I dislike tuna. If you are thinking of purchasing me a gift, and you feel the need to purchase tuna. You should probably think again, because I will... stab you in the face.

  Metal Gear Solid on the 360!!

  Sweet, so I am totally going to go buy a 360 this weekend. This was seriously the last game I was waiting for on the PS3. Hideo Kojima announced that unfortunetely it wont be available at the same time but I'd rather have it late than never. Check out the announcement! It mostly one of the previous trailers recut with Hideo Kojima's announcement at the end. I'm psyched.

  I am not dead...

  But I have been busy... which is a lie. What I have been doing is playing a lot of games. I ran into a lot of PC game recently (finding that though integrated video on my new XPS M1210 was a bad idea my proccessor can make up for the loss in video) I've been playing Warcraft 3, Fable and Black and White 2 (Working on F.E.A.R. as well...) Also Smash Brothers Brawl is out and I have to tell you, it is everything and more. If you own a Wii and have not yet picked up SSBB, you are missing out. Great fun, best in the series I can't possibly praise it enough. During the copius wet season of games I tend to play a lot of them. But I'm still here... So hello everyone.

  The Sanity-box race for reason

  This is my short and sweet response to an article written by Kevin McCullough, which, to be honest was indeed brought to my attention by Penny Arcade. He is grossly misinformed and has been ranted upon the entire page by commenters, but I still thought a reasonable banter was warrented.

  Do you have any idea what you are talking about McCullough? Have you ever played a video game? Do you have brain poison?
  
  Game's with mature content aren't marketed to young audiences. It is irresponsible parent's who don't monitor their children's purchases that are responsible for the content therein reaching an unintended audience. If you are still looking to place blame, retailers often neglect to check buyers identification, thus allowing underage children to possess what is obviously mature content.
  
  I'm no supporter of games which objectify violence and sex needlessly. But oftentimes, preachy columnists such as yourself fail to even play through an entire game, much less experience anything but the worst in a game. You know nothing of the content, the depth, or complexity of the game of Mass effect.
  
  Quit blaming games for bad parenting. There is a rating system, and if adults/retailers would follow the rating scale at a reasonable level games which are obviously intended for a mature audience (if only for a brief seen containing barely explicit nudity presented tastefully and well in context and character development) wouldn't end up in the hands of children.
  
  Your concern is misguided, belligerent, and uninformed Mr. McCullough.
