  • Gears of War 2: Update 2 Now Available

    Today, at 2AM PST, the new title update for Gears of War 2 has dropped. It features a huge laundry list of glitch/bug fixes, and some much needed ones at that. I’d list all the fixes, but there’s quite a few of them. Check Rod Fergusson’s post on the Epic forums for the full list…

  • iPhone :: Favorite Apps and Games

    This is sort of a master list of my favorite iPhone applications and games. This list will be updated as it needs it, and as time allows. How does an app or game make the list? Well, it’s quite simple really. I own an iPhone 3G, so good, useful, fun apps and games that I…

  • iPhone 3G :: First Impressions

    So…this week I realized my contract with Sprint was up. I don’t know if any of you had/have Sprint, but their cell service was made of epic fail…I’ve been waiting for this day. Funny enough, my contract was up 2 months ago and I didn’t realize it until I looked it up on their site…

  • Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Athena Trailer

    This trailer should also be known as “nerdgasm.” I don’t know how many of you checked out the original “Escape from Butcher Bay” game on the original Xbox, but it was definitely a classic game I still keep. It really was ahead of its time for an FPS. It combined platforming, first person fist-fights, puzzles,…

  • MLG Gives Back

    Today I am proud to reveal a new initiative by MLG: MLG Gives Back. This arm of MLG will be for all of its efforts in regards to raising money for charity. Given MLG’s explosive growth over its 5 year history, I can’t think of better timing for something like this. “MLG Gives Back” will…

  • Echoes of War: The Review

    Not too long ago, I wrote a little piece about Echoes of War, a huge music release from the Eminence Symphony Orchestra. I just recently received “Echoes of War” in the mail. It quite literally is the soundtrack for the entire universe of games Blizzard has released upon the world. If you are unfamiliar, Blizzard’s…

  • Gears of War 2 News Roundup

    In case you missed it, the official site for Epic Games’ recent release, Gears of War 2, has some exciting news. For one, the soundtrack is now for sale via the guys at Sumthing Else, or in normal CD format on shelves everywhere. I’m not quite sure whether or not to get it, but knowing…

  • Left 4 Dead

    The Zombie Apocalypse is here- are you ready? In honor of tomorrow’s impending Left 4 Dead release, I thought I’d post a topic about Valve’s latest game, Left 4 Dead. Sporting a 4 player co-op mode, and a versus mode, Left 4 Dead is definitely targeted at those who love playing with friends. For wallpapers,…

  • Echoes of War

    So, I ran across an interesting story on Kotaku today. Apparently the Eminence Symphony Orchestra released probably one of the most amazing music collections I’ve never thought of hearing this way. They’ve basically been composing and arranging full orchestral music from the world of Blizzard- The Diablo series, Starcraft, and Warcraft. After reading the Kotaku…

  • MLG Gears of War 2 Film Festival

    Major League Gaming has kicked off their first Gears of War 2 film festival today. Users are to submit their best plays in a skill video no longer than 90 seconds. There is no limit on your number of entries. As for prizes, 500 bucks and MLG prize packs are up for grabs. The deadline…

  • Fable 2: My Thoughts

    I just finished the campaign last night, so I thought I’d post a few of my thoughts. There are many ****SPOILERS**** Having played the first one on the original Xbox, I’d say the best summary to my thoughts is that it’s everything the first one should’ve been and was definitely worth the money. I coughed…

    In case you all missed these: Epic has been releasing these “developer diaries” for the upcoming release of Gears of War 2.

  • Return.

    So, you may have noticed I’ve been a ghost in the online gaming community and gamingtv.us has been down most of the summer. Basically, I have been editing videos and doing photography non-stop for a christian youth camp in Wisconsin. What happened to GTV before I left was somehow, we were putting out some sort…

  • A Whiff of HALO Nostalgia…

    SneakyPete is the tricker behind this great video. It’s videos like this that remind me of the beginnings of the Halo community, when H.B.O. could barely host a 25mb video, when “How Not to Be Seen” was a sensation, and just the general camaraderie and spirit of it all. This tricking video really captures the…

  • video: Halo 3 skull guide by Trigger

    A long video, but I think a good one. I made this video. It’s how to get ALL the skulls in Halo 3. IMO the music is great, and it’s clear as to where each skull is and how to get to their locations. I hope you guys enjoy this as much as I enjoyed…

  • Oh So Beautiful: Shadowrun

    Filmed|Edited by me, GTVtrigger.Music: Andrew Bird- Tables and ChairsDescription: This video is intended to showcase my appreciation of the graphics of Shadowrun, but much more than that. I like to see some of the things FASA has put in there like the…

  • GamingTV.org 1 year Anniversary

    The only thing I am sad about is how it took the domain expiring for us to realize this. We are back, however. Sorry for the inconvenience. It barely feels like a year ago me, Twilkey, Hitman, Haphazardly, and several other imporant staff members star…
