Fat Ninja

 
Back in May I walked out of a Regal Cinemas theater cursing the name of Director Bryan Singer. I hated him for abandoning the X-Men movie franchise in its most dire time of need. I shook my fist in indigation at his decision to jump ship to work on DC Comics’ and Warner Brothers’ reimagining of the […]

They were out of hot pink, so I went with red.
I figured I’d take a stab at offering up some amateur attempts at reviewing some of the disc golf products that I use. To start, I’ll offer you my impressions of my current driver of choice, the Innova Star Valkyrie. The Valkyrie is my only […]

The source of all of our trouble 
After yesterday’s post, I thought I’d give our Congress the benefit of the doubt, and hear what all they had to say on the subject of violence in videogames. So, after listening into the entire Congressional Hearing, I have to say that, while there were a few minute kernels of […]

Is Battlefield 2 Training Tomorrow’s Terrorists? 
It’s no big secret that gaming is our generation’s black sheep of media entertainment. I can remember back in October of 2002, when the Beltway sniper attacks were topping the news, many an “expert” was called into the newsroom to examine the homicides and offer their “professional” opinions on who might […]

I got up early this morning to go get in a quick round of disc golf. My first round at Orchard Park was decent enough that I finished with two birdies. Still, thanks to my twin nemeses that are holes 8 and 9, I finished with a par. As I was leaving, I ran into […]

Classic platforming fun in a tiny package 
You have to wonder what gaming would be without Mario? I can only imagine it’d be akin to poetry without Walt Whitman. While not completely integral to the continued existence of their respective mediums, their absence would certainly have wide-reaching impacts. Lucky for me, we live in a world […]

The perfect gift for the World of Warcraft addict in your life. Order now and get a free catheter!
While we’re on the subject of unnecessary geek furniture, this particular item, called the Nethrone, is pretty awesome. While I realize that my gaming habit is expensive, I don’t know that I could ever justify the exorbitant […]

I’m not sure if I’m more surprised by the fact that someone thought of the “Powerdesk”, or by the fact that no one thought of it before them. At any rate, I think the concept of building your PC directly into a work desk is great in an aesthetic sense. Of course, functionality is another […]

The Mustached and the Furious
I remember many a days spent in my parents’ basement with my hands practically fused to my Super Nintendo controller, my tongue stuck out the left corner of my mouth, and my eyes dried open, screaming for the relief of just a single blink. The object of my most rapt of […]

“Judge me by my size, do you?”
Nintendo never really sold me on their Dual Screen (DS) system. I felt it was a niche product with niche features. I honestly believed that it wasn’t designed with broad appeal in mind and that there was a good chance I would be one of those who found it […]
