$10,000 And A Trip To Liberty City
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 26th of March 2008 - 05:03 PM ]
GameStop's Grand Theft Auto IV Contest Could you use 10K? I know I could. I could also take a trip to NY again. You can get in on possibly getting this just by going to the GameStop site, link below, and either entering in via their web site or by texting your answer to the question they have on the site. Either will get you into the running. You can also pre-order the game if you haven't already. Read More...

Mario.
by [ Wednesday, 19th of March 2008 - 09:46 PM ]
    Mario. You say the name and almost anyone will instantly associate it with what is arguably the most recognizable character to ever hit the videogame world. The theme song is iconic, his features are undeniable, and slap the name on any product almost guarantees instant success. But how much do we know about the man besides his love for a variety of colourful mushrooms and blondes in dresses (hey, sounds like a great Friday night, yaaaamean?? *wink wink*)? Read More...

Court upholds ban on Minnesota video game law
by Aaron BlueWolf72 Molloy [ Tuesday, 18th of March 2008 - 03:04 AM ]
So just to update you Minnesota attempted to get a law passed and it failed.  So they thought "hey" lets appeal and well that failed to. The Minnesota law would have imposed up to a $25 fine on minors younger than 17 caught buying or renting video games rated "M" for mature or "AO" for adults-only, under the video game industry's rating system. You would think other states and cities would pay attention to this but "this week, a committee in Massachusetts is planning to consider a bill, endorsed by Boston Mayor Thomas Menino, that would--you guessed it--restrict violent video game sales to minors" source:  News.

The Road Warrior Said It, So It Must Be True
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 13th of March 2008 - 09:31 PM ]
George Miller, Cory Barlog Working On Mad Max Game Maybe it is just me, but I think this is awesome. Mad Max the game. I mean come on. If you haven't seen the film, I recommend picking it up for at least a rent. NetFlix == Friend. For those who do know what I am talking about, here's the skinny. Writer/Director/Producer George Miller has gotten balls deep in Video Games. And he thought, "Hey there is some stuff I could do with digital media that I couldn't with film. Read More...

Totally Unreal
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 13th of March 2008 - 03:58 PM ]
Unreal Engine 4 Targeting Consoles As I am sure a lot of you are, you have seen or played with the Unreal 3 Engine. I know I got overly excited when I first saw it back in my college days, not too long ago but still. Needless to say, but I'm still going to say it, it was beautiful and I couldn't look more forward to it. Now this drops out there in cyber land and I am actually curious to see it. That and it will go mainly toward Consoles instead of for PC games, at first. Read More...

My Experience At The Gamestop Release. Yes, I know there were a few about this already here, but this is an actual event that I thought needed to be out there.

The Nintendo DS and YOU!
by [ Monday, 10th of March 2008 - 05:26 PM ]
When browsing through the various console sections at the local Best Buy, a gamer is likely to pass up the Nintendo DS, chalking it up to child's play given the exorbitant amount of games based on children's movies for the system. And after all, who can really trust the credibility of a handheld that comes in PINK? However, this fangirl is about to tell you exactly why the DS is the most multi-faceted system available on the market, and one of the best investments you can make with your hard earned gaming allowance. To me, the Nintendo DS (and when I say that, I mean my DS Lite) is like my Ipod. Read More...

INFESTATION!
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 10th of March 2008 - 04:36 PM ]
Information on the Zerg from Startcraft II Starcraft is another one of those games that is anticipated in the coming times. I've been looking forward to it ever since I saw it at the blizzard booth at Comic-Con 2007. I know I'm chomping at the bit to get more and more on it. But any ways, this may not be the best thing ever. It also might not be 100% true. But here is what was leaked out onto the net. Read More...

GameStop is finally releasing the anxiously awaited Nintendo Wii game Super Smash Bros. Brawl this Sunday (3/9/08), but they have put a new twist on to the midnight release, a countrywide tournament.

This tournament has four rounds. GameStop will be flying the eight semifinalists to San Jose, California to compete in the fourth and final round at their brand new tournament center and store.

Excel Just Ain't For Bookkeeping
by David 'Hades' Becker [ Friday, 7th of March 2008 - 05:07 PM ]
Microsoft Excel: Revolutionary 3D Game Engine? Ok, I've been coding in Excel for some time now. I've thought that I have pushed the limits on what the program can do and such. Then things like this come flying over my desk. Some one actually made a sheet that calculates and displays 3D graphics in Excel. Brilliance! The next best part, they offer up the base files and details on how it was done from Gamasutra in a 5 page article on this alone. Read More...
