Editorial – “Mega Man” and a call to Occupy E3
This week I’ve got an editorial for you all, thanks to the embarassment of news riches that were worth ranting about. First I have a discussion on the reveal that “Mega Man” would appear in Street Fighter X Tekken, and then I have a discussion about the Used Game Debate, and whether the Occupy movement should get involved. (Hint: The answer is yes.)
Editorial – Used Games & Mega Man
This week I’m getting topical with rants about the “Mega Man’s” appearance in Street Fighter X Tekken, and on the Used Games discussion that Gabe of Penny Arcade started on Twitter – and in particular with a call to Occupy E3.
Video Game Review – Gears of War 2
Sorry for this review taking so long to go up – when I originally downloaded the gameplay footage from Skorch82 for this video review, it was somehow corrupted – which meant I couldn’t convert it from FLV, which meant I couldn’t edit it in properly. Thus, I had to re-download all the video on the fly while I was editing the video. Hence the delay. However, the work is done and now my review is presented for your consideration.
Now, without further ado, I prevent my review of Gears of War 2. Enjoy!

E3 2011 – Unsold, and the Shame of the Show
Well, at long last I’m finally done with my E3 2011 videos, with my thoughts of the games which turned me off from them, and the shame of the show – a title that disgusted me to the point that I threw up in my mouth a little.
E3 2011 – SOLD!
After much delay, it’s now time for me to talk about the games from this year’s E3 that caught my interest. Specifically, I’m referring to titles that I wasn’t already sold on coming in to the event (like Uncharted), or that were announced at the event (like Hitman: Absolution).
