Monday Night Combat: Developer Walkthrough Contains Traces of Bacon

Monday Night Combat is a class-based third-person shooter in the mold of Team Fortress 2. Some people have previously commented that Uber Entertainment's game looks a little too much like TF2, but this latest developer walkthrough shows there are a lot of differences. For example, the fact that TF2 is bacon-less, while Monday Night Combat has bacon high-fiving an ammo casing, awesome!

New Vegas' Anti-JRPG Smear Campaign

This is Awesome: Red Dead Redemption LEGO

Jogging With a Geek Ep. 8 - Went to Comic-Con and Played StarCraft II

So yeah, that updating on time thing. It's really hard. Haha, please don't kill me. Um, yeah, so last week you people who care did not actually get a video because we were kinda sorta at Comic-Con.  Which was pretty cool you know. Because there were a lot of things to look at. And by things I meant girls. Lot's of them. But there were also other things like the Expendables panel, Scott Pilgrim vs the World, and some GoW3 and Halo: Reach. Yum. Then this week, I kinda got into that new SciFi game StarCraft II. Immediately after playing I had a strong urge to eat some kimchi. Racist and sexist humor aside, check out the video below.

10 Million is the New Black, I Mean Success

At least, that's pretty much the vibe you get from BioWare vice president and co-founder Greg Zeschuk. Zeschuk recently spoke to VideoGamer about the new figure BioWare considers before they dub anything a fullblown success.

Say It Ain't So: Too Many Zombies Can Ruin a Game

Zombies are awesome. They've born the brunt of many a gamer's frustrations over the years, as they're generally pretty easy and satisfying to kill. There also seems to be an endless supply of them, so you'll never run out of things to kill and be chased by. But have you ever wondered just how many zombies is too many? Well Capcom's Shin Ohara has, and he told Gamasutra just that.

Comic-Con: Dead Space 2 Preview

On the final day of Comic-Con, while wandering around the streets of San Diego, I spotted an EA  sign pointing towards a random building.  As I got closer, I saw Dead Space 2 and Dragon Age 2 signs posted and said, "What the hell?" and walked over to said random building. Where Necromorphs proceeded to stab me in the face.
