  • Conan Shows That Mortal Kombat X Is Awesome And Marshawn Lynch Is Actually Fun

    So a funny thing happens in this video. Marshawn Lynch’s personality makes a rare appearance showing that he really hates sports reporters and not everyone.

    Conan, Marshawn and human fuckstick Rob Gronkowski truly become disgusted by Mortal Kombat X’s fatalities. That shows me that the game is well on its way to guaranteeing itself a spot in my console.

  • Voters Select Barry Sanders For Madden NFL 25 Cover

    After 40 million votes and debates by no one that I know in person, Barry Sanders has been selected the cover athlete for the 25th anniversary version of Madden NFL. Almost 40 million votes were tallied in the bracket that pitted NFL legends against current players. It came down to Barry Sanders and Adrian Peterson with Sanders prevailing with 58 percent of the vote.

    This makes me wonder who in the hell were the 42 percent that actually voted against Barry Sanders? I mean Vikings fans have got to account for like 7 percent. Did Oklahoma fans decide to drive to another state and use their internet to vote?

    Do not be confused when in the year 2025 the game is titled Madden 25 2: Die Maddener.

    It’s March Madness time again and we all know what that means!! It’s Madden cover vote bracket time!!

    Yeah, I know college basketball fans are wondering why football has to try and take attention away from the greatest playoff system going in sports and I am sure Roger Goodell would simply say, “It’s football, f*** you.”

    ESPN.com has the 64 player bracket up and it is a fine list of legends and players from today for you to vote on and see who will grace the 25th anniversary cover of Madden NFL. Although I am not sure why Jake Delhomme is on the list. I was pretty sure I saw him working at a Zaxby’s last week.

    When you go and cast your vote, just remember that even though there is a long list of quality players to choose from they left out the one quarterback that should be on the cover every year.

  • Madden NFL 13 For Wii U Shows Off Its Features

    Madden NFL 13 is coming to the Wii U at launch and it will bring with it a new set of controls that will use the Wii U’s gamepad to call your plays, perform audibles, draw out your own hot routes on the fly and more. Because this game did not have a full development cycle Wii U owners will not get to have the new physics engine that debuted this year in the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the game. One would think that it will be implemented in next year’s version.

    Madden NFL 13 releases on November 18th.

    With almost every MMO going to a free to play model now or in the near future, it appears that the first Guild Wars was way ahead of the curve and has begun a trend. Guild Wars 2 looks to continue the success of it’s predecessor with a story that is set 250 years after the events of Guild Wars.

    Rock Band Blitz (Xbox LIVE, PSN) $15

    Music games may be dead (or hibernating…who knows) but Harmonix is not going to let Rock Band fall by the wayside. Reaching back to their roots Rock Band Blitz lets players play through 25 songs on their controllers with a rhythm game that harkens back to their earlier releases, Amplitude and Frequency. Songs include offerings from: Foo Fighters, Avenged Sevenfold, Queen, Barenaked Ladies and more. The 25 song setlist can also be transferred to your Rock Band 3 playlist for no extra cost as well.

    Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD (PSN) $15

    Released a few weeks ago on Xbox, now PS3 owners can share in the retro goodness of the first two Tony Hawk games. Check out my review here

    Ratchet and Clank Trilogy (PS3) $29.99

    It has already been ten years since the first Ratchet and Clank blasted it’s way onto the PS2 with it’s colorful style, amazing platforming and insane weapon inventory. Now to celebrate Insomniac is releasing the first three games in one collection. Ratchet and Clank, Going Commando and Up Your Arsenal get an HD upgrade with only a 30 dollar price tag. This easily wins bargain of the week. If you have not played one of all of these do yourself a favor and get on it!
