Thought of the Day: Gaming, 17 Jun 08
As promised, today's Thought of the Day: Gaming inducts yet another unwitting victim onto the Wall of Shame. Wait...what am I talking about with this "unwitting" business? Scratch that; all these...
It's been a comfortable length of time since the last one, so Thought of the Day: Gaming is proud to unveil a new Wall of Shame entry. Once again, we see someone make a completely indefensible...
Yesterday evening, MGU played Team Fortress 2 for Game Night. I'm happy to say that we were undefeated, although one engagement in Granary (a map) was close. However, the whole session brought...
I've been thinking about this issue with EA and the NFL. I'm talking about issues in which I have zero expertise, so if you do know about this stuff, dear reader, please use the "Comment"...
How prophetic. Just yesterday I posted an article right here regarding EA and unfair business practices. (I include a link in case you have an aversion to scrolling down.) Well, actually...
I've got another forum exchange for you, but this time it's not a Wall of Shame entry. It does, however, prove a point and illustrate some concepts. Somebody posted a thread entitled "its...
A recent thread got me thinking about something that's annoyed me for a while: Some people categorize third-person shooters and first-person shooters as distinct sub-genres. I think this is...
Following comments from certain individuals , I decided to write a review of Army of Two. Since this is my first review, I posted it here, to get some feedback before I publish it on GameSpot...
I just got Army of Two. More properly, I sent my assistant out to get Army of Two for me; that got me some weird looks. It sure is satisfying to open up my GameSpot Wish List, and click "Move...
Guess what. I've got another forum argument. I promise this is the last one for a little while, as Thought of the Day: Gaming is quickly turning into my Wall of Shame for the 360 forum. What...
For this Thought of the Day: Gaming, I'm posting up another forum exchange. Note that I do not call it a "debate" or "argument," because it's not. It's me and a bunch of other forum regulars...
Recently on the 360 forum, a new 360 owner asked, "What are 'gamer points'?" That's a simple question, but one that I found has a lengthy answer. NOD Grindking liked my...
No blog is complete without a forum debate. You may think I'm being cocky throwing this up here. Let me assure you, dear reader, that had you seen this level of stupidity, you would have done...
I finally put up a banner, after what...12 years or so of being on Gamespot. It's a rip off Mad Men . It's a work in progress. If it sucks hard, be a pal, and let me know.
A forum poster recently asked what everyone's favorite Xbox Live games were. Someone responded with Doom, and I quickly agreed. Doom was just a phenomenal game. Gaming historians might...
Check this out: My Wish List . There's about 50 Xbox 360 games on there. Now, you know what would be nice? If I could prioritize them. Like, put in a number from 1 to 10, saying how much I...
Have you read Joe Dodson's new review of Army of Two ? I have, and without even playing the game, there's something about the review that annoys me. I thought about posting this on...
Forum post of mine today, which I think works for Thought of the Day... SmokieX says to me recently: "I'm a sucker for the limited collectors edition." God, tell me about it. I too am a...
This is annoying. There's this contest that begins on 12 Feburary, yes, two days from now. You enter, and you get a couple months to amass 1,500 Gamerpoints above your existing total. The...
Despite being a GameSpot reader since the Quake (1) days, I've never actually written anything in my GameSpot blog here. And I really can't think of a better issue to start with than the Jeff...
