15 Years of Wario, part 2

Originally posted on Kombo. For Part 1 of this feature, click here. Battered, Beaten, Never Defeated After enough fun (and spoiling others' fun), Wario rolled up his sleeves and got back to work doing what he does best: gathering treasure. With all his success up to...

I’m going to Hell for this…

...but I can't help but laugh at it. I totally didn't see this coming, even despite the video's title. Maybe laughing at stuff like this is why bad things happen. --LBD "Nytetrayn"

New Doritos and Canada Collide

So we finally have Doritos Collisions here in Canada... well, one set, anyway. Lucky for me, it's the one of the set that I most wanted to try, Hot Wings and Blue Cheese. And better still, I got them at a Mac's convenience store that was holding a special for two...

Rave Note? Death Rabbids?

Two things I love lately are Death Note, the anime specifically, and Rayman: Raving Rabbids. Well, sort of: I love the teasers and promos and such, but I've yet to play any of the actual games, much to my chagrin. Someday, though. It's a little old, but new to me, and...

No

If I ever met someone who was responsible for this, I would likely administer a beating right there on the spot. That's just going too far. --LBD "Nytetrayn"

Sonic Unleashed

Couldn't let the weekend pass by without saying something on this one. A little over a week ago, I got to report (you guys do follow my stuff on Kombo, right?) on SEGA trademarking a new name for a new game: Sonic Unleashed. Figured we'd hear something sooner or later...

Xenophobic Zoology

I'm really beginning to hate progress. What it seems to ultimately mean is, at least where television is concerned, is "you can't watch this, and so you can't discuss it with your friends." Is Hulu the way of the future? Not for me, it won't even let me watch...

Food for Thought

If the automobile had followed the same development cycle as the computer, a Rolls-Royce would today cost $100, get a million miles per gallon, and explode once a year, killing everyone inside. - Robert X. Cringely --LBD "Nytetrayn"

Brawl GET!

And a hell of a time getting it, too. No one in their right mind would've gone out in that snow for this. Which means I was already ahead. Too bad the damn TTC decided to take the night off on our route on the way home. Or something. Communication is so damn poor,...

Pickpocket Prevention

Hate thieves. Just really, really hate thieves. That includes pickpockets. Good article for letting you know how they work, and how to deter them. --LBD "Nytetrayn"

This is what’s wrong with the world today.

Challenge: See how far you can get before it starts to hurt. About page 11 for me, 12 is when it really started to make me wince. On a related note, who says video game NPC's don't have realistic AI? If this is any indication, they're VERY realistic. --LBD...

An Evening at Video Games Live

Originally posted on Kombo. Since 2005, gamers have been flocking to listen to their favorite video game music at Video Games Live. The concert is hosted by video game music composer Tommy Tallarico and has seen great success in the last three years it has toured the...

My Weekend in Gaming

So, over at Kombo, they've got this not-entirely unique feature going once a week called "What are You Playing this Weekend?" It's pretty much what it promises to be, and I suppose my choices are a little telling insofar as how behind I am on a lot of games: - Hotel...

Tubin’ – 2/29/08

Ok, been awhile since I've done a strictly "Tubin'" entry, but it seemed like a good time to bring it back. Something recently made me reminisce about an old show on MTV I used to enjoy, Cartoon Sushi. Ah, simpler times, when watching MTV was somewhat enjoyable. Oh...
