brad Nicholson. And, in a somewhat less colorful capacity, my...

Sorry this is kinda late. You can blame Anthony, since it's largely his fault and he won't care if you do anyway. Podtoid 133 is a thing we did, which Brad Nicholson hosted, Adam Dork edited, and I was late to because someone confused me as to our start time. You can listen to it here, or subscribe to us on iTunes, where it had better be by now, dammit. Enjoy.

Or alternately, Why MAGfest is Blatantly Better Than PAX. The 8th annual Music and Gaming Festival wrapped up this week, and while some of us have still not fully recovered, I thought I'd give you a look at a few of the thing...

We now have direct confirmation of a disruptor in our midst; one who has acquired an almost messianic reputation in the minds of certain citizens. His figure is synonymous with the darkest urges of asshattery, nonsense, and F...

As you may (should) know by now, MAGfest 8 is this weekend. The 8th annual Music and Gaming festival starts rocking Alexandria, Virginia on January 1st, with 4 days of non-stop gaming and live music, and the festivities start...

Here it is. After two weeks of demystifying a program I've never used before, followed by a two-day fistfight trying to convert the video, I am proud, thrilled, horrified, ashamed and (insert a dozen other emotions here) to ...

Is it FRIDAY already? That's madness. The past week has gone by pretty fast for me. As you may or may not know, I started work on a silly little cartoon featuring Senor Beedog, and that's pretty much all I've done for the pas...

Something weird is going on. As you may or may not be aware, the Large Hadron Collider is now fully operational. That's great news for us science nerds, but ever since that bastard went online, all kinds of strange stuff has ...

Granddaddies of the genre itself, Konami is set to bring a new and original rhythm game to the DS, titled Utacchi. The name is a mashup of the Japanese word for song, "uta," and the distinctly less Japanese word for touch, "t...

Online retailer Gamestar has published a Wii pre-order list, and making a surprise appearence on that list is Radirgy: Noir -- the sequel to Milestone's terribly underrated cel-shaded shmup, Radirgy. If you missed Radirgy on ...

HELLO EBRYNYAN. Today, Chad lit the fires on our big ol' fat list of the top 50 videogames of the decade. It was like a nice picnic where everyone held hands and ate macaroni salad together and agreed on everything. Stay tune...

Straight outta Compton. This weekend, some silly goose put out a trailer that had a couple of doofuses hitting each other with trash bags and called it the King of Fighters movie by mistake. I'm not sure if some intern accide...

So much food ... YES. Anyway. Wouldn't you know it, the day I start talking a lot of smack about the Large Hadron Collider, they've got that f*cker up and running by the end of the night. And it works! And the universe didn't...

This week's Friday update to the official Super Street Fighter IV website features a new trailer, (which we've already shown you), and gives the recently revealed new characters their own profile pages. Adon, Cody and Guy now...

If you're anything like me or Chad, you probably remember drawing your own videogame levels when you should have been paying attention in math class. We all did it, and dreamed of someday becoming one of the creative minds re...

As you've no doubt heard by now, Cody, Guy and Adon are the latest official additions to the Super Street Fighter IV roster. We got a peek at Famitsu's reveal yesterday, and now IGN has gotten their hands on the first traile...

Ladies and gentlemen, Podtoid 126 has occurred. Anthony was absent again, but the rest of the regular crew was present, and Brad Nicholson filled the void with his muscles. This week, we talked about Assassin's Creed II, Mode...

If you've never heard of Roman Dirge, you're about to. He's the creator of the brilliant comic book series, Lenore. Roman has been delighting the masses with his brand of spooky cuteness for years now, and he's about to grace...

TONIGHT. There will be Podtoid. This week, we'll likely be discussing our top ten favorite games of all time, as inspired by Nick's post over here. This was suggested by Brad Nicholson, who will also be joining us. We'll also...

As Nakky promised over on the official Super Street Fighter IV dev blog last week, the new issue of Famitsu carries within it some hot new character reveals for SSFIV. Officially joining the roster this Spring will be Adon, C...

Seeing tattoos like this makes me wonder if there's some user-friendly shortcut filter in Photoshop I'm not aware of, whereby people can make vector images look like actual tattoos with minimal effort. Because if not, that me...

This week's update comes courtesy of Nakky's blog over at the official Super Street Fighter IV website, and teases some big news on the way. Nakky has a screencap of Chun-Li being treated unkindly by someone of unknown identi...

You might not have heard, but they had to shut down operations at the Large Hadron Collider again. I didn't mention this when it happened a couple weeks ago because it was Nick's birthday and that gave me a good excuse to mak...

Carlton, ladies and gentlemen. That's what I'm talkin' about. Hamza's still off looking at moose, so you're stuck with me again. But that's okay, because I talked to Jim earlier, who's finally gotten to play Raskulls, and he ...

Capcom has just announced that it's come to terms with Plan B Entertainment on the rights to a film based on its upcoming game, Dark Void. Plan B Entertainment apparently being Brad Pitt's own production company, it's possibl...

Capcom has been working with FAB Starpoint on some new Mega Man merchandise so those of us in North America don't have to be so jealous of all the cool stuff they always get in Japan. Kramez over at Capcom-Unity has given us ...

Hi. It's me. I'll be bringing you tonight's recap because Hamza went to Canada for some reason. Maybe to see a moose. It was probably to see some game, but I'm going to pretend it was a moose because that's cooler. Jim is als...

The good folks over at EventHubs have a post up discussing SSFIV's character roster, and according to Capcom's Christian Svensson, the lineup was already decided upon some time ago. When asked on the Capcom-Unity forum if the...

Senor Perrito del Burrito says: Podtoid 125 has happened. It's informative. It's offensive. It's got lots of talking. This week, Aaron Linde hosted as Jim, Samit and I also said things. It was pretty good. You can subscribe to us on iTunes to hear it, or listen to it here. Big thanks to IJHATT for our delightful outtro this week.

Ever vigilant in that department, Siliconera has unearthed another Japanese trademark, this time from Namco Bandai. It seems the company has registered something called Ridge Racer Accelerated, and if I had to guess, I'd say ...

Uh ... yeah, I don't know about that. Look, I like Monster Hunter and everything, and I'm all for merchandising the hell out of it. Some of that stuff is pretty dope. This pillow based on the game's Furu Furu monster, however...
