WATCH: AWKWARD GAMER GUY at E3 pretty much NAILS IT
Props to our own Faux Bot for shoving this gem across my path. It becomes quickly evident that this video is a gag. However, that doesn’t stem the awesome and accurate representation of a good portion of people you’ll meet cruising the aisles at conventions. And furthermore? I genuinely love everyone who matches this portrayal. I don’t know.

THE ROCK may star in ‘TERMINATOR 5’? GIVE ME YES PLZ.
It is no secret that I am a fan of The Rock. Let the tattoo of his perfect porcelain smile on my left ass cheek remind you. Let the burn-in of his Greatest Hits DVD on my plasma screen remind you. So fuck yeah, I am totally in line with giving the dude a role in the fifth Terminator movie.
Cosplay: BLACK CAT brings the LATEX, fries my MIND.
Ah, it’s been a minute on the cosplay tip. Let’s rally with some latex-bound Black Cat goodness. No?
ROBERT DOWNEY JR. signs for ‘AVENGERS 2’ and ‘AVENGERS 3.’ Money Truck goes BEEP BEEP.
The inevitable has happened. Marvel has signed Robert Downey Jr. for the second and third Avenging flicks. No brainer, right? Still though – no mention of Iron Man 4. My guess? I’m still pushing for his death-sacrifice/resurrection in the aforementioned movies. What do you peoples make of all this?
Opinions Vary: Pushing Forward Back
If you folks are anything like me, you’ve often thought how cool it would be to have super powers. You also love avocados. However this Opinions Vary has nothing to do with super powers … avocados might play into it later on.
This week’s Opinions Vary is about Time Travel. More specifically, where would I like to visit in the sands of time? Hit the jump and let’s do this thing.

Thought I had shaken the Episode VII bug whilst gone? Kiss the blueberry pancakes dangling from my ass! Wait, what? So uh yeah, anyways. A casting breakdown for the flick has leaked, bringing with it seven major character descriptions. Better than that? A little honey on top of your boner? LucasFilmPeople have confirmed it to be legit.
SPACESHIP OMEGA: MOTHERF**KING MICROPHONE CHECK
Hello, comrades. It has been quiet around the Spaceship as of late, and for that I apologize. This week marked the beginning of Umass Boston’s Big Mistake. Otherwise known as my first week of teaching. As such, I’ve been embroiled in lesson plans. Rambling about peeing my pants on the highway to my students. And other misgivings. So anyways, I figured I’d post this up here.
It’s a general.
Hey.
How are you doing?
Type thing.
Hit the comments, so we can all catch up.
Hope everything is wonderful. Things will begin spinning up around here shortly.
MICROSOFT is TOTS REMOVING ALL THE DRM from Xbox One. Fist Pump++
Mark this one for the people. And you can’t have it both ways, folks. If you were bemoaning the general arrogance of Microsoft and its DRM policies (like me), then you should probably laud the company for not shoving them down the consumers’ throats. Today the company that Bill Built has announced they’re rescinding all their proposed DRM policies for the new console.
New ‘ELYSIUM’ Trailer: Shittin’ on your favorite movie this summer’s lifeee.
Goddamn, this trailer. Hot off the presses (okay, not really), hardening me tits. Here is hoping Elysium delivers wht I’ve yet to receive this Popcorn Season: a slam-bang special effects shrapnel bomb that transcends its status as just that. A man can hope.
E3 vs PR – Part III: Microsoft Monday and Mixed Messages
Let’s talk about how important Monday was for determining the game industry’s narrative for the coming months.
Let’s also talk about what it means to gamers like you, and me, and how industry giants like Microsoft and Sony communicated with us via the grand stage of E3.
Monday saw PR-beleageured Microsoft take the stage first, around 9:30 a.m. Pacific Time. There’s no beating around the bush – they had an uphill battle to wage, one very much set up by their own PR snafoos over the last month.
