Gamer Grub: Fight the Free Radicals

With perhaps the most parasitic addition to gaming culture since Uwe Boll, I give you “Gamer Grub”.

Gears 2 Multiplayer Gameplay Footage Leaked

Two off-screen videos featuring Gears of War 2 multiplayer gameplay footage have made their way onto the web. Imagine that.

Broke Trek: Video from the Past Says Hello

The thing about Internet memes is that they sometimes come back. For those that don’t know what I’m talking about, the whole obsession with Chuck Norris is a meme, something stupid within pop culture that usually became a part of pop culture because it’s stupid.

Take-Two Concludes Internal Strategic Review, Resumes Business as Usual

Back in mid August, we reported that Take-Two had opened its boardroom doors to EA with the intent to jointly evaluate “strategic” *cough*buyout*cough* options. It appears now that those talks have concluded and that the two sides could not see eye to eye — or more importantly, wallet to wallet. Hit the jump for the [...]

Thieves Steal a Truckload of Games… Twice

In a story that I’m sure is incredibly embarrassing for the police forces of England, a semi carrying approximately $1 million in PlayStation 3 videogames (including GTA and Brothers in Arms) was stolen by a merry band of thieves.  The truck and its cargo were then recovered by police, who failed to capture the men [...]

Pwn Or Die’s All Your Base Election Mix

The folks over at Pwn or Die have put together a pretty hilarious edit of the classic All Your Base video, calling it the Presidential Election Edition. As someone who is absolutely scared shitless at the prospect of Sarah Palin anywhere close to the White House, this video really hit close to home for me. [...]

How Bill Murray Got His Groove Back

If Dr. Peter Venkman is in Ghostbusters III (which is supposedly being penned by scribes from The Office), we’ll have one thing to thank: the Ghostbusters game. Bill Murray, who has previously been notoriously on the fence about a third Ghostbusters flick, has apparently down an about face and says he’s totally down with GBIII, [...]

“Tits always in the pocket” with your iPhone.

Yes, you read that right. Courtesy of our Japanese friends in… well, Japan, comes an iPhone flash program that simulates mammories for your touching pleasure. If you think that sounds creepy, you’re not alone. It is creepy.

New Knight Rider Series: Holy KITT or Pile of…

So I check out the site today and see that our NBC Knight Rider ads have gone live. Depending on your location you may or may not see them. In fact, if this write up ticks off NBC execs, there is a pretty good chance that no one will be seeing them. I remember seeing [...]

New Game Releases: 9/22-9/28

A lot of games hitting stores this week, but none more exciting then Mega Man 9! Duh, we’ve all been waiting for this one. Other than that though, I’d say Brothers in Arms: Hell’s Highway looks good and Lego Batman should be fun. And the rest? Well, that’s up to you.
