Happy Holidays!
Well, here's to hoping your last 3 weeks were pleasant. I had a great time just hanging out at the house and not traveling anywhere. During the vacation I played a lot of games and the one that really stood out for me on the PC was Flat Out 2. If you're a fan of Burnout 3 (uhh, not BO:Revenge) and an avid Excite Truck player, you will LOVE playing [...]
Whose Side Am I On Anyway?
Many of you responded to my previous post with the same thoughts that I had when I first heard of the Hot Coffee mod for GTA, "Why should the game rating be changed because a third-party hack changed the game content? That's crap! Don't blame the modders!" I totally agree with you 100%. In fact, I do not agree that a game's rating should change [...]
Oblivion Re-Rated = Bad News
The ESRB just re-rated Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion from Teen to Mature. On the surface the bad news for Bethesda is that fewer units will be sold to an M audience and it's a little bit of a black eye as well because of the "nude content introduced into the game from a third party mod". Sure, it's only for the PC version but the news blurb will [...]
CVG Interview Gone Sideways

UPDATE: CVG has made some corrections on the first part of the interview and the second part has been [...]
Blix Clouds That Kill Time
Here's a few really cool games to play this weekend. CLOUD was made by students, paid for by an Electronic Arts grant. I'm still figuring out how to consume the clouds! Make sure you use the right & left mouse buttons and press F1 for scant help. Kill Time is a crazy Japanese game where you have to keep your cursor from being captured by [...]
Daikatana GBC News Story
There have been several news stories about the Daikatana page and the pre-alpha download I put up. So many people downloaded the pre-alpha and Daikatana demo that they split the nuts off my Streamload account, so I set up the download to come from this site instead. Heh. Anyway, 1UP.COM wrote up a great little news story about the release and I [...]
Random Stuff
Just watched National Treasure and it was really great! Very reminiscent of The Goonies but for a more grown-up audience. You should definitely see it - and bring the kids if you have any. I sold my iPod within a week of posting that I'm selling it in my forums. And the person who bought it isn't even registered on the forums but is a lurker on [...]
