Why hellooooooooo beautiful!...rawr!
Remember this post? So I’m heading out of an apartment complex today, which is of course the birthday of our great nation that is kinda fucked up right now (and those issues are being addressed), and as I’m passing a dumpster, I see this oldie but goodie giving me the sad puppy dog eyes. For the uninitiated, this is a ‘93 model 34″ Sony Trinitron, A.K.A. The Cadillac of Classic Gaming Televisions. I paid $500 plus for one in ‘95, and it was worth every penny then. Now for free? I’LL TAKE IT! Continue Reading »

I'm afraid I can't do that Jewish Dave
Having never met Jewish Dave before, I must say that he probably is one of the most fantastic person(s) that I’ve never met before. I absolutely adore his writing. Ever since his first post, I immediately said “Wow, this guy is amazing!” Ask Knoxximus if you don’t believe me. However this time, I must say I cannot completely agree with his thoughts. I figure I should reply to his post in the form of a “counter-post” rather than a comment. This is due in part that he replied to my original comment, and then turned that reply into a post. So rather than skipping middle ground, I figure I can sum up my thoughts here. Additionally, I can have a larger work area to fully contain my thoughts.
Dave, I still love you. Continue Reading »

The Superman of Hooks
*deep breath*
HOPPED UP OUT THA BEEEEEEED…TURN MY SWAGG ONNNNNNNN….take a look in the mirror and say what’s up…..YEEEEEEAAAAAAAAH! I’M GETTIN’ MONAAAAAAAAAAY!! OHHHHHHHHHH!!!
I’ll be frank, I was never a Soulja Boy fan. I respect the dude’s hustle, his affinity for videogames, and I’m sure he would be a blast to kick it with (no homo), but I always felt that his music never had much substance to it…nothing to sink your teeth into. But, after his performance on the BET music awards, I finally get it. Substance has it’s place, but sometimes you just wanna yell some shit out at the top of your lungs, and Soulja Boy’s music fits that bill quite nicely. Continue Reading »

Hmm... Cool poster... Maybe McG wasn't such a bad choice...
Last night, I couldn’t sleep. It probably had something to do with the nightmares I’m still having, weeks later, after seeing “Terminator: Salvation.” Remember the scene in T2 when Linda Hamilton is holding on to the fence and D-Day blows her skeleton apart? That’s what it feels like thinking back to how bad “Terminator: Salvation” was. The following was originally written last night as a reply to Knoxximus’ post on “Transformers: Revenge of the other bad guy robot who is barely in the movie.” At his request, I’m expanding it a little and posting it here. WARNING: There are SPOILERS… Not that anyone should care…

Dang what a crazy week of news it’s been in terms of celebrity deaths. I’m not sure if it’s some sort of terrorist attack or what, but it is indeed crazy.
Let’s Recap: Continue Reading »

Now THIS is a MOVIE!!
THERE ARE NO SPOILARZ HERE.
I watched the 1st movie…the REAL movie…back in ‘84. I laughed. I cried. My jaw dropped when Spike said, “SHIT!”. Now THAT was a good Transformers movie. This Michael Bay shit is a mockery to all that is good about the Transformers. Never mind that Bumblebee is a freaking Camaro when newer models of VW Beetles are readily available…I understand this is America, and I’m sure Chevy ponied up for the publicity, but gawddammit, you just can’t put canon up for sale like that! Never mind that Devastator is like 7 robots instead of 5. Never mind that Jazz, the “brother” of the Autobots, gets smoked at the end of the film…it’s Hollywood tradition, I get that. But this shit right here?…I just don’t get it. Care to take a guess as to what this could be? Continue Reading »

SNK has long been in Capcom’s shadow. The casual fighters seem to just sneer at an SNK developed game. However, to the “hardcore” SNK usually equals FIGHTING GAME GOLD! If you ask my friend Jerry (who works at Game Crazy Nellis), I’ve been saying for the longest time “Garou needs to come on XBLA. Seriously.” Because honestly, it has got to be the most awesome 2D fighter that barely anyone has played. However, I’ve never had the privilege of playing the Dreamcast version, so the XBLA version will be a little new for me. But let me just share with you what I know from the arcade version that I know so well. Continue Reading »

Do YOU?
Oh yes…tonight SNK fanboys the world over will be feverishly refreshing their consoles in anticipation of tonight’s star offering: the Dreamcast port of Garou: Mark of the Wolves, A.K.A. arguably the best SNK 2-D fighter ever produced. Hell, in some circles, it’s considered the best 2-D fighter in existence. Heck, it’s even online enabled! Either way, it’s right up there with 3rd Strike I’m sure. But I’m not here to hype this release up anymore than I probably already have…I’m here to point out the humble beginnings of a trend that I PRAY reaches its maximum potential…making the Dreamcast the 360’s “Virtual Console”.

It knows me so well...
Just got done playing the newest entry in the Art Style series of games on DSiWare, “Art Style: Boxlife,” for a little while. Gotta say it was pretty awesome. I’m a paper foldin’ fool with that game. Before that i was having quite a bit of fun with “Mighty Flip Champs.” I also had a great time with “Bit Trip Beat” and “Art Style:Cubello” on WiiWare. Also really was loving my time with “Rocket Riot” and although the DLC killed “Arkanoid Live!” on XBLA, I was loving that too. Even played a great XNA Community Game called “Trino.” Believe it or not, I even had a little fun with “Trash Panic” on PSN (although it was a bit of a letdown… I thought I’d like it a lot more)… So, what’s wrong with this picture?
