5 Reasons Why LittleBigPlanet is Creepy

Let’s see what happens when I blog with a fever of 101. Magic, I’m sure.
Sorry the blog has been so scarce this week; on top of internet connection issues (sort-of resolved), I’ve caught Captain Trips (unresolved). I don’t understand how I can possibly feel so cold when my body’s burning and I’m submerged in a […]

In Summation: The Mega Man Series

Hey, lookit what I wrote.
It’s a summary of the Mega Man series and why Mega Man 9 will hopefully be a fresh new start for the Bloo Bomber. It’s…pretty ironic when you think about it.
This article sent me back to some of my old fandom haunts to perform necessary Drama Control. People sure take stuff […]

Games and Motion Sickness: Engage Pukery

A whole lot of us gamer-types are afflicted by motion sickness–or as it’s more correctly known when it’s game-induced, simulator sickness.
Call it what you want; either way it’s a big green bitch. Being prone to massive problems myself, I penned an article about the affliction for What They Play.

Why Do You Cheat, You Filthy Swine?

Happy Sunday. You can read the Bible, or you can read this feature I wrote about cheating in videogames.
Personally, I’d choose the Bible. More genocide and incest. I’m afraid my feature only contains trace amounts.

Inafune: No Mega Man 9 on PSN…Yet.

Damn it, Steaky McSteaklover next door is at it again, barbecuing his dinner in such a manner that its aroma wafts unto me. No, I’m not jealous, I’m merely concerned. All that red meat’s not good for the colon or heart.
Speaking of jealousy, the green-eyed rattler might bite at the hearts of some Playstation 3 […]

All The Promises (Sony) Made

In a move that’s already transforming fanboys from upstanding citizens to ruffled hens, GameCyte has published Promises, Promises, an article that looks at all the vows Sony has made–and broken–over the Playstation 3. The article covers a lot of ground, and also superimposed the head of SCEA’s Executive Vice President, Jack Tretton, on a […]

Finish Your Games, Young Man.

My latest feature for 1UP was subject to a billion delays and almost got lost in the limbo of the editorial queue, but it’s finally live and looking grand.
Are You Gonna Finish That? explores the billions of reasons why gamers today don’t tend to finish what they start. It seems as if we all have […]
