PGR: What are you?

Are you a real racing game or are you a novelty racing-type game? I’m just saying that the time has come for you to come-of-age and decide if you want to do big-boy stuff or that nonsense that they show on G4 in the middle of the night. You can’t have it both ways anymore and kudos are not innovative anymore. Kudos, or hot tears of driving shame, need to be quietly laid to rest.

Bizarre, you’ve got a good thing going here; it’s a nice cross between arcade racing games like Burnout and punch-you-in-the-face games like Forza. Please, for the love of all things sweet and innocent, stop forcing me to get Kudos to advance in the so-called career mode. Oh, and by the way, your calendar of events blows.

CMIX Required Accessory

Sure, you could play some lame ass paintball at CMIX. Or, you could hang with the cool kids and play HALO LAZER TAG! Yes, it’s so cool it’s spelled LAZER. Newegg has the plasma rifle and Amazon has the plasma pistol. For only 200 bones you could sort-of n00b combo people. Sort-of, I guess.

This awesome shirt is newly available over at J!nx. And guess what, we’re now a J!nx affiliate, so you can buy up some sweet threads and the clan gets a decent little kickback. So head on over there and pick up the Flood Insurance and Bioshocker shirts and be happy knowing that the clan account is a little more in the black.

All The Stuff Your Heart Is Wet For

Thanks to Hawty McBloggy who found this video. It’s long at 9 minutes, but there are 3 or 4 really funny parts, especially the color blind joke. Some funnier parts are towards the end, so hang in there.  NSFW!

Hawty McBloggy’s Gamer Personal Ad

November 8th, 2007 Duster72

BS Angel has a very funny take on a web dating service for gamers. The best part is that her fictional personal ad is good enough to make me want to marry the person sight unseen:

“Hi, my gamertag is bs angel. I have a real name but it’s been so long since I have heard it, I don’t remember what it is anymore. Some of my favorite activities are : taking long walks on the beaches of Valhalla, tending to my garden and caring for my pinatas, and playing nice long games of “draw until you can play” Kameo-themed Uno. I prefer stickies over frags. Shotties over maulers. Pull-offs over hammer-ons. Interested applicants should know split screen will never be an option. Anybody who is unable to play on expert need not apply.”

Overpriced & Ugly Nintendo Merch Finally Available

November 8th, 2007 Duster72

Torpedo Ted

If you have been waiting for some Nintendo threads that will get you some street cred, now’s your chance. You can pay more than double what some shirts are worth now over at Torrel Torrel. Bonus for those who are interested: the site looks like a lame joomla template and has hideous graphics. Apparently these shirts are supposed to have urban appeal and be awesome. I am not urban, but I do consider myself and authority on awesome, and I am not convinced.

For those who have bought up all the cool shirts at Hot Topic and need some more hotness, you might want to check out Penny Arcade’s relatively sweet online store.

Halovational: Funny Idea

 Halovational

Yep, it’s a funny idea.  More of those humorous versions of motivational posters that they used to sell in the mall 10 years ago, only now with Halo 3 screenshots.

The only problem is that they all suck.  That, and they don’t host their own images (!).  Anyway, I am sure someone will think it’s funny.

My sister interviewed for Google earlier this year. She didn’t get the job. That’s a major bummer, especially when you check out stuff like this office decorating competiton. I can’t believe they lost to Jumanji. That sounds lame anyway.
