I’m lucky in that I’ve latched onto an amazing woman for my wife. Besides her phenomenal cooking skills, her excellent brain, and her beautiful body, she also happens to be a lifelong gamer. She honed her skill on the Sega Genesis, playing Sonic the Hedgehog games. More recently, she’s been addicted to various MSN “casual” […]
And now, I’ve acquired No More Heroes
It is in hand. Well, in bag, actually. And I’m going to need it. It is currently a balmy 2 degrees in the great wasteland of central Iowa, with a blistering -15 degree wind chill and an accompanying frigid wind that cracks at the air like an arctic tundra. I really need this winter to […]
No More Heroes has acquired my interest
Violent Wii-exclusive action title No More Heroes by Suda 51 has been garnering some rather excellent reviews since its release this week. They are compiling some of the more impressive scores over at Evil Avatar. A 9 (out of 10) from GameSpot. A 4 1/2 (out of 5) from Gamepro. Perfect 5 from X-Play. I […]

Ding! Back!
Looks like Scott made a decision, and Ding! will return to the web sometime soon. However, instead of being a Sunday feature on PvP, it’s going to be a Tuesday/Thursday feature over at a new gaming site called Crispy Gamer. Huzzah!
Possible return of Ding!?
Scott Kurtz has gotten re-addicted to World of Warcraft, and in his obviously raid-induced state of clouded thought, is considering resurrecting his old MMO-based single-panel comic Ding! as a Sunday color feature. Please join me in letting Scott know that anything new from him is welcome in our cozy little webcomic universe.
Finally finished Metroid Prime 3!
I beat the game last night, with 100% completion, meaning I obtained all of the cherished suit upgrades, missile expansions, and energy tanks. I spent a sum total of 21 hours, 34 minutes in the MP3:C universe, and enjoyed every minute. The last boss – Dark Samus and the stolen Aurora unit – were incredibly […]
A brief interruption: Child’s Play
I’m pushing aside the rest from words for a bit to remind everyone (or inform those that are completely unaware) of the Child’s Play Charity that is currently underway. I’m especially excited for this year because a new location has been added: the University of Iowa Children’s Hospital. That link takes you directly to their […]
If wishes were horses, I’d pick up an ATV
So, I’ve been gradually removing the games from my wish list lately as review scores come out and my anticipation for certain titles wane as real gameplay stories begin trickling in. After checking out the tracklist for Guitar Hero 3, I no longer have an interest in that game. Battalion Wars 2 is getting a […]
Nintendo might be hoping that Battalion Wars 2 won’t sell well
GoNintendo is a Nintendo fan blog I read frequently because Rawmeat Cowboy will post absolutely anything there that is even remotely Nintendo related, and I can’t get all the content he manages to post in a single day on a single site, anywhere else. Today, RMC posted an “End of Day Thought” regarding the complete […]
