What Are You Playing This Weekend?

Like millions of other gamers, I’m going to be spending a large chunk of this weekend playing Rockstar Games’ L.A. Noire. To break things up I’m going to play a bunch of Let’s Golf 2 and Chaos Rings on my iPad 2. The latter is actually on sale for a limited time, so if you … Continue reading “What Are You Playing This Weekend?”

T-Mobile G2x Review: Stock Android and Blazing Performance

T-Mobile was the first major American carrier to support Google Android. While the company has consistently released quality Android phones at a variety of price points, Sprint and Verizon have been getting more attention with its high-end products. The T-Mobile G2x by LG changes all of that. The G2x is currently the best Android phone … Continue reading “T-Mobile G2x Review: Stock Android and Blazing Performance”

Jesse Jackson Jr. Blames Unemployment on the iPad

Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. delivered an inspired and amazingly uninformed rant on how the iPad is killing American jobs. This has skyrocketed to the top of the list of the dumbest things I’ve heard in 2011. Apparently the iPad is the scourge of book makers, librarians, Borders employees, etc. Sure it’s made in China, but … Continue reading “Jesse Jackson Jr. Blames Unemployment on the iPad”

Today’s Poll: Gaming or Phoning While on the Toilet

Today’s poll was inspired by RPadholic Sandrock323. He mentioned that he never uses his Nintendo DS while…uh…making a deposit in the bathroom. He believes that his DS is too sacred. Do you agree? Is it okay to play some DS or PSP while doing the #2? How about web browsing on your Android phone or … Continue reading “Today’s Poll: Gaming or Phoning While on the Toilet”

Ranking the American Idol 2011 Top 11

I was all set to write about American Idol’s “Top 10”, but Randy Jackson, Jennifer Lopez, and Steven Tyler used the judges’ save this week. Instead of 10 singers on the American Idol summer tour, there will be 11. It’s coming down to the wire and I wanted to rank the last 11 contestants. Let’s … Continue reading “Ranking the American Idol 2011 Top 11”

Henry Rollins, Roddy Piper in Green Lantern: Emerald Knights

In my review of All-Star Superman, I mentioned that the disc comes with a teaser feature on Green Lantern: Emerald Knights. Nathan Fillion takes the lead role as Hal Jordan. He’ll be accompanied by rocker/author Henry Rollins and WWE legend “Rowdy” Roddy Piper. I’m super psyched to hear Rollins as Kilowog. Once described by a thick … Continue reading “Henry Rollins, Roddy Piper in Green Lantern: Emerald Knights”

DICE 2011 Day Two: Raymond’s Rants

Man, that was way too much alcohol last night. I’m finally starting to feel like a human being again. As expected, DICE 2011 is awesome. It’s fantastic chatting with incredible developers, catching up with friends, and watching RPadholic N8R. We just had a fun lunch with some major players in the videogame industry. I can’t … Continue reading “DICE 2011 Day Two: Raymond’s Rants”
