BHO just keeps digging deeper: Guitargate!

20 de April, 2008

There is no doubt in my mind that you are aware of my ongoing campaign to unearth secrets behind Barack HUSSEIN Obama’s run for presidency of the United States of America (god bless it). Now, for people on the internet, Hussein, besides Ron Paul, is probably the most popular candidate. These Obamabots have rigged almost every [...]

EA To Europeans: Bend over, luv

8 de April, 2008

EA announced its European release and pricing for Rock Band today. For the actual math you’ll have to read that article but the bottom line is we’ll be paying $380 for the same thing (divided in two packages for some unknown reason) Americans are getting for $169.

Forum Warz

They were the guys (and probably gals) who made Guitar Hero I & II. For €4.99 what could go wrong? Nothing it appears! The actual gameplay [...]

Peggle: Better than Halo 3?

1 de October, 2007

So Halo 3 got released recently. Have I been playing it? Of course. But another game has reduced my productivity to dangerously low levels: Peggle. It’s an extremely addictive “casual” game from the guys who did Bejeweled. It’s kind of pachinko on steroids. The objects is to clear all the orange pegs before your balls run out. [...]
