August 22, 2008 by The Bored Gamer

… done with Peeps and Bunnies. Strange and quite clever. My favorite after the cut.

“Free comic like instant courage — only find it on Internet.”

July 30, 2008 by Dave

A few pieces of random Watchmen mania (Watchmania?) First of all, this is genius. Second, a Chip Kidd-designed Watchmen extras book is awesome. Finally, while playing around with my new video iPod, I came across a Watchmen “motion comic” on iTunes. Only the first episode is up, but it’s free, so I checked it out. […]

July 29, 2008 by Dave

A funny/strange video of singing along to the Batman theme. I predict you will either love this or hate this.

Press “A” Repeatedly to Torture Moloch

July 23, 2008 by Dave

Continuing the spin-up of the hype machine for the Watchmen movie, downloadable episodic Watchmen video games are coming. The developer claims that this will give them more time to actually produce a quality game, unlike the vast majority of movie cash-in tie-in games. The games will follow the adventures of Nite Owl and Rorschach, I’m […]

Inquisition of the Week: Bat-sequel

July 21, 2008 by Dave

Last week, in preparation for the release of The Dark Knight, we asked which Batman movie was your favorite. The clear winner, with 59%, is Batman Begins, the reimagining with an all-star cast that lead into The Dark Knight. The previous first Batman movie came in second with 20%, and the first animated Batman movie, […]

Watchmen Trailer

July 17, 2008 by Bartoneus

If you haven’t heard yet, the Watchmen trailer is out!  I believe it’s showing before The Dark Knight, in which case I’ll be very excited to see it on the big screen at midnight tonight.  But do you really think you’d have to wait until then to see it, of course not!  You can check it out […]

YouTube of the Week: F Yeah!

July 8, 2008 by Dave

In honor of the 4th of July last Friday here in the states, I present the above (whose existence I was reminded of by BoingBoing.) NSFW audio.

While I was gone…

June 30, 2008 by Dave

Three pretty important things happened in the gaming world while I was sequestered away at Origins: Reiner Knizia has won his first Spiel Des Jahres award for the boardgame Keltis. And he won the best kids game award too! I’m sure I’m one of the last bloggers to report on this, but Diablo 3 is […]

Penny Arcade (and PvP) Continue Gaming Domination

May 30, 2008 by Dave

So, Wizards got Gabe and Tycho from Penny Arcade and Scott Kurtz from PvP to sit down at a table to play 4th edition. Gabe announces it on the Penny Arcade news for today, and gives it a generally positive impression. The best part though? They recorded the whole thing for a podcast. (And added […]

Review: Penny Arcade Adventures (On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness)

May 22, 2008 by Dave

After stopping by a few stores and calling a few more, it seemed clear to me that I wasn’t going to pick up a copy of Wii Fit. (And that means I won’t be buying it any time soon… sigh.) I was able to find solace by downloading the demo for Penny Arcade Adventures: On […]
