A Clash of Mediocrity
Ok, I've been kicking this around in my head for a while, and I'm actually a bit tentative to give voice to it, from fear that the earth will be torn asunder by the braying voices of the...

Random and garbled opinion
 It's kind of like when you know you're guilty of something, you'll vehemently deny it simply because the truth is too embarrassing or shameful to confront. The law or social standard for what...

COD (piece)
I must say, Call of Duty 2 has done a wonderful job of simulating that whole Red Army meat grinder thing. I just started playing the game again, only on Veteran difficulty this time (because...

Espetus
Ok, if you live in San Francisco, Oakland, San Jose, or really anywhere in the Bay Area, or if you plan on ever visiting anywhere near the Bay Area, or really if you ever plan on taking a...

Weltschmerz
This is my new favorite word. (Yes, I watched some of the spelling bee.)

Wolverine needs his own movie.
Though my weekend wasn't quite as eventful as Jeff's, it followed a similar vein. I didn't quite get around to kicking the squeaky wheel, but I did play a helluva lot of Tomb Raider. Best yet?...

Blood for monies
The abridged version: Exposing your 360 to Hitman: Blood Money is equivalent to spousal abuse...in most states. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the point of releasing a demo to build hype and...

Wo ne?
Someone, at this very moment, is playing Street Fighter in the office, and it fills me with envy. Oh Ryu, why must you taunt me with your Hadoukens?

GRAWarg
I finally got a chance for some hardcore alone time with my new love child, and it was good. GRAW was on the agenda, and GRAW was what played. I runned, I gunned, I got repeatedly whacked by...

360 woes
Cruel and unusual punishment is defined thusly: being forced by some great and intangible threat to travel to Las Vegas so as to watch a weekend-long, action-packed amateur volleyball...

Depeche Mode and stuff
I went to my first major concert last night, seeing Depeche Mode at the Shoreline. My interest in music has waned since moving out here, as there are absolutely zero good radio stations in the...

Happiness, sunshine.
Copyediting here at GameSpot often puts me into the unique position of previewing a game without any kind of context or visual accompaniment. I'm simply given the copy in a Word document, and...

Hail to the King, baby.
As a man who normally avoids the horror genre, and all things associated with it, on principle (scary movies cause me to weep like a child), even the thought of reading a Stephen King novel...

Semagoedivsevolnatas!
It's hard to read any reputable "news" sites anymore without stumbling upon the seemingly ubiquitous controversy surrounding the influence video games have on our precious, precious children....

The Crack is back...
 Ah Everquest...oh, how I've missed you. On a whim, I reloaded Everquest 2 this weekend, thinking I'd give it one last whirl to investigate all the good things I've been hearing now that it...

PVP fun
Perhaps Godfather has obliterated my last thread of moral fiber here, but I find this video and the story behind it, beyond hilarious. Now, I've been playing MMOGs for a long time now....

Family Matters
 When I first sat down to play The Godfather, I don't think I was prepared for how graphically violent the game was going to be. The game does a most excellent job of rendering a body being...

Keep on spinnin'
So as my adventures in DDO are coming to a close, having aspired to the most-respectable level of 3 (well, 2/1 if that makes any sense), and I must say that the experience has been altogether...

Road rash hurts.
Ok, so does anyone else think MotoGP '06 is unbearably difficult? Admittedly, I am not one who spends much time with so-called realistic racers, having been more fond of the Spy Hunters and the...

Stabbity?!
So apparently, a rogue is not a rogue. I'm coming to realize that this postulate is the fundamental reason I've been having such difficulties coming to terms with and/or reconciling the...
