Manhunt 2 Debate Benefits All Concerned

I don’t get all the fuss. I really don’t. Every time I see a headline plastered with some raving slogan in support of, or railing against, Manhunt 2, I quickly press delete before my brain even has a chance to formulate the usual “oh god, not that again…” response. We’re not even […]

Safe Refuge for Online Female Gamers

I’ve personally never logged on to Xbox Live. Tales of assholes and jerks aside, I’ve just never been interested in it.

Xbox Live Will Be Down for Maintenance

All of you Xbox Live subscribers, take note. Microsoft is bringing down the online network for approximately four hours on Monday, September 10th, starting at 2:01AM PDT.
Hopefully this won’t be the end of the world for most people as well, there’s such a thing as sleep (so I hear anyway). But, there will be the […]
