Oh CNN you mighty mighty trolls you. There is no better way to get hits then to say something passionate and disagreeable. And if you focus your ire on young men? NERDY young men? Hell hath no fury like a nerdy dude mocked. William Bennett, the wonder dog who tried to set social policy under [...]

All right ladies. Are you ready for a smooth phonin’ experience? Are you busy being modern; working and having a family life? Do you need some tangle-free headphones to just ease the hassle of your harried feminine existence? Do you yearn for sleek lines and feminine colors? Are you a Japanese school girl and thus [...]

The Gears of War series is where grit began. Every time you’re playing a game with chest high walls and enough sand to create a new Tattoine you need to give pause and thank Gears of War. It’s also pure, concentrated dude. The guys in these games are all blown up hyper idealized versions of [...]

Dead Island, besides being programmed by at least one sexist jerk, is basically an excuse to watch women run around in bikinis. There are a lot of half-naked women running on the beaches and dancing in the shadows of the cabañas and traipsing through the sparkling clear water. However these women are all zombies and [...]

Attempting to read it like a normal person will probably hurt your brain and lead to repeated viewings of Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion. So I wrote this review that [...]

The original Deus Ex is one of the best games ever made. Ever. Even now, after eleven years it holds up. To my mind it’s the first “perfect” application of the sandbox genre’s gameplay aesthetic. Choose the play style your prefer and use it to follow the story–which is one of the sillier video game stories [...]

Man, this is kind of a bummer, not totally unexpected but still assy: Steve Jobs handed down his resignation over at Apple yesterday. He’s been ill for a very long time, and it was obviously taking its toll as we watched Jobs become more and more gaunt at each product launch. Let’s give the dude [...]

I’ve never played a dating sim. My knowledge of them comes exclusively from Megatokyo and Welcome to the NHK. Having played my fair share of RPGs I’m definitely familiar with some of the mechanics of dating sims, but I’ve never played a game where the primary goal was to get in some chick’s pants. Catherine [...]
