Epic Street Fighter IV Trailer. Really.

The latest trailer for Street Fighter IV is made especially interesting by its music. I have nothing against Faith No More, really. I think I even have Epic on my iPod. Just…what an odd combination.

MGS Retrospective: MGS2 Controversy

I’m operating on a strange wavelength today. It’s Memorial Day in the States, but not in Canada. My brain’s in limbo between work and vacation.
GameTrailers has the latest part of their Metal Gear Solid retrospective ready. This week: Metal Gear Solid 2, featuring the series’ most hated prettyboy, Raiden.

His naked humiliation does not […]

Guitar Hero World Tour Trailer is Uncool

Oh yes, I just used that word. Uncool. My ancient lingo sends you careening back to the grey, damp school yard. Remember how you hid from the taunts of bullies under the bright plastic slide, your knees marked with gravel?
No…?
Zounds, my spell is broken. But I’m still using the word to describe Activision’s new trailer […]

“Lupin Gear Solid” on MSPaint

Mischievous young crime fighter Lakupo has once again pointed out a fandom movie worth watching. Thankfully, it’s less unsettling than other fandom videos I’ve posted on this blog.
In fact, it’s a combination of Metal Gear Solid and the intro for Lupin III. Fitting combination, really.

I have a bad habit of pronouncing Lupin III’s name […]

Shaun White Snowboarding Teaser

GameTrailers has a short teaser clip for Shaun White Snowboarding, due out this winter.
Mind you, this isn’t your average snowboarding game. Do you like snowboarding? Do you like MMORPGs?
No, the game isn’t about smacking down the Horde with a Burton. Actually, I wrote an extensive preview for Shaun White Snowboarding in the May edition of […]

Game Commercials of Olde Versus Today

At a message board located somewhere over the rainbow and to the right of Candyland, I’m engaged in an interesting discussion about game ad campaigns in the past, and how they relate to the present.
The ’90s were probably the most memorable time for game ads. Technology was advancing quickly, but people were, for the moment, […]

GTA IV: Will It Blend?

What’s the best console on which to enjoy Grand Theft Auto IV? The Playstation 3? The Xbox 360? The real answer is a Blendtec Blender.
The white-coated Tom Dickson has made Blendtec Blenders famous on YouTube by blending anything he can get his hands on (keep your babies close). This has included several games—and even consoles—over […]

Metal Gear Retrospective: The Important Part

GameTrailers just released part two of their Metal Gear retrospective. The majority of the video studies Metal Gear Solid, arguably one of the most important games on the original Playstation—and probably one of the most important games of all time.
It’s always a lot of fun to go through retrospectives and attach your memories to certain […]

Crashman Love Video (NSFW)

I have a friend named Lakupo. Well, I think he’s my friend. I’m not sure if anyone who truly values my well-being would make this video public.

Crashman is totally just an ordinary robot programmed by Dr Wily. Or is he?
This is actually funnier than I’m letting on. I know people who take their gay robot […]
