Wow, this sucks. I never even got to go. And aren't they supposed to have really good hot dogs there? Or is the term "coney" for a hot dog and Coney Island unrelated? Regardless, wow. This is one of those things I never thought would close. ...this also makes that one...

Save Us

Been spreading this around. One of my biggest beefs with games over the years, particularly as saving has become more commonplace, is the way some developers implement it. Particularly when it is done poorly. Over at Gamasutra, David Sirlin put together nice feature...

Perhaps it's a mark of too much time on my hands. Or perhaps she (and Yahoo) just make it too easy. Believe it or not, I have a goal with this. A stupid one, perhaps, but a goal nonetheless. I hope that there will be enough of these to create an animated gif from. And...

My Thoughts on Bionic Commando Rearmed

My thoughts on Bionic Commando Rearmed. Truth be told, I could have gone on more, but this touches on the important stuff. Also, in looking back for an earlier story for someone who had no idea there was a next-gen sequel coming until today, I came across this. Man, I...

Shifting Demographics

Just came across this story about the WWE, and it made me laugh a little. For those who don't want to click and read, the title says it all: "WWE's Shift Towards Families... and Away From Us." See, years ago, I noted some parallels between video games and wrestling....
