Getting really excited to head out to the GDC again this year, and in a new capacity for me, so that should be fun.

I still haven't been to PAX, but this is my favorite conference of the year. I think its the access to the developers and designers and although the gaming press is there, they seem to be considerably less obtrusive. Not every day you can sit at a round table with Peter Molyneux.

Hi. Hiatus.

It was after a GDO meeting at Westwood College in 2007 that Josh and I discussed doing a webcomic or a blog about games. Lofty goals, big ideas... the sky was the limit. Why did we want to start something? It wasn't to compete with the likes of IGN or Kotaku. We never had any intention of that. We wanted a voice. A place to share our opinions and our passion about games. We wanted something to point to when we were asked in an interview, "What have you done outside of work/school that shows passion for games."

A Tale of Two Endings

Published February 5, 2010, 8:14 pm | by Bryan

I recently finished two games in the same night. The problem I've had recently is there are too many damn games to play. A great problem to have... but I buy them and play them so I can have something to podcast about or post (yeah, right). But because I'm about 75% deep into 6 games, it means I haven't been finishing much. But I am now at the place where UI'll probably finish literally 6 games within a week. Doing this provides an uncommon comparison for how games end.

Short version: Darksiders, good. Borderlands, bad.

Dante's Inferno Preview - Thoughts on the Demo

Published December 31, 2009, 6:15 am | by Joshua

EA has released a Dante's Inferno demo into the world. One of EA's new intellectual properties (not a sports game, or sequel), making this game a peer of Dead Space and Mirror's Edge. The key bulletpoints EA wants you to know are these:

-It's based on the epic poem

-It's a mature game (which equals nudity and gore)

-You travel through Hell

-Oh, and there are also breasts in the game

Holiday Cheer No matter what you celebrate this time of year, most people I know got some type of gift in the last week. So I ask, what did you get this year? Gift Card? New console? Games? Car napkin dispenser (an actual gift given at my Christmas celebration)? Snuggie?

The evil geniuses at Popcap have done it again. They have crafted another simple gaming experience that I fill my 'spare' time with. But this game has gotten a grip on me more than any puzzle game since Tetris. How do I know this? Because I've begun seeing the shapes and colors from the game in real life... and I think of that would be the best move when I see them.
