Yahtzee takes on Nintendo Fanboys.

This one is a classic. I had to share:

“Grand Theft Auto IV” appears to be living up to the hype.

Today was the day that the embargo on GTA IV reviews was lifted and all the non-exclusive reviews finally hit the net. So far GTA IV is racking up an incredible number of perfect and near-perfect scores. There are some minor flaws here and there, but the story, presentation, and greatly improved control schemes are . . . → Read More: “Grand Theft Auto IV” appears to be living up to the hype.

SEB Review: “Shoot ‘Em Up”

It all starts so simply: “Smith” (Clive Owen) is one bad-ass dude who is sitting at a bus stop minding his own business and enjoying a fresh carrot when a very pregnant and tearfully distraught young woman goes running by soon to be followed by a man with a gun who is obviously intent on . . . → Read More: SEB Review: “Shoot ‘Em Up”

Akusai reviews A&E’s new show “Paranormal State.”

Book reviews coming soon.

Well one advantage to having so much downtime at work is the fact that I’ve read more books in the past month than any other time in my life. Or so it seems.

Zero Punctuation reviews “Half Life 2: The Orange Box”

One of the other titles I’ve been looking forward to is the release of Half-Life 2: Episode 2 in part because of that game, but also because of the inclusion of the new Team Fortress 2 as well as the intriguing game called Portal.

Zero Punctuation reviews “Bioshock”.

Maledicta sends along this lesser OMGWTFBBQ!!!1!! review of Bioshock by Zero Punctuation from The Escapist.

That helps me feel a little better about not being able to play it. Think I’ll pull System Shock 2 out and see what the status of the fan project to upgrade it’s graphics is at the moment.
