Rumors, rumors, rumors, man I love rumors.   The latest news come courtesy of Game Informer magazine, issue 190.   In their Loose Change column they had the following to say:

"We're not talking about new DLC or a collection of previously available DLC, we're talking about a full retail game. We expect this title to follow the suit of previous GTAs and use a subtitle such as GTA: San Andreas, etc. Tokyo might be a possible setting for the game, but details are non-existent at this time."

Girls and gaming are definitely two of my favorite distractions in life.  I don't have any kind of unfulfilled desire for a "gamer girl".  My girlfriend is fantastic even if she won't touch Resident Evil for being too scary.   That doesn't mean I won't ogle a good looking gal from time to time who enjoys her games.   Who are my favorites?   That is the subject of this edition of Slapnut's Weekly Top Five.

I can't verify that all of these girls have a serious passion for gaming like many of us may…  More

Capcom loves their T&A.  If you don't have enough evidence to support that conclusion I present exhibit A above and exhibit B below with this new alternate costumes trailer.  What the hell is C. Viper wearing?  That kind of outfit usually only exists in the comic world. 

I get the whole El Fuerte/Nacho Libre connection but does he really need a chef's hat?  That is some goofy looking choice of clothes there.  And Rose, hell she could fit in …  More

The last Epic Drop of the week.  Prepare to face the heat of the Obama White House and be sure to check out the second coming of Bruce Lee in tonight's video.  +1

60MB downloads and 5MB uploads is Charter Cable's latest addition to their broadband lineup making it the fastest speeds in the U.S.  $130 isn't cheap and you can only get it in St. Louis at the moment but it's a start.  Now if only they can fend off bankruptcy and stay in business.  I like my 16MB Charter connection.  It is a leg…  More

Gold selling may be illegal on pretty much every big name MMO but that doesn't stop people from make serious cash of the virtual tender. 

My MMO Shop was apparently just sold for $10 million big ones by My MMO Inc., a private firm established at the end of last year specifically to buy My MMO Shop.  I guess business isn't just big in the Asian market as My MMO Shop is located in the USA and Australia.  You can read the full press release over at Yahoo! Finance.

My MMO Shop is only rated as th…  More

The game is a little under a month a way and reviews are already pouring in.  I don't believe the embargo date is up until Monday but early print reviews have leaked out and IGN seems to have one of their notorious pre-embargo reviews up as well.  Check the video review below and the written review hitting a 9.4 here.



Eurogamer who is notoriously picking when it comes reviews gave it a 9/10.  Gamepro gave it a 5/5 in their print mag.  A bunch of other smaller sites, especially in Europe have…  More

Welcome to another morning of the Epic Drop.  The new Watchmen poster is out so make sure you click on in for that and some weird ass centaur action that is definitely NSFW.  Enjoy!  +1

Seems a few people in Washington have some common sense.  Not only did the GOP vote against the Pork Package yesterday but the digital TV delay was voted down in the House.  Like I mentioned when the idea was first discussed it makes little sense to delay the transition.  A majority of people who haven't tra…  More

I give this game way more publicity than it deserves and for that apologize to you all and other respectable gamers everywhere. 

And you thought the "Where's mah skull" line was a instant classic from the previous trailers.  This could be one of the funniest videos in IGN history. 

Thought provoking lines like the title are littered throughout this "smack talk trailer":



"Game over *******" is what Fif should be saying to all his game's competition this year.  Clearly still a leader when it co…  More

Square finally delivers.  All of our *****ing and moaning finally pays off in the form of a brand new trailer on the Final Fantasy 13 site. 

Yes it has english subs, yes it finally shows off in-game footage and yes it just may be pretty badass.

Click the above link for some higher res footage or watch the embeded video below which will have to do until some snazzy Gametrailers HD footage comes along.

Was it worth the wait?  …  More

And I thought it was cold in my house.  Gotta feel for this 93 yr old Michigan man who apparently froze to death after having his electricity limited and not having enough juice to run the furnace.  I should probably quit *****ing about the cold and wear more layers.  Welcome to the Epic Drop!  +1 if you would.

And some of us thought that 200 million to re-sod the national mall in Washington was pork.  Turns it is really going to create jobs...  no seriously!
