America Wins The War 01/25/02 |
As much as we enjoyed not updating as a condition of our advisory position
in service to the U.S. Government during our recent war against Terrorism, we're finally
back. As a big welcome back present to ourselves, we took a break and didn't update for a
while longer. Then, we did. |

America Under Attack 09/28/01 |
We're not gonna pussyfoot around this: Terrorists blew up the World Trade
Center. We know it and you know it, and there isn't any other topic on the planet
that amounts to much in the aftermath of it. As much as we'd like to think up some
mildly positive spin to this, such as the new possibility that we might get to see Cat
Stevens killed on live television, we can't. Frankly, it's the first explosive act
in what will probably be the end of the world. Luckily for you, unlike many stars of
stage and screen, Erik's all cried out now and there's only rage left in the parts of his
head where tears used to be. He's a gamer. That's who he is, that's what he does,
that's all he knows, and that's how he plans to avenge us all. |

Welcome Back Message 05/10/01 |
I'll be honest with you: I don't know what happened. To make up for
our extended leave of absence, I've written a letter
of explanation that includes three or four hidden game reviews. As a further act
of contrition, I've hidden them in plain sight. The letter also includes a rap about
Black and White. Remarkably, no apology for the rap will be necessary since it's
actually "quite dope", as the Oxford-educated butler on a UPN sitcom guest
starring DMX might say. |
Serious Sam: The Second Interview 04/03/01 |
Serious Sam's out. To celebrate, we've landed yet another exclusive interview with Croteam's
Roman Ribaric. In it, he once again sticks it to the Man. As usual, the Man
becomes red-faced and shakes his fist at Roman. You don't have to be against the Man
to enjoy this interview, but it helps. Continuing our long tradition of service to
the community, we've made it easier than ever for you to access the interview by providing
three points of entry. Click here, here, or here. |

Dreamcast Contest 12/09/00 |
Just in time for Christmas, we're giving away a Dreamcast and five great games
and Shenmue. My goddamn back arrow key isn't working, so pretend the three
exclamation points at the end of this sentence are at the end of the previous
sentence!!! For once we thought ahead and actually had all the prize stuff in our
hands before we announced the contest. |
How To Get Rich Quick - Part 2 11/02/00 |
Bad Candy Mark buys us a Playstation 2 so that we can sell it for ten times
what it's worth on eBay, and LightsOut
Entertainment is there to capture it all on digital video. Not since Triumph of
the Will has such questionable behavior been so artfully presented. Click here or here for all the
details. |
How To Get Rich Quick - Part 1 10/25/00 |
Just because we're not as big as Something Awful doesn't mean our financial woes
are any less severe. With Chet gone on business, Erik has decided to single-handedly
solve all of our money problems. And he's convinced Bad Candy Mark to help him. Read all about it. Stay tuned all week as we report
on our progress. A lucky reader may even win ONE MILLION DOLLARS,
though not as a result of anything having to do with this article, Old Man Murray or
UGO. Please note that the article contains
never before seen word sequences mocking Daily Radar's Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
review. Click on this dollar sign to continue: $ |
OMM vs. The Secret Service 10/24/00 |
The amazing true story of Earth
vs. The United States Secret Service! Representing Earth: Erik, Seanbaby, and,
for a few minutes, Chet. What's the "secret" the U.S. Secret Service
pledge their lives to protect? It turns out, there isn't one. Their name just
makes it sound like there is. However, we did learn that special agents make even
specialer... friends. And you know what? Maybe that's
the secret. Because no matter what the lady who answers the phone at the Secret
Service says, I'm still pretty sure there's a secret. Click to confirm you do not want to
harm the President. |

Death of Adventure Games 09/11/00 |
Adventure games have been dying for fifteen years. According to an article
at Gamecenter, they're now completely deceased. We spent two weeks poking the corpse
with straws to make sure it really was dead before filing this report on who killed
adventure games. Note to the United States Secret Service: We said Adventure
Games. |
