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 [...]

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 [...]
Saints Row 2: Bigger, Badder, Still a Little Buggy
October 16th, 2008 Seth I know that Bigger, Badder, Buggier would be a better working title, but it’s just not the case. Saints Row 2 is FUN. The graphics are updated, but the game still suffers from the tearing that its older brother had. To be fair, there’s a v-sync option in this game, too, but then you take [...]
Blu-Ray: “A Bag of Hurt”, Jobs Says
October 14th, 2008 Seth That’s one of the funniest quotes I’ve heard in a long time. Everyone’s so weird about talking about Blu-Ray, so when he said that, and described the pains, I was happy. I still want a hard-copy of an HD movie, but it apparently should’ve been HD-DVD who won, since more studios liked working with it. [...]
I’m Impressed
October 12th, 2008 Seth This is the trailer for the new Spider-Man game coming out, Web of Shadows. I like how the trailer was cut. I know there’s the overused Moonlight Sonata in there, but I still liked the action and the animation of the characters. What do you think?
Summer Movies Shifting to Fall Games
September 18th, 2008 Seth As the summer movie season seems to be wrapping up, I thought about what a good summer it was. There were several that I will probably want to catch again in the $3 theater, since it’ll be the last time to see them on a big screen. Tropic Thunder, Pineapple Express, Iron Man, Hulk, Mamma [...]
Braid: Wow
August 8th, 2008 Seth I downloaded the demo for a few Xbox Live Arcade games last night, and started playing one that I bought as soon as I finished the demo. It’s called Braid, and it’s a cross between a Mario game, a Prince of Persia game and an impressionist painting. Mario in that it’s a side-scroller, with jumping [...]
