Tourcation 2012
*Please share this with everyone you know. Even if you can’t help, maybe they can, and I can’t afford to sleep on the road. I’m too sexy. A car will try to hit this.* Some of you might have heard that I do music from time to time (those times are “all” and “of the”). … Read more
The Value of Worth
This writer I really like, Jayme Allen, keeps telling me to write, but I’m so stressed out from everything in life that I can’t like anything I do enough to share it. But she is a fantastic writer, and you should follow her on twitter. She’s awesome. There’s a story I often tell about a … Read more
On Parents and Videogames
It’s easy as a hardcore gamer to overlook exactly how important the Supreme Court’s ruling that videogames fall under the protection of the first amendment and how it was just as likely to go the other way. To core gamers, it’s so simple to pull out examples of great art in our favorite medium; Shadow … Read more
Hail to the King, Dammit
Let’s get this out of the way right off the bat: Duke Nukem Forever was doomed long before Gearbox got their hands on it, and there was no way the game could possibly live up to our expectations. No matter what, DNF was going to feel subpar, and that’s without factoring in nostalgia. Agreed? Great. Now, … Read more
Through Color or Clothing or Creed
I was going to wait until Monday to talk about this, but I feel compelled to talk about it now. It’s funny, I’ve known the definition of “compelled” since I was five years old (obligation or force to do something), but until recently, I’ve never felt it. I went to school and later college. I … Read more
Kamp – The Rise of Childish Gambino?
Camp: /kamp/ adjective: Deliberately exaggerated and theatrical in style, typically for humorous effect: “the movie seems more camp than shocking or gruesome”. Ah, man. All that talk about comics and Batman, it’s nice to finally talk about some music. You guys know I’m a musician, right? I love music. A lot. And I love the Childish Gambino’s … Read more
Arkham City… I mean, Sex City, amiriteguys?
Oh yeah. Guess who’s back. The New 52 talks kind of got in the way of this, but a couple of weeks ago, after months of waiting, Batman: Arkham City was released to some pretty great reviews, and I took a midnight train going anywhere (Best Buy) to get a copy on release night. A … Read more
Batman: Spreadsheet City
Some of you liked the spreadsheet / achievement guide I made for Deus Ex a while back, so I thought I’d share the one I made for Arkham City too. Like I mentioned before, it’s best viewed on iPad in Numbers, but I guess all the functionality still works for everything else. Also, maybe you … Read more
#2 – Cyclops Saves the Day
When you think about it, Cyclops is only one of Superman’s powers, and he can’t even control that. Way to fail, Summers. The End
How Do You Do, 52? – Where the Reboot of Batman Turns Sour
***LIKE BEFORE, THERE WILL BE SPOILERS*** Tuesday, I ran out of space to talk about the new Batman (I guess I technically did on this post), but before I get into that, let me tell you that not all of the New 52 are horrible. If you’re wondering, I’d add Swamp Thing, Wonder Woman, Action Comics, … Read more
