  • RT: Puppy Love

    One of the many features of the Fable franchise is that you can “socialize” with your dog. Fable 3 has ramped that up to very uncomfortable levels – at least uncomfortable if you’re a decent human being, who doesn’t like to french kiss a border collie. Sadly, after watching her “socialize” with her in-game pet for about 30 straight minutes last night, I’ve learned that Griffon is not a decent human being. I just pray that PETA wasn’t staking out her Xbox Live account.

  • AH: Fable 3: I Am the Keymaster (Part Six)

    Aaaand… we’re finally at our journey’s end. This video completes our “I Am the Keymaster” Achievement saga. Now it’s on to Gnomes, flowers, Demon Doors, and Books!

  • AH: Weekend Hunt



    I’m hoping enough people aren’t going all JFK on some zombie ass in Black Ops to read this, there’s achievement hunting afoot:

    spiegbb32 is dusting off the Arcade game (even though that’s physically impossible) Snoopy Flying Ace going for the online achievements.
    November 13 @ 2:00 PM PDT
    Contact him here on AH or through XBL, Gamertag: Spieg89

    Next is elitejelly goin secret agent in the multiplayer mode of Quantum of Solace. 4-8 players will be needed for the Golden Gun adn Bond Versus achievements.
    All weekend, from the 12th to the 14th.
    Contact him here on AH or through XBL, Gamertag: Elitejelly

    Don’t forget about the big community event detailed in Fragger’s post yesterday, the Call of Duty: Black Ops Extravaganza.
    If you want to host a future Weekend Hunt, post the details in this group thread to get some frontpage attention.

  • AH: FotW Volume 8!

    Alright folks, I just spent most of the week in a foreign country but I wasn’t about to let that stop me from posting today’s Fails of the Weak! Enjoy!


  • RT: Shazazzle!



    Good Evening Ladies and Germs,
    We present for your viewing pleasure a new RT Short entitled Fish Wish, which features the vocal talents of the irrepressibly entertaining Jeskid. In case you haven’t seen Jeskid’s action comedy series Status Kill, do yourself a favor and check it out .

    Oh and while you’re doing yourself favors, have a look at the new super-money-saving-DVD bundles that we just added by popular request.

  • The future’s so bright…

    The Bungie Weekly Update is full of info about the upcoming playlist changes (set to go live on November 30, a bit later than expected for a ‘November” update, but hey, it’s timed to coincide with the Noble Map Pack DLC), as well as some interesting info about Challenges. And a Blame Stosh that made me laugh out loud. Go read! (It’s in our Weekly Update Archive, too, of course.)(Louis Wu 01:47:10 UTC)

  • Podtacular 240: MLG Dallas Recap and Mazsik Interview

    Download
    Dust Storm and AceofSpadesCard went to Dallas this past weekend to cover the last Halo 3 MLG event at the 2010 Championships. For those who didn’t get a chance to go, it was a very good event. Since Greg didn’t get a chance to go, we decided to do a recap of the event and include the interview Dust Storm did with Mazsik: Coach of Final Boss. Enjoy
