When I first started my career as a writer, I had one goal — to be a videogaming journalist. I wanted to review games, specifically, for some major Web site like IGN or GameSpot. I wanted to write for magazines like Edge or Games(tm). Never in a million years did I think that, rather than […]

COLUMN: ‘Game Mag Weaseling’: Mag Roundup 2/2/08
Category: Column: Game Mag Weaseling | Leave a Comment
I’m back! And holy cow, take my advice, don’t launch a new magazine! It takes a lot of work and you wind up forgetting to clean the litterbox too often!
I have a ton of mags to catch up on, all of which you’ll find under the cut; apologies I don’t write my usual depth, but […]

Darkrai.com goes live: Pokemon’s reputation continues to plummet
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
The Pokemon games are solid turn based RPGs. They also feature a world that is at times a clever parody of our own. Where humans in our world are obsessed with silly things like football and politics, the people of the Pokemon world are obsessed with Pokemon. Hearing the Pokemaniacs of the Pokemon games droll […]

Games of the week for 01/03/08: Nobody’s reading this edition
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
I hear that you’re all watching some bowl of soup in America or something, while we honest Britons do important things like using the Internet, looking at the Internet, and watching videos on the Internet. Because nobody’s reading right now, I can get away with saying things like "bum" and "nipples" on the front page.
That […]

Not watching the Super Bowl right now? Well, then there is a decent chance you may be an Animal Crossing fan. There are a lot of you out there, if recent activity on the c-blogs is any indication. So instead of watching football team "A" try to beat football team "B" in a game of […]

Ah, yes, a new cornucopia of GameSetLinks, headed by the New York Times talking about reviewers and gamers getting out of sync (ah, a subject I may have broached recently!), as well as another awesome installation of GameTap’s ‘No Country For Old Arcades’ features.
Also on the list - Platinum Games goes all Facebook-y, the […]

Japan to soon get a taste of ‘PlayStation 3 the Best’ titles
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Those discounted Greatest Hits titles are something that we’ve all come to expect from Sony, and more than a few of us have found them as the perfect opportunity to supplement our game collections with some gems, that for whatever reason, we had to pass on at the time. Well, it appears that for Japanese PS3 owners at least, […]

RetroforceGO! recording episode 35 tonight: Anything but the Super Bowl
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Sports are so totally boring. I realize some of you might like sports, but us? Not so much. Actually, there are two squirrels fighting over an acorn outise my window right now, and it’s a much more interesting competition to me than the thing that’s going to be on TV tonight. We talked about doing […]

Dtoider Silverhertz has made this awesome picture (along with two others). Steal the wallpaper sizes at the wallpaper collection page.
On Destructoid, Off-Raod Velociraptor Safari came out and we gave people some exclusive looks at Ninja Gaiden 2. On Japanator, a really lonely guy calls directory assistance over 2,000 times. On the C-Blogs, a few people […]
