Game On: Week of Jan. 13

My column from a couple weeks' back. The games I reviewed were Darksiders and Divinity II.

Friday Funnies XVIII

This clip gets a Friday Funnies nod from me for several reasons. I gave Kelly a rug because it was rolled up serving no purpose in the house, and we joked all weekend in Chicago about how it ties the whole room together in his condo. Brilliant. Plus, a Pixelated...

When PR Companies Go Crazy

Oh. Hell. Yes.Those are frickin night vision goggles my friends. And they are real.Last year I wrote about a PR company for a video game that went a little haywire with its promotional materials. That was an instance where a PR company went crazy in a bad way (though my...

My column from the first week of the new year. The games I reviewed were Bayonetta and Final Fantasy: The Crystal Bearers.

Oh. Crap.

I am not a superstitious guy. At least, I don't think I am. But this is going to test me for sure. If you don't know, there is a theory called the Sports Illustrated Cover Jinx. And now I really only care because John Wall has made the cover of...

What I’ve Watched: Up in the Air

The Campbell holiday tradition continues, this time with the Clooney flick, Up in the Air.Like most movie-going folk, I am a Clooney fan. He's fantastic when being in serious films like "Good Night and Good Luck" or when hamming it up and being a good sport like in "Oceans Eleven."...
