Section 8: PS3 Review
2756 days
I know the term "hardcore" is thrown around a lot in the gaming community, often with negative connotation, but there's really no other way to describe Section 8 other than hardcore. It eats other "hardcore" first person shooters for breakfast. Any seasoned FPS gamer with countless hours of Halo and Modern Warfare play under their belt, ...
Yahoo! points out that online language is offensive
1766 days
Yahoo! Games has an article up today about the offensive language that many online gamers use when shooting one another and generally causing death and destruction. Lest you think that I'm going to tear the article apart, I will say up front that it actually presents opposing viewpoints and gives them proper weight, and seems ...
How Modern Warfare 2 fanboys are going to ruin video games
4774 days
Apparently, 2.5 million people purchased that stupid map pack for MW2. That's right, Activision has made over $37 million already for 5 new maps that should probably have been free. At the very least, the two remakes should have been because I'm pretty sure the game engine used in Modern Warfare 2 is only an ...
MW2 Map Pack: It’s just like the REAL Stimulus Package!
6798 days
This goes along with my article from last week. In that article, I discussed Modern Warfare 2's apparent failure to keep the player base occupied and coming back for more as time goes on. Well, Infinity Ward was concerned that such a thing was either going to happen or happening already, because they will soon ...

2803 days
Tom's Hardware has a post in which one Ryan Bowling (Edit: His name is Robert. Tom's reported his name incorrectly) at IW claims that MW2 has 25 million unique users. Yes folks, 25 million. The subtitle for this little gem of a mini-article is "Modern Warfare 2 is the major game for online gamers." First off, don't ...

Bad Company 2 and the Steam Pre-load controversy
6811 days
Let me start off with this: for all of you who are pissed at not getting a preload, get over it. I know, I know. It's obnoxious. We all know the Steam servers will be overloaded at release. It'll take 20 tries to get the download started, and we'll probably all start off with some ...
Gamesradar editors don’t know their history…
4829 days
Once again, Gamesradar has displayed a complete disregard for gaming history. I find this problem to be very, very odd indeed. On the one hand, their retrospectives and articles on the early days of gaming are usually terrific, and a great throwback for those of us who can remember playing games in the '90s (and ...
Co-op Gaming Cool Again?
0830 days
I don't know about you but I've missed cooperative gaming. Back when I was a kid, every other game was coop and those were, by far, my favorite. Yes, I love/loved Zelda but there was something rad about having a sleep over with your best friend and staying up all night playing contra together, despite ...
