This is fucking amazing, ha ha, funny stuff. I know I can't wait.

The Onion is a genius news satire site that informs and lampoons. I bring it up here because it is having an in focus week on video games and some of their funnier articles can be found, compiled, at the bottom of the page. Check it out. ...

Have you ever tried to co-ordinate your thumbs after a box of wine? Or a bottle of spirits? Or when you reached a BAL of .304? Look, I drink, alot. My job puts me in close proximity with barmen, who are ferocious drinkers, and, as they ar...

I have recently finished my studies for the year and have 3 months off. So I am drinking like a bastard. I had finished 2 litres of box wine by about three in the morning and, as is usual for me in that state, I desired some accompanyment t...

I must admit that I have a soft spot for the underdog losers. This stems from the fact that I am an underdog loser myself (shock) and thus feel their pain. So it is always nice when an underdog looser turns out to secretly be awesome as it ...

I am ashamed to say it but I loves me some girls dressed as fanboy stuff. It is probably due to a broken sexual development that grew around Saturday morning cartoons and videogames. But no matter which way you slice it, this is damn pre...

It is a widely regarded fact, around the internet, that Ninjas are cool. I agree, but I am also curious as to the origins of this coolness. Fortunately Data East sated that curiousity with a historically based game that deals with the subje...

I love pro-wrestling. If anyone here is from Brisbane, and wants to start a league, drop me a line. Nothing spawns more rabid fandom than pro wrestling, except games. So when a wrestling game is made it draws attention. I have not played m...

I grew up in Goodna, a derelict outer suburb of Brisbane. This is a place where people are anti-semetic, even though there ARE NO FUCKING SEMITES, Australias Jewish population is tiny, and Brisbanes numbers in the high hundreds. So that giv...

This is going to sound a tad mad and as I have been drinking to celebrate a rather easy Psychology test it is understandable. Well thought out folk like cowzilla, Jim, Wardrox and everyone who has posted a message about games as art have c...

Yes, finally, I have put something in my Wii that's not Wiisports or a drunkenly motivated attempt at "man and machine, power EXTREME", except with my wang. I was told the opening hour was dull but I have enjoyed every bit of it so far, ki...

I'll admit that I go to IGN on occasion. Stop looking at me like that. It was one time I swear it was just a stupid mistake, me and the guys were drunk and we sorta got outta hand, don't be like this baby. Anyway, a little while back they ...

My relatives, on my mothers side, were instrumental in the formation of Australias Labor party, it was a leftist party designed to get workers treated as something more than disposable fodder. It is now a mirror version of Australia's conse...

OMG!!!! Mario Galaxy only got a 9.5 on Gamespot and a 9.7 on IGN, but that means they are not perfect and I can't buy them cause I have tied my self esteem to this game and that's like them saying that I am not great in every way and that m...

I should preface this by saying that, while I am a Journalism major, I am not studying the practical aspect but rather semiology and the control schema that are interwoven throughout the media. So this is not some rant by a wannabe journo b...

This is something that has been annoying me for quite a fucking while now. It used to make sense when Australia was pretty much nothing but PAL, hence the need to wait while the game was translated into a bunch of indo-european languages th...

I've come to the conclusion that everything the gaming community asks for, everything so obviously needed to make life better, will constantly be denied, at least until we forget about it and it can look like the companies idea. Similar to...

I am again, sparked by xeroxmes horrible live action experience with a fanboy, driven to rant about fans. I AM A FANBOY. I love sci-fi, fantasy, TV, cinema, comics, video games, books et-fucking-cetera. But the kind of fanboy we deal wit...

Eternal Champions: Challenge From the Darkside is great. Granted, the first one on the Mega Drive was more or less terrible, it's physics and speed were sub par and it didn't even have some decent violence. Challenge From the Darkside chang...

I've got Street Fighter Alpha 3 on MAME and I'm wanting to use Juli, Juni and Balrog. Trouble is, those codes are time released and I have no idea how to get that to happen. I assume there has to be something in MAME that will allow me to ...

I never thought I would have to post this, this is like saying eating is good or Bruce Campbell is a boddhisatva, this is just one of those things that goes without saying. But no, doubt still exists and madmen keep saying otherwise, so it...

I am not an "ist" of any description. I feel that every socio-political idea has a way of functioning in society and that the problem is in that people pin their ideas to a single narrow thought process and that our government acting throug...

There's a line in Fight Club about that sore tooth that you can't stop jabbing with your toungue, and I am like that. Not "like that" in the "manifesting my repressed homosexuality as a schizophrenic hallucination" way, but in the "have to ...

I feel as though I have been fucked around by some bastard genie. I have never had alot of cash which has always meant one system and a painfully slow purchase rate for games and long were the hours that I wished this situation changed. S...

I have a fuck-tonne of arcade roms, mostly fighters, including: Killer Instincts 1&2 (they are not bad games dammit) Time Killers Blood Storm Every SNK fighter- except the new KoFs that aren't emulated. All the Street Fighters- Why does ev...

Anybody who bitches about this being old news can suck it, as, like a mystical group of midnight cobbler-elves, all this stuff happens when I am asleep forcing me to jump in as the wave is dying. That said here are my theories, yes mine, E...

I love the old point and clicks. The hilarity of Larry Laffer, Roger Wilco and the Tentacles. The serious investigations of Gabriel Knight and George Stobbart. The ridiculous use-the-feather-on-the-human-cannonball-to-open-the-cage-to-get-t...

I can't figure out why, whenever she is mentioned in a Street Fighter related post, people act like she is the best addition to the Street Fighter cast. I must be missing something. Any people here who use Cammy in either Alpha 3 or SSF2...

Being a poor student I've not the resources to spend on luxuries like "housing" as I tend to spend my government stipend on video games and booze. As a result of this, I have taken up residence in a small recess beneath a large boulder, as ...

http://kotaku.com/gaming/rumor-confirmed/okami-wii-confirmed-312378.php This is great news. Not just because it is a great game, but it is a great game coming to a system that is PERFECT for the play mechanics. This is a PS2 port that Wii...
