I just paid $5 for virtually nothing. It makes my avatar look cool. It’s a developer/publisher I’m happy to support with my dollars, but it’s something I can’t really ever interact with, just display. I paid for an outfit to make my Xbox Live avatar look like a character from a game series I like; [...]

Now I Want to Get Back into GTA
July 27th, 2009 
Seth I’ve seen several of these before, but this one had me laughing out loud several times. It makes me want to get back into the game to screw around more.
“X-Men Origins: Wolverine”, A Surprise on Two Fronts
May 5th, 2009 Seth I’ll start out by saying that I never watched the leaked “work print” of the movie that came out several weeks ago, which seems to be the source of most of the trash talk, since it was only released four days ago (from posting this). After hearing all the negativity, I had pretty low expectations [...]
Good Game Trailers II
April 27th, 2009 Seth I apparently like game trailers with interesting music choices, like in my first post like this. This is an old one, but now, after starting watching House, I remembered this one. If you know the show, you’ll probably know why. Do you like this one? What trailers stick with you?
“House, M.D.” & Bargain Bin Specials
April 23rd, 2009 Seth I’m slow on some issues. Many of my friends, including probably the biggest proponent, Regan, have been hounding me to start watching House, M.D. I kept saying, “I have too many shows already. I can’t get involved in another.” This was a mistake. I recently got Season 1, Disc 1 from Netflix, and watched the [...]
Same Big City, Bite-Size Gameplay in GTA: Chinatown Wars
March 18th, 2009 Seth Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars came out for the Nintendo DS this week, and I was blown away. Let me start by saying that the game is set in the Liberty City of GTA IV. While it’s not COMPLETELY street for street, it IS an amazingly accurate portable version of the city. I was laughing [...]
Good Game Trailers
January 14th, 2009 Seth I like them. Epic has done a great job with their Gears of War ads. I was showing Angie last night and she liked them, too. I took that as a sign that they were a little more than an average gameplay trailer, especially since Gears is NOT her type of game. The first one, [...]
The Goose is Getting Fat
December 18th, 2008 Seth Right now, I have very few Christmas gifts bought. I have nearly everyone on my list picked out, but have only actually purchased/built/etc around 40% of the presents. I do this every year, and it’s never a problem, but this year, watching all the morons at the intersection of Burkhardt and the Lloyd, it makes [...]
Fallout 3 Quick Impressions
October 31st, 2008 Seth Holy moly. Fallout 3 is MASSIVE. I’ve been playing it now for a few days, and I feel like I’ve barely scratched the surface on seeing what there is to see. I’m playing the game as a sort of rogue character. I will steal when necessary, but won’t hurt an innocent person or bystander. I [...]
