I was just as worried as many of you were when I first heard that the latest installment in the Banjo-Kazooie series would be less of a platformer and more of a racer. I have fond memories of the original Banjo-Kazooie on the Nintendo 64,...
Although there's only five days left until everyone gets to check out the New Xbox Experience, I still feel a little special for getting into it early. I figure I may as well throw my two cents in as I experience the experience. The update...
Kongregate has just recently launched a section of their website called "Kongregate Labs" which is a great starting point for the everyday gamer that wants to take their first steps into creating their own interactive wonders. There's a s...
As every loyal GameFly user knows, extended use of the service is rewarded every three months with a $5 coupon for use in GameFly's store (or to keep rented games). What some users may not know is that your first coupon is still good for t...
Having lots of free time and nothing better to do with my life, I often find myself searching the internet for games or applications that may amuse me for a few minutes. While doing just this last night, I realized that I haven't really c...
EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT THE BIRD IS THE WORD
A-well-a, everybody's heard about the bird
Bird, bird, bird, b-bird's the word
A-well-a, bird, bird, bird, b-bird's the word
A-well-a, bird, bird, bird, b-bird's the word
A-well-a, bird, bird, b-b...
Once again, the disease that is the online RPG sucks my life away. As I previously stated in an earlier blog, I enjoy Ragnarok Online. I've searched for a very long time to find a decent MMORPG, but found that the staggering majority of t...
It's been about twelve years since I first received my kickass Virtual Boy, only to have it returned so I could rent Kirby Super Star for the Super Nintendo. Yes, I said rent. For some reason, my dad thought a $5 rental would be a fine su...
After returning home from a long hard day of learning nothing in class (I was tested on my ability to create WordArt in Microsoft Word in my first class and did a report on the differences between a Wii Remote and a light gun in the other...
[Insert unrelated picture to open blog] As you may or may not have noticed (I'm going to guess most of you haven't), I've been slacking in the blogging area for quite a while now. My last blog was posted almost four months ago and I feel ...
While looking for a new DS game a little more than a year ago, I came across a review of Etrian Odyssey. I love my dungeon crawlers and everything about it sounded pretty awesome, so I went out and bought it a few days after it came out. S...
I just happened to come across this on Kotaku. At first I was just going to pass over it, but I decided to give it a change out of boredom. Turned out better than I thought though, and the Pokemon part was just fucking great. Note to self...
Just in case there are any Wii owners around here that WEREN'T rudely awoken this morning by the blinding blue light, I'd like to point out that the Nintendo Channel is now live and available for download. In case you also had no idea what...
When I first got GTA4, I absolutely could NOT get online. No random matches (ranked or player) would connect and I only got into one or two matches that I was invited to. It pissed me off to no end because I was really looking forward to ...
The more Xbox Live Arcade games I buy, the more I love my 360. My collection of XBLA games never seems to stop increasing, with well over 30 games already bought and STILL a few that I'd like to pick up. At first, I didn't like the idea of...
That's right! Kongregate, everybody's favorite place to go for flash games, has finally opened their online trading card game Kongai to the public! I've been waiting a long time for this (I fucking LOVE TCGs), so I'll certainly be playing...
I just found out this existed. Tomorrow, the Midwest Gaming Classic, the Midwest's largest gaming convention, will begin. It's only $10 to get in for one day, but I just now found out about this the day before it happens, so I'm going to...
Ah, Final Fantasy VII. While most people bash it for being overrated, I still consider it one of the best RPGs I've ever played. Of course, the last time I played it was when the Final Fantasy games were still final and Tactics was one of...
This totally isn't my computer, but it's still pretty cool. I wonder if I could run my computer in jello...... Most of the time I avoid contests because I'm so damn pessimistic and don't feel like trying when I know I'm going to lose. Wel...
I came across this awhile ago, but didn't really understand what exactly it was, considering the whole site's in Spanish. After looking at the pretty pictures for awhile, I bookmarked the page and forgot all about it. I just found this v...
So, I visited my local Dollar General today and found some pretty awesome DVDs for dirt cheap. I thought I'd share my finds with you guys to stress the importance of such stores. At the low, low price of $5 each (okay, maybe they weren't...
I couldn't help but laugh at this. Apparently, the Entertainment and Leisure Software Publishers Association believes that 90% of all DS owners are using R4s to pirate games. 90 percent? Seriously? I'm sure there's a decent number of peo...
Wow, this is my forth post about XBLA games that I've bought. I never thought I'd buy this many Live Arcade games, but I suppose I should known better, looking at the ridiculous number of Virtual Console games I bought on my Wii. Maybe I s...
I got sick of looking at the same old picture of Phoenix, so I decided to change it up a bit. If you're anything like me, though, you probably won't remember who I am anymore (if you even knew before, lol). Anyone excited about One Piece...
I was checking out GameFAQs earlier (don't judge me) and this post about the DLC for 2/5/08 caught my eye. It wasn't a speculation post, it was some guy listing three songs (and their master/cover status) that would be released on that day....
Kotaku's taken a break from crushing my hopes and dreams to post this neat flash-based demo DS on which you can play a demo version of Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney. I guess this is kinda cool. You know what would make it cooler? If you c...
Oh joy. Boogie Bunnies is this week's XBLA game. Bunnies are nice and all, and I do like puzzle games, but WHERE THE HOLY HELL IS MY IKARUGA AND REZ? I seriously have an unopened point card staring at me with a post-it note stuck to it ...
I just found this amazing game, called Audiosurf. It's for the PC and it's only a beta right now, but it's still cool as hell. It looks like this was posted a while back, but it doesn't seem as though there was a playable version around a...
