    The guys at Gamersyde honored the ‘no filming of the screen’ rule during their private Halo 3 gameplay demo at E3 last week – but they DID film Frankie’s face as he played. You can hear all the content, which is what has many people excited. (The rest…

    Earlier this week at E3 Lite, Microsoft and Bungie showed a video of campaign gameplay and cinematic footage from Halo 3. I’ve planned two pieces as a result. The first one examines the trends in the nature of campaign trailers from Halo 1 to Halo 3,…

    First off, I am not lame. What is lame is how we had to sit and hear MINTZ talk about how he wants to join MTV’s latest reality show ‘Under aged and Engaged’. This was almost as lame as hearing Funkmon broadcast from the closet (hah). Halo 3 E3…

    As many of you know, at the E3 Microsoft conference a one-two punch was delivered to Halo fans as we all watched “Arms Race”. Which Bnet described as: A collaboration between Bungie Studios, director Neill Blomkamp, WETA Workshop and Origami Digit…

    Okay, that IceWeasel guy… he’s just crazy. Makes me laugh… but he’s crazy. He’s followed up ‘…For the Sake of Talking’ (released last week) with …For the Sake of Yelling. It’s only 80 seconds long, but there are a number of WTF moments in ther…

    Hey Everyone, Today’s comic is obviously about the Transformers movie. When we found out that not only did a soda machine turn into a transformer (and maniacally shoot drinks out; sound familiar?), but an actual Xbox 360 did as well (not the drink spi…
