    Sony vs. Sony?

    I forgot that Halo launched with the XBox. Now there's a launch title. I still play the multiplayer fairly regularly.

    I sold my book!!!

    Awesome. Good deal, literally. Now, it's time for Alex, Katie, Basil, and a few others to step it up! As far as management goes, word around town is that we're under new management. WB.

    Sony vs. Sony?

    Yet, the most important fact remains: no great launch titles for PS3. Maybe you can say the same for Wii if you don't count Twilight Princess. I could only fault Nintendo if they didn't reveal that those games you mentioned were being delayed in a decent amount of time. But as far as I can...

    Good news for you Good folks, I'm selling my PS3

    Is there a minimum bid or starting bid set? :P

    Question of the Day

    Yeah, same here. It's rare if I go to two movies in a year.

    Question of the Day

    Flags of our Fathers? It's out. I want to most see David Lynch's new film, Inland Empire.

    its out.

    November 26, 10:19pm US CST: Vision blurry. I've seen one commercial so far. I haven't touched a wiimote yet or seen any displays in stores (because I just don't go to stores that often, especially during the madness of the holidays). I can hear Twilight Princess speaking to me in my dreams...

    its out.

    I hear it's getting a fairly lukewarm reception. Alas, it seems the devs don't have the skills to pull off FP swordfighting. Someone will figure something out within the next few years though.

    Question of the Day

    When I think of Philly, I can never picture the sun shining there. I picture it gray and cold. :P This is based on the movie Unbreakable and how muted the tone and the cinematography was, based on parts of the Rocky movies, and based on the director David Lynch calling that place out as...

    Question of the Day

    Bloody droogs. Yeah, drive-by hackings, using the latest in pringles-can technology. Wait, something's coming across the crystal ball-o-vision, kwillz... I see you standing atop the ruins of a civilization, literally standing on piles of everything from vehicles to bodies. The sky is...

    Question of the Day

    London? How romantic. :P *looks into crystal ball of swirling futures* It's going to be rainy, and grey, and there will be these British guys who stand side by side and talk in a thick british accent, making fun of you with British humor and slang. Nothing will make sense to you anymore...

    Burger King can burn in hell!

    They at least need to make a game that exploits the craziness of the Burger King. And it not suck. They have some awesome chicken tenders...

    I hate this...

    Wow, that's quite the polemic/tirade/invective/vituperation/castagation/condemnation. And funny, too.

    its out.

    Question of the Day

    Roger Federer? Well, if you don't think an athelete can be considered an artist, then I'll go with Andrei Tarkovsky, the legendary yet relatively little-known Russian filmmaker. If you don't think a filmmaker can be considered an artist, then you're visually dead inside!

    10 best and worse

    Hmm, we had a contest to give away that Land of the Dead game a while back... Road to Fiddler's Green I think. I wanted to play that after how terrible I heard that game was. That might deserve consideration. But then there's that super-buggy truck-driving game where you can drive over mountains...

    I hate this...

    Yeah, it's a really backwards system. Once you get famous (and rich), you don't have to spend that wellspring of cash on things you always wanted because you get it for free.

    The Wii Countdown

    It's easy and perhaps lazy to base and argue what will happen on past trends, especially in something as dynamic as the vg industry. Sure, Nintendo has had 3rd party troubles for the last two generations. But what if it all changes this time around? You speak as if those past trends are static...

    Damn, this thing is beautiful

    Shoulda scalped it on eBay. Three of'em sold for over $15,000. :P

    The Wii Countdown

    The reason I think that we are seeing DS games that don't integrate the stylus control interface as heavily is because the DS has more legs to stand without it. Nintendo has always done well in the handheld market, and their software is usually high quality stuff. That's why developers who have...
