I would play this game



When this Duke Nukem Forever trailer premiered at E3, I remember thinking "Hey, this might be worth the wait after all."

That was in 2001.

Edit: Holy shit, I hadn't even seen this new 2007 trailer. Surprisingly enough, it looks like they haven't wasted ten years of development time.

Great Odin's beard!

Odin Sphere is a pretty interesting action-RPG hybrid for the PS2. It's actually getting less fun the more I play it, but even so it's a unique title that may be worth checking out if you're into weird Japanese stuff.

Does whatever a spider can

I wouldn't tell you to go out and buy it or anything, but Spider-Man 3 really isn't as bad as you may have been led to believe. The editors did change the review to make it seem as though I liked it a little more than I did, though (not hugely, but I said it was "pretty fun" and they changed that to "a lot of fun." There's a big difference).

What's this? A Guitar Hero post?

I'm not sure which is weirder: That I'm in the top 20% on the Guitar Hero II leaderboards, or that the points differential between me and the first place person is 1.4 billion. Yep, my total score is pushing 7,000,000, and the top person is currently at over 2,100,000,000. How is that even possible? That's not a rhetorical question. I want someone to explain to me how it's possible to score that many points. If you play Free Bird on expert mode and score 100% with diligent use of star power, is it worth 50 million?

Shreddin' heaven

Is there really any reason to read another review of Guitar Hero 2?

Well, no, probably not.
