Ugh... what a horrible way to kick off MMA in prime time here in the USA. 

Gary Shaw of EXC, and the New Jersey athletic commission should be ashamed of themselves.  EliteXC had a chance to knock this out of the park in front of millions of viewers, and the show ends with THREE bad fight stoppages.

And Kimbo, I will get to Kimbo, he is a joke of a MMA fighter.  Any UFC HW would tool his ass.

Gina Carano vs.  Kaitlin Young: 
Great fight all the way through... till the end.&…

Found this clip earlier today from the often hated Uwe Boll.  I have discussed Uwe and his bad movies before, and his recent verbal barbs towards Michael Bay so I won't deny I find him a interesting topic.  Hell, they even get kicked out of Starbucks in this interview.

He has grown on me since his interviews with Gametrailers, and this latest interview is no exception.  Don't get me wrong, I may have more respect for the guy, but that doesn't mean I am enamored with his movies by a…

I may love my country, but I certainly don't always love my government.  A government for the people has progressively turned towards for the business.

Word about this potential agreement the US has been working on with other countries leaked out today thanks to Wikileaks.  Our government is working on a multi-national act to support IP rights, and prevent piracy and counterfeiting.  Other countries that are in on the deal are the EU, Japan, and Switzerland with half a dozen others…

I was scrolling through some random news today and some intricate pattern of thought (or maybe I just have too much gaming on the mind), led to think about the first time I could remember playing video games.  I have to admit, it is somewhat hazy. But doing the math, and tying it in with a few things, I can approximate it to around 1984-1985. 

The gaming joy of my life at the time?  This bad boy on the right.  The Atari 2600.  It wasn't my system, I was only 5 or 6 at th…

PC gaming is in serious need of "MEDIC!"
I don't want you to think I am one of those bleeding heart PC journalists or analysts who are going around carrying life sized banners noting the death of PC gaming.  PC gaming isn't dead yet, and won't be any time soon.  But it is struggling to stay afloat.  Over the past 10 years (*) PC game sales have halved, and console game sales have almost doubled.  What can be thrown into the water to save it?

I am not going insult your intellig…

GO CUBS GO!



I was bored after the Cubs game, so I figured I would post this.  The Diamondbacks were in 1st place, until the Cubs broke out the brooms.  100 years is long enough, this is the Cubs year!

Yes I said it.  I am very disappointed with the soundtrack in GTA IV.

San Andreas and Vice City had two of the best soundtracks in gaming history.  Part of it is the era's they dipped in to, and the nostalgic feeling they induced with many of us.  The 80's was full of great music, and Vice City grasped the best of it and put it in game for us.  The early 90's and the music featured in San Andreas was of full of modern day classics.

But GTA IV disappoints in this regard..  …

So this week's huge Iron Man opening was a great success for Marvel.  Being their first independently produced property done in house in their own Marvel Studios. 



Grossing over $100 million this past weekend assured us that we will see a Iron Man sequel in 2010 during the month of May again.  I assume Favreau will be back to direct the sequel as this was a passion of his. 

Personally I hope the go the route of Ultron as a villain, …

Let me clarify this from the get go.  Jack Thompson is full of ****. 

There is a recent interview floating around from CNN with Glenn Beck featured in part one, and part two features Jack Thompson, Glenn Beck and a gentleman from the Parents Television Council. 

Part 1:


Part 2:

I want to clarify a few point that Jack and Beck make which are wholly inaccurate.

1.  Jack states there is anal and oral sex options when you e…

*potentially mild spoilers* 

If your buddy asks if he can hotbox in your car, and you smash the window, apparently he doesn't give a damn.

If I am driving a Patriot and your yellow cab gets in my way, you can bet your ass I am going to monster truck over you.

When delivering drugs for prospective buyer, be warned, even pot heads get impatient and may not wait around for your slow driving self.

Burgers and chicken are fantastic for healing bullet wounds and car wrecks.

I have throughly enjoyed the past week writing about Grand Theft Auto 4, doing our retrospective on the previous titles, and preparing everyone for this weeks launch. 



I have had plenty of time to sit down with the game and immerse myself in the world that is Liberty City.  Yes, the praise on this game is well deserved.  It is a fantastic game, quite possibly the best game of the year.  Anything else on the way this year has a huge …

I am a well known Jordan nut and I saw this during the playoff games tonight and had to find it online.  Does a great job highlighting his work ethic which is often so overlooked compared to his style and flash.

To spread awareness for net neutrality apparently someone has decided to use the fact that sex sells on the internet, only one catch, apparently sex is free in this deal.



"Certain ISP’s are planning to limit internet access in a way that infringes upon internet freedom or ‘net neutrality’.
I'm using sex in a positive way to spread awareness. The reason why only virgins can apply is because I don’t want to make this pr…
