Jack Thompson gets it for his ridiculous comments on the VT shootings. Linky Edit by Bartoneus: It looks like he’s getting called out on his BS by the San Francisco Chronicle too, and I imagine more to come.
The Many Fates of Mario Mario
I’m currently blasting my way through Super Paper Mario, which is ridiculously fun and old school, but may be a tad too short. So here’s a couple starring-Mario webcomics and art pieces that have caught our attention recently: Sticky Note Theatre: The Untold Enemies of Mario Perry Bible Fellowship: Mario Too VGCats: Koopa! Thrice Fresh: […]
YouTube Game Trailer of the Week: Poor Samus Strips Again Edition
I made another exception to my YouTube only policy- this video of Master Chief and Samus fighting Matrix style has a lot going for it, if only marred by a bit of excessive cheesecake.
The Wii is Taking a Turn to the Dark Side
While I’ve been an avid fan of console systems and games that Nintendo has produced since its origin, I’ve been slightly disheartened by the game selection in recent years. Nintendo repeatedly has had the fewest titles for their systems since the Nintendo 64 and too many of the select few making production are going down […]
Review: Guitar Hero II
With a little practice, you can become the next Slash, Hendrix, or Peter Frampton! Well, at least in your own mind. Fresh off the success of Guitar Hero, Red Octane has released the first sequel to the highly acclaimed game. Guitar Hero II features new songs, more songs, new venues, and new characters. The Xbox […]

Previous Mario coverage: Super Black Mamba Bros. Edition, The Game Is Never Over, For Mario Edition, and Super Mario Live.
Don't Believe the Anti-Hype
No Random Encounter this week, I’m too busy prepping for next week’s excellence! ‘Nerd Culture’ is a very unique thing; we place much of our spirits upon movies and games, the things which entertain us the most. We become inextricably attached to these things, and we grow to love or nurture them, investing a part […]
Inq. of the Week: For Violence!
Last week’s Inquisition turned out a bit skewed, as some one/thing decided to spam vote for Superman 24 times in a row one morning. Adjusting for this, the end results included 46 votes and I’d like to thank everyone who voted (and didn’t cheat) for participating! It turns out the most of you (28%) would […]
Nostradamus Called It
A quickie for this week, which disheartens me because of the last two weeks missed, bringing my tally for the year to -3 comics from the goal. I keep not illusions of necessarily ending the year in the positive, simply an improvement over last year will suit me well enough, but I wouldn’t have set […]
WoW Action Figures Update
To tide you over until the Random Encounter is up later today, I wanted to fulfill one of my promises made back in early February. I said that I would post images of the World of Warcraft action figures as soon as they came out, but as I don’t visit the WoW homepage very often I must […]
