So today at Gamescom Bioware revealed that Mass Effect 2 would be coming to the PS3 in January and reading articles about it at IGN and elsewhere I keep coming across comments in the talk-backs like ‘RIP Xbox 360′ and all of this ridiculous sort of smack talk back and forth from fanboys on either [...]

Scott Pilgrim Vs the World Movie Review
It isn’t often that I see a movie that I love so completely that I would change nothing about it and that I think absolutely perfect in every way. Scott Pilgrim Vs the World is one such movie. It is also probably going to be one of the most polarizing films in history and while [...]
What I Learned at E3
Things I Learned About Going to E3
My first E3 was quite the experience. I prepared as best I could but there are some things that just don’t occur to you until you are there. Some of them are things that you wouldn’t think of because you don’t know what is going to happen and others [...]
E3 Tweeting Goodness
In case you didn’t notice, Patrick is over at E3 this week and has been tweeting up a storm about what he’s been seeing. You can follow him here or wait for his nightly summaries of what is going on, what is sexy and if Kinect is retarded or not (spoiler: it is kinda fun).
E3 at The Buzz Media
Just a heads up that I will be attending and reporting on E3 next week. I will be updating every night of the show which runs the 14th through the 17th with a big postmortem after it is all over. If you want more up to the minute news you can check out my twitter [...]

Epic Fail or My Reputation Has Obviously Preceded Me
I’ve been playing video games since I was a kid, back in the 80’s heyday of the arcades. I played them as much as I could and after having the knock-off specialist Texas Instruments system during those days, I have gone out of my way to own the systems that I want. After the N64 [...]
Mai Shiranui – The Only Reason I Liked Video Games so Much
I know… I KNOW… that’s an incredible amount of side-boob right there, but you are witnessing one of the only reasons I even played video games back in the day.
What we have here is one of video-games most well known characters: Mai Shiranui. Mai has been one of the paramount characters in the King of [...]
Cyber Monday Gaming Deals
I don’t know how people get up early on the day after Thanksgiving and spend the whole day shopping. I can barely move after all the great food I ate the day before. That is why I appreciate online retails having sales on “Cyber Monday.” I plan to do a lot of my holiday shopping [...]
Politics Digging Hooks Into Gamers This Year… More to Come
Something new this election, that I haven’t seen before, is the direct focus on gamers that politicians and advertising agencies are taking.
A few days ago we got an email to post a new World of Warcraft machinima movie seeing who gets “Pwned” in Azeroth (here it is by the way):
Then we saw over on G4TV [...]
"Gamer" Stereotypes Slowly Changing
Having been a gamer for over 20 years it was not until recently that I began to notice gaming become more popular and main stream. While it is not something I’ve really spent a lot of time thinking about it seems pretty obvious that casual games have found a way to get people into gaming [...]

It was announced yesterday that YouTube (Google) is partnering with both Amazon and Apple to begin selling video games and music respectively.

Variety reports that Zach Snyder, the director behind ‘300′ and the upcoming adaption of ‘Watchmen’ has signed a 3 game deal with EA.
