Gov'ment Uses Games To PWN

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 28th of April 2008 - 11:13 PM ]

U.S. Spies Use Custom Videogames to Learn How to Think So this is something that is a few days old, but it was kind of buried. So I figured I'd bring it up here. The short and dirty of it is that the U.S. Government is paying for a few games to be built to help train spies and interrogators on their craft. So not just tactics, but quick thinking and analysis. Something that games have been proven to provoke a great response with. Read More...

2009 Movie PWNage Or Not

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 28th of April 2008 - 08:55 PM ]

Dragonball Teaser Poster So all you DBZ fans out there, looks like 20th Century Fox could be starting the promotions for the new live action film. As the movie poster thumb shows. Oh, let me say that the date on the side is not the release date for the film, just the date that this poster was found. Still no official word on if it is real or a fan made one based off the Japanese one that has been spread amongst the interwebs. Who knows any more in the day of photoshop where even real images look like they are photoshop fakes. Read More...

PWNing The Test Of Time

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 28th of April 2008 - 06:24 PM ]

Valve: No new Portal this year I'm sure that anyone and everyone has most likely heard of Portal. Yes? No? Well ya did now. But in any instance, there is a little more buzz going around about this game and it's previously announced sequel. What is it? Well the fact that it won't be coming soon. Which could be ok. Why do I say it could be ok, well look at their track record. Read More...

First online review of GTA IV hits the Internet

by Aaron BlueWolf72 Molloy [ Saturday, 26th of April 2008 - 03:59 AM ]

IGN posted their full review of the game this morning, which spans seven pages and ends in them awarding the game a 10 out of 10. "Hang in one area of the city long enough and you'll see how traffic and pedestrian flow changes as the day progresses. When it rains, people bring out umbrellas or shield themselves with a newspaper and run for an awning. Cops chase petty thieves unaware that walking down the street is Niko Bellic, cold-blooded killer. There's a perfect balance of mumbling doomsayers to remind you that the reason this city never sleeps is because it's full of nut jobs. Read More...

Brett Favre To Be On Cover of Madden NFL '09

by Michael Camacho [ Friday, 25th of April 2008 - 11:18 AM ]

Brett Favre announced at the end of his recent appearance on Letterman that he will be on the cover of Madden NFL '09, the franchise's 20th installment. Brett Favre is a 3 time MVP, a 7 time Pro Bowl selection and 2007's Sports Illustrated Sportsman Of The Year. Favre also lays claim to many NFL records, to include Career Passing Touchdowns (with 442) and Career Passing Yards (with 61,655). This is one of the NFL's greatest honors, but also one of the most cursed for active players as almost all the prior cover athletes have been injured or poor performances during the season they were on the cover. Michael Vick, Donovan McNabb, and Daunte Culpepper are among the few that had season ending injuries while featured on the cover of Madden. Read More...

PWNed My Opinion A Bit

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 23rd of April 2008 - 04:00 PM ]

More Good Stuff For MGO So it looks like my hopes for this are actually right for once. Here's another video that shows that the debacle with Konami and getting this whole thing set up should be worth it all. The video here is actual game play from a bunch of people in Japan. I had no audio when watching it, but from descriptions of it, I can see it being just a bunch of Japanese yelling and gun shots. So go ahead and watch the video and I'll continue below. Go ahead.

PWNage Of Spare Time

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 21st of April 2008 - 06:13 PM ]

Mario Theme Played with RC Car and Bottles This was just too awesome to not talk about. Once you watch it, you will be in total agreement. Or I will just be that jerk that said you would...please don't make me that jerk. :) Like the description says, a group of guys got together and actually set it up so they could drive an RC car and play the legendary theme using just wine bottles and metal things. It is really good up until it gets to the dual bottle section. Then it takes a little bit of listening to keep the theme going. Read More...

US Gets PWNed By Capcom

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 18th of April 2008 - 04:55 PM ]

Resident Evil O Wii Only In Japan So when I first heard of this game coming out, I got excited. Cause at the time, it was just announced that they were working on putting out the WiiMake of this good old GameCube game. If only they would have left it that way. The making it seem like it was coming out everywhere. Well things have changed and it is only slated to come out in Japan. That put a sad face on me. Read More...

New Study PWN Myth About Violence

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 17th of April 2008 - 08:37 PM ]

Kids Who Don't Play Video Games Are At Risk Ok, so I know this is always a hot topic for all gamers and the community. Hence why I am posting about this. It's actually a good point in our court. It is a study that has been going on to show that not playing games can contribute to violent and negative behavior. I know right. Sounds a little out there, but these two researchers have spent years looking at the lesser headline grabber than the norm. Read More...
