Legend of Zelda 2008 Web site is probably nothing, we still ask for speculation
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Unless Nintendo are planning yearly Legend of Zelda updates a la sports titles, this zelda2008.com Web site is probably nothing to get your panties wet over.

Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
When Soldier of Fortune: Payback was refused classification by Australia’s Office of Film & Literature Classification, people were up in arms.

What is the Winchester Mystery House you ask?! Why that was the same question I asked my family as I was dragged along with them on my vacation this past week. Now that I have been, I can honestly say it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be.

Category: Industry, Lulz, Xbox LIVE Arcade | Leave a Comment
Jeff Minter, creator of huge classics that I have no doubts no one has heard of, such as Attack of the Mutant Camels, Revenge of the Mutant Camels, and Metagalactic Llamas Battle at the Edge of Time (no, I made none of those titles up). His most recent endeavor, one that I had somewhat […]
