Microsoft Natal Takes on First Person Shooters?
When the action flick Minority Report hit the silver screen, I remember being wowed by the futuristic operations center which was the main focus of the movie. People moving information from screen to screen with a flick of the wrist, looking up suspects and whizzing through data by doing nothing more than moving their fingers. [...]

SG News and Reviews!
Due to the powers that be, my text review on “Seduce a Suicide Girl” was posted today and you can find it here on their website. It also looks like I will be covering the Consumer Electronics Show for SuicideGirls.com this January! I had a blast last year at CES when I was “just a [...]
Jack Thompson Sues Facebook for 120 Million
It looks like the loopy disbarred lawyer Jack Thompson just can’t help himself. For those unfamiliar with his plight, he’s been a thorn in the side of the gaming industry for years. Before he got his law license revoked he was known to launch crusades against video game violence.
Now, license-less and [...]
Get Your Geek on for Free at CES 2010
In this day and age we’re all about saving money. However, our penny-pinching ways don’t mean we have to miss out on all the technology we love; to do so would be denying our right to geek out! This coming January there’s an event specifically meant for geeking out, and registration happens to be a [...]
Cops Caught Playing with Criminals Wii During Police Raid
It’s no joking matter when police conduct raids of criminals houses. However, in the case of the home of this specific drug dealer, the joke was apparently on him.
The cops storm into the ex-con’s home at the crack of dawn, ready to search for evidence. Suddenly the urge to play video games overcame some of [...]

Bethesda Sues Interplay for Selling Fallout Trilogy
The original Fallout games laid the foundation for Fallout 3, so I was definitely thinking "WTF" when I read that Bethesda Softworks has filed a lawsuit accusing Interplay of trademark infringement over its sales of Fallout Trilogy. Apparently Bethesda and Interplay had an agreement whereby Interplay was allowed to continue to make and sell the [...]
Gamestop Thief Mad for Madden
Every now and again we geeks hear about the strange and outlandish things people do for video games. The most recent “WTF” is one particular football loving thief who knocked off a Gamestop in Jacksonville, Florida this Monday. Did he simply force the clerk to empty the cash register like any self-respecting criminal would do? [...]
The Pirate Bay Sells Out – The Final Verdict
It’s fun to charter an accountant, and sail the wide accountancy…
Monty Python quotes aside, one of the reasons I have been scarce of late is due to my new gig with GameGirl.com, and today I’ve put my thoughts on the recent TPB news there.
What do you think about the Pirate Bay tossing their ideals out [...]
Break in Kojima Countdown – Metal Gear Solid 5 Confirmed?
Knowing that Hideo is not only the creator of the Metal Gear Solid Series but also king of suspense who is an expert in giving blue balls (or ovaries) to most gamers, I decided to check the Kojima Productions site again today. There were the letters “P” and “R” flashing across the screen, the newness [...]
First Alien vs. Predator 3 Screenshots!
One of my favorite games of all time was Aliens vs. Predator 2. I loved being the predator and spiking heads up against walls with my spear gun. AVP2 ranks right up there with Battlefield 2 on my all-time list of FPS games.
So the recent leak of screenshots and information about Aliens vs. Predator 3 [...]
Conficker Strikes – Most Advanced Virus Yet?
Come midnight tonight, the Conficker Virus is set to detonate. Directly from Yahoo News:
What happens come midnight is a mystery: Will it turn the millions of infected computers into spam-sending zombie robots? Or will it start capturing everything you type — passwords, credit card numbers, etc. — and send that information back to its masters?
No [...]
The AIM FishBot Phenomenon
When you were a kid and discovered the joys of call waiting and connecting calls, did you ever prank call two different people by dialing them both, connecting them together, and then simply listening in as they accused each other of calling? Hilarity usually ensued, as either they eventually came to the conclusion that [...]
Real life Murders in the Name of Video Games? WTF.
I have a killer headache that has been alleviated by not aspirin, but an XBOX game. Isn’t it incredible how games allow you to escape your pain? And yet, people all over the world, (and some parts of U.S) are being denied this escape.
“Life is a video game. You’ve got to die sometime.”
Words from [...]
