Sorry, Gamestop, That’s Not How It Works [Stealing Stuff You Paid For]
You know, I try to cut Gamestop some slack. Sure, I know about how they open games to keep discs behind the counter. I even know how they let their employees rent games which they turn around and sell as “new.” This… this is something else. In case you can’t open the link, here’s what’s …
Making Time to Be Healthy
Scarybooster has a good post up encouraging gamers to break the stereotype of being overweight, unmotivated, and generally thought of as lazy. We all know how un-true this is, but one thing I’ve noticed is that a lot of my gaming buddies don’t find time for exercise in their daily routine. There are the …
Documentary Review: The Raid – A Giant Mole Which, As a Saving Grace, Isn’t TOTALLY Covered in Those Hairs We Find So Gross
I recently watched the preview of the new MMO documentary, The Raid, which you can watch for yourself here. The movie presents the most accurate portrayal of raiding currently available.

On joining the games industry
There was a portion of my life where I was certain I’d be a computer programmer. Well, not really a programmer, more like the guy who hooks computers together; a networking guy; the dude with the wire closet. That didn’t pan out, however, but giving it the Old College Try™ did yield certain benefits. Out …
