I fell in love with this game in the middle of the tutorial. A little text box instructed me to tell one of my line backers to commit a foul. A right click brought a human player football player to run up to an unconscious rat man and kick him ...

Turning on the Dreamcast is a magical journey back to a simpler time. To be precise, it's November 27, 1998, because the fucking internal clock is just as miserable a sack of crap as the Xbox's. I hate turning the thing on because looking at that time setup screen reminds ...

I don't like strategy games. In a recent post, I stated that I owned Battletech as a youth. Like many people I owned it, but never got around to playing it. Oh yes, I read the entire rulebook, set up a board, even found somebody insane enough to try and ...

John Carmack, id's head retiree, has lost his fucking marbles. Not in his typical, probably from outer space way. No, he's joined the short yet growing line of former game developers-turned-professional character assassins in service of Microsoft.
