  Uwe Boll is a genius!

  At least he proclaims himself to be. Check this out (WARNING -- FOUL LANGUAGE FOLLOWS):

  It may be the funniest/stupidest thing I've ever heard a no talent hack say. I don't think he should stop making movies. Regardless of how crappy they may be, he's entitled to do what he wants. But to say that his movies are "way better as all that social critic George Clooney" is ridiculous. Yeah Boll, your movies are better than Michael Clayton. HAHAHA! I love that clown!

  Look at me! I'm whining about a review!

  Why is it that every few days or so, I come on this website to look up some things and I see a blog complaining about reviews from Gamespot? Why do these people feel the need to cry about how their precious game didn't get a good review? Do they have anything to do other than sit around their computer inhaling food and disagree with stuff? Do they have any real friends (online friends do not count -- sorry folks)? Honestly, it's so pathetic.

  I have a news flash for the hundreds of people's blogs I've come across complaining about a review: WE DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR WORTHLESS OPINION ABOUT SOMEBODY ELSE'S WORTHLESS OPINION. Because that's exactly what reviews are: opinions. I don't think people understand that (or they really are a worthless sack of crap that can't come up with anything better to do than waste their time on such a trivial subject). People complained about Bioshock getting a 9 saying, "It deserved at least a 9.5!" And now I'm even hearing, "What? Super Smash Bros. Brawl deserved a perfect 10! Not that laughable 9.5!" 0.5 points? Seriously?

  And even if a game got a 6 or so and you think it deserves an 8 or higher, nobody cares. That may be a substantial difference, but that doesn't mean Gamespot is wrong and you're right. Regardless of whether you think it is great or not, I'll always take Gamespot's review over yours (which is usually heavy laden with spelling errors, incorrect punctuation, and immature fanboy bashing). I disagree with Gamespot all the time, but the difference is I don't whine like I'm 6 every time a game gets lower or higher than I think it deserves. I just think it's hilarious how people complain about Gamespot and call them biased (although they aren't) and then go and say, "The Wii is overrated!" Whatever.

  Which brings me to my next point. STOP COMPARING GAMESPOT'S REVIEW SCORES TO OTHER GAMING WEBSITES/MAGAZINES. For instance, let's say Game X got a 7 on Gamespot, but received an 8-9 average from the other game reviewers. Inevitably, some moron will come on here and blog about how Gamespot is stupid, biased, and too hard on games because they weren't in the majority. You know who else wasn't in the majority? Martin Luther King Jr. Think about that.

  This is not a personal attack on anybody in particular. Even still, I'm sure a large number of you (and you know who you are) will read this and either A) try to defend their position and lose or B) not say anything because they're smart enough to know they will get humiliated beyond belief.

  I'll say this one last time (ha! That's doubtful). To all of you who feel the need to constantly complain about Gamespot's reviews -- go away. Don't read the reviews, don't comment in the forums, and don't write in your blog. Find a different medium to express your beyond annoying opinion. But above all else get some real flesh and blood friends. It might help you justify your up until now meaningless existence.

  We are the champions!

  George Mason University is going back to the big dance! Tonight, we won the CAA championship to clinch our spot in the NCAA tournament. Some of you may remember our amazing Final Four run two years ago where we beat Michigan State, Wichita State, UNC, and UCONN. If you don't, then I don't know what to tell you. Watch more basketball.

  Anyway, all things (including video games) have been unimportant during this basketball season, but now that we've won our conference championship game and we're going back to the NCAA tourney, everything has just become irrelevant. Will we make it back to the Final Four? Realistically, probably not. But in this fan/student's eyes, anything is possible. Get ready for some March Madness and the George Mason Patriots coming to a television near you!
