We’re back this week, as a ton of major news has hit in the past week. Paul starts going insane over doughnuts, Nintendo, and Max Dominic. There’s no gaming history or gaming flashback this week, but a ton of reader feedback. This week’s news items include: Nintendo in deep financial trouble Diablo III requires constant internet connection Tribes Ascend developer states free-to-play...

Today, friends, is a bit of special bottle that I have been holding onto for a little while now. However, as I have been offered employment today (for the first time in 8 months) it is a chance to celebrate and to crack open one of the finer things in life. Unfortunately, this is a one shot deal. ...

The new Morley mini series packs all of the classic Morley punch in an incredibly compact unit. I have used every traditional wah and volume pedal ever developed. Nothing gives me the response and tone that Morley delivers. Of all of the wah pedals to chose from I find Morley to be the most vocal. What so I mean by...

While taking an exit off of Route 128 at 3:55 PM today the voice of the late Dennis Youst boomed out as I turned the radio back on, the first words were "Bring back that Sunny day" from the Classics IV hit "Stormy", a kind of response song to "Sunny" two years later in 1968.  The Classics IV also...

Batman fans will have an orgasmic selection of skins to pick from in Batman: Arkham City, which will be available either as preorder bonuses or eventual downloadable content. From left to right, you have the Batman Beyond skin. The next skin is Frank Miller’s vision of Batman from The Dark Knight Returns. Next to him is the Earth-One Batman, and...

We are down to three. Unlike previous season, the first round picks from the 2011 NFL draft are being signed several each day at a rapid pace. The only three that have not inked a contract with their teams are Nate Solder (New England Patriots), Corey Liuget (San Diego Chargers) and Prince Amukamara (New York Giants). We are...

Last night on Hell’s Kitchen, the show started like the three shows that preceded this one: with the Red team in the dorm, pointing the finger at each other and blaming each other for the previous service loss.  This is getting old.  I’m starting to hope the Blue Team loses a service just for a change of pace. Elise quickly...

There are signs that developer Crytek is developing an all new first person shooter franchise, according to the LinkedIn profile of a gameplay programmer. The resume includes an entry for a “new IP, shooter genre, TBA title for Xbox360, PS3 and PC”. It also mentions another FPS project that he worked on for six months before the title was...

Ahh, the month of July has started and ended with Dogfish Head Craft Brewery. It seems unreasonable to think that a month ago was my interview with Sam Calagione, but time does fly when you're having fun. And it certainly has been fun! I think in July I have met more people, gained more readers,...

Tribes Ascend developer Hi-Rez has stated that free-to-play gaming is “inevitable” on the Xbox 360, and that their shooter will hit the 360 when Microsoft allows it. Tribes Ascend has been in development for the 360, but when it went free-to-play, its release for the 360 became delayed indefinitely. Tribes Ascend will be released for...
