My Blog Posts
It's a twofer!
That's right folks, the theme for the day is two for the price of one! I've got a couple of thoughts for you to chomp on, a pair of comics, and a double dipping of news bits. A Couple of...
Hey folks, I got a problem and maybe one of you could help me. See I'd like to blog more than once or twice a week, but I don't always have the time at home. Now there are down times at work where...
Seeing as I've managed to acquire a modest readership, I thought it might be nice to change things up so you guys don't get bored. I've added two new features to the blog recently (What If,...
A few weeks a go I lamented the fact that my GameznFlix rental service was less than stellar. After receiving a copy of Saint's Row with so many scratches I was unable to complete the game, I...
We were having dinner with some of my wife's friends (they made us try veggie burgers...another story for another time) and my brother and sister-in-law this weekend. As the...
So I lost my Guitar Hero virginity this weekend...it didn't go well. I haven't been into a Gamestop in months, but my brother and I were bored and our wives were having a ladies night at my house...
"What if..." is a new feature where I explore a what if scenario related to the game industry. Though some of my ideas may be outlandish, this is not a rant or a spot to feature some fan boy...
Last Christmas, my mother-in-law got me a five-month gift subscription to GameznFlix. Though I ran into a few problems, I didn't really care because I wasn't paying for it. After the five-month...
So instead I'll give you a couple of random life updates... -Deadline week at work, so life is hectic -My students are giving their first speeches this week...turns out lecturing is easier than...
Two down, one to go. Today I finally got press credentials for the Sony press site. That means I'll be receiving all the same screens, movies, and press releases that GS does. A year ago, our...
I have a confession to make. Last night, I committed skateboard video game adultery. As a long time loyal fan of the Tony Hawk series (I played THPS 3 so much that the game actually told me to go...
Christmas is still more than four months away, but that hasn't stopped my family from making lists now. Since there are a lot of us (two brothers plus their wives), we usually draw names for...
Just read this little gem over at rottentomatoes.com. Apparently R Kelly is still defiling our ears with his Trapped in the Closet series of "songs." Check out this choice quote from the man...
Syllabus? Check PowerPoint Presentation? Check Crisply ironed shirt and tie? Check Yep, looks like I'm ready for the first day of school. The past few days I've watched as weepy parents dislodge...
Buckle up kids; you're in for a long ride... While it may seem that my life has been consumed with getting this webcomic started, I have done a few other things this summer. As a...
Well I registered for my webcomic site but it's going to take at least a week before it's ready. In the meantime I thought I'd give you guys an update. The comic is called "Learning to Swim"...
Well I got my friend on board and he's even up for writing a few strips with me. Unfortunately we're lacking a few key ingredients. First, we need a name for the strip ("College professor and...
Book Review Why is it that I'm on this video game website where I spend more time than I should, and I'm still a bit ashamed to admit that I read a book based on a game? My literary shame...
I just read the Q&A on the Beowulf game and it looks like it could be fun. I'm a bit wary because it's a license game, but I definitely like that they are going back to the source material. Ancient...
I've thought long and hard about doing this. Most on Gamespot know me as apwc , which I've always hated. See back in 2003 I created my profile on GS only to get the membership benefits. I didn't...
