I Bring Nothing to the Table

  • Up [Filmmakers Bleed]

    It’s down to me to man the EBW Fort today, so today I think I’m gonna get in some quick words about Pixar’s latest movie, Up. There be spoilers here, so turn back if you don’t want to read them, mateys. After seeing it on opening weekend, Eric said the following to me “Worst Pixar […]

  • Trauma Team [Embedded Reporter]

    Deep from the trenches, it’s time for your Monday video feature: Embedded Reporter. I really enjoyed the Trauma Center games that I used to play on the Wii and it looks like Atlus is localizing yet another, but this time we have the twist that the player will control more than just a single (or […]

  • Silent Hill: Shattered Memories [Big N]

    I’m not a fan of the horror genre. Not even a little bit. The only “survival horror” game I’ve ever played was Eternal Darkness and, despite how awesome that game is, it scared the bejesus out of me in some places. Yet here we are again with another horror game tempting me with it’s interesting […]

  • Uncharted 2 MP Beta [Sony]

    On my second attempt to win an Uncharted 2 Beta key, I finally succeeded! I will let you guys know what it’s like once I get a chance to start playing, but I’m super pumped. Thanks 1UP.com!

  • P4ERP85 [Sony]

    Last time Vinny finally made Black Frost and seemed a little underwhelmed with the “palette swap.” It was a fairly short episode that mostly had fusing in it. Today they explore deeper into the Void Quest dungeon. As someone who has conquered the dungeon twice, I know that they’re about to hit the hard, strange […]

  • Ghosts, Zoey Clothes, Ten, the SML Theme, and Bit Boy [Game Overview]

    Insert another credit, because it’s time for your weekly video game news and you’ve just hit the Game Overview screen. Death Death in a single-player game is a fairly private thing. You do something stupid and, if your friends aren’t there, no one knows it happened and no one can even see it. Heck, if […]

  • P4ER P84

    The last Endrance Run TODAY (two in one day!) took a turn for the weird with some furry comments, but the gang is firmly dedicated to their “Black Frost side quest.” Mentions of the Gun Show “BOOM!”, how Long Island is weird, David Bowie the Pixie, anti-marijuana jokes, eating candy, twizzler shivs, 80s movies, and […]

  • P4ER Part 83 [Sony]

    In yesterday’s Endurance Run, Vinny and Jeff did a fair amount of fusing to prepare for unleashing Black Frost upon the demons of the Midnight Channel, only to find that they were two levels too low to manage the fusion. While it is a mostly fusion-centric episode, the gang does also venture into the Void […]

  • Rhythm Heaven Review [Big N]

    I’ve always harbored this delusion belief that I would be pretty good at music if I ever picked up an instrument. I have no evidence to back this up. Back in the fifth grade when I played the recorder I wasn’t an instant pro and I didn’t pick up the drums in Rock Band without […]

  • P4ER 82 [Sony]

    The Persona 4 Endurance Run continues! After an embarrassing defeat yesterday due to a lucky Hama strike on Charlie Tunoku (protip: carry a homunculus), the Persona 4 Endurance Run continues from the exact same place it left off yesterday. Part 82:
