Angelina & Brad … Making a Video Game?

Am I the only one that hates them as a couple? Actually, I just hate the Brad Pitt half of the couple. I apologize to females everywhere if I’ve just broken some kind of secret pact.
Regardless, the hawtz0r duo are campaigning to create a video game together in order to raise awareness and funds for […]

Games Straight from Japan to Otaku Everywhere

I don’t want to hear any more belly-aching about how the Japanese have cooler, more fun, weirder game titles than we do in the stodgy FPS-obsessed west. No more whining you hear?!
Sure you can import Japanese systems and games from Japan, but that takes a deeper pocketbook than many of us are able to […]

Call of Duty 2 Calls In A Strike

Call of Duty 2 server admins are turning out to be a united-ly cranky bunch, and are sick and tired of talking to a brick wall when it comes to trying to cut down on the rampant cheating that has crept into the online game. They’ve given Activision and Infinity Ward until December 16th […]

Poll Results In: How Is Our Website?

The results from the last poll are in, and to the question: “How is our website?” the lovely readership has buzzed in with their thoughts.

Parental Controls Coming to PS3

Looks like Sony is jumping on the parental controls bandwagon for gaming. Previously, parental controls were offered on the PS2 for movies, but were missing for games. The PlayStation 3 will be another story entirely, as Sony Entertainment has at last, succumbed to others’ examples (i.e. Microsoft Xbox 360). Parents out there will breathe happier […]

Sony to Present PS3 at CES

The rumor mill is working overtime these days, so it’s possible that the following is entirely unfounded. Unfounded, but always interesting. And knowing Sony, entirely plausible as well. If true, it looks like the company is looking to set up a 12,000ft “stand” at the Consumer Electronics Show in January 2006, to promote their […]

FPS Doug Is Like Looking in a Mirror

Your humble editor loves FPS games. Loves them with a passion and obsessive need to kill teenage boys online with a female avatar and a name like Blossom and Rose Petal.
FPS Doug from PurePwnage.com loves FPS games as much as I do, he also has a potty mouth on him that reminds me, sadly, […]

1Up Provides Alternative $500 Items to XBox 360

If you waited in vain for your XBox 360 outside of Best Buy on the 22nd, you weren’t the only one left clutching a wad of cash. And now that you’ve scraped together the cool $500 or so that the console would have cost, why put it back into your bank account? Spend […]

CSI vs. GTA

You all know me so well! I received three separate tips for this story, and it’s one that I had been planning to giggle about on my own regardless. I’m a forensic chemist by training and watch CSI (only the original, I can’t stand NY or Miami, bleh) with a smirk and a […]
