GTA IV Not Very Hilarious on SNL

On May 10th, Saturday Night Live aired a tepid Grand Theft Auto 4 skit. Niko and Vlad made murderous threats and swayed back and forth with their arms held out stiffly. I guess that’s supposed to be a commentary on game characters’ tendency to fidget even when standing still, though I don’t think it was […]

Games and Lazy Movie Directors

When I was all young and spry and stuff, I used to spend a lot of time on message boards. These days though, I exclusively hang out on the forums of Mr Jeremy Parish whenever I need to procrastinate.
The “Talking Time” forums are home to a number of interesting game-related conversations. A recent one: Why […]

Yahtzee On Chains of Olympus and Me On Yahtzee

Yes. Take that title in any sexual manner you like. I have a fever of about 100 and I’ve been cheated because I feel like shit, but I’m not hallucinating.
Yahtzee has posted his usual Wednesday rant, this time for God of War: Chains of Olympus for the PSP.

Yahtzee’s kind of an interesting individual because I […]

No More DDR Doubles

My short-lived experiment playing Dance Dance Revolution with two dance pads has been ended while I still have my skull intact.
I don’t think it’s a good idea to jump from pad to pad when both are situated on a hardwood floor. Especially a hardwood floor covered with cat hair. You wouldn’t know it, but that […]

Mega Man Art Galore

My dear friends, I realise that we’re often shafted by God, destiny, and the politicians that we elect. The world can be a dark, cruel place that is not kind to you or the peanut butter cookies that you bake (”God dammit, why did they all stick together?!”).
However, we must remain positive and remember that […]

Bonus Round, START!

I don’t know whose car Mega64 commissioned for this project, but they’re a pretty good sport.

Man, Sagat Tiger’d the shit out of that window.

Game Tattoos: Would’jya or Wouldn’t'jya?

Mike Fahey over at Kotaku.com is proudly flaunting his first gaming tattoo. It’s of the black mage made famous by the Final Fantasy series. It’s cool, hip, and assurance that he’ll need to sport long sleeves for ever summer job interview from now ’til he’s 65.
I like tattoos (though I have none), but I’m undecided […]

Movie Saturday!

Well, doesn’t that sound dynamic! In truth I just wanted to share this cross between Halo and Nintendo. Neither have much to do with Sony, but I think that stupid/funny game videos are fair game, no matter what the circumstances.

“Oh my Gooood what a beautiful daaaaay, lookit all the Pokemon!”

GameTrailers’ Star Wars Retrospective

Maybe I’m being a gibbering moron, but I think GameTrailers’ detailed retrospectives are a fantastic service to the gaming community. I’m a total game geek history and I have a soft spot for the retro stuff.
GameTrailers’ Star Wars retrospective is now on Episode III, which covers games related to Episode I. Confused? All you need […]

DDR Twice As Hard

Although I hardly choose to believe it, we’ve finally broken winter’s back. Birdsong and soft air now usher in a well-earned age of spring. I can actually play outside again, but I think I’ll keep up my Dance Dance Revolution regimen.
In fact, I’m thinking of using two dance pads. Am I ready for this monumental […]
