“Make sure to follow @SamitSarkar - a very welcome addition to game critic world....”
– Ian Cummings, the Lead Designer of Madden NFL 10 I currently have an un-eraseable, ear-to-ear grin on my face. Thanks, Ian — you have no idea how much this means to me (and I don’t just mean the 32 Twitter followers I’ve gained tonight).

Yankees’ Patrons in Not-So-Cheap Seats Also... →
The Yankees did not consider giving refunds or credits to fans in nonpremium seats because Hal Steinbrenner felt only a small number of top-tier tickets were overpriced.
The view is contradicted by Team Marketing Report’s calculation that nonpremium seat prices rose 76 percent from last year. The Yankees’ philosophy must be this: if sections are sold out — or if they don’t get much camera time —...

“Our initial reports on human technology are sketchy at best.
Their armor is composed of synthetic alloys we have yet to reproduce that absorbs our energy based weaponry. Further, their evolutionary paths and planet geology have forced them to be physically resistant to our radiation based weaponry. At best it mildly irritates the skin of weaker individuals.

a scholarly paper on ducks with no pants
inthefade:
I was innocently looking for a pig picture to photoshop and I landed on a drawing of Porky Pig and I broke out in hives. Because you know what creeps me out? Animated animals who wear shirts, but no pants.
Like Donald Duck, for instance. Donald wears that stupid sailor shirt, BUT NO PANTS. I keep looking for his duck dong. Not because I want to see it but because it’s pretty damn...

Today, I was taking the subway to work when I saw a really hot girl. Noticing that she, like me, had a Dunkin Donut’s coffee, I tried to start a conversation by saying, “Is that Double D’s you have there?” She didn’t pick up that I was talking about the Coffee. FML

Bone, a Masterpiece of Elastic Strength →
Bone is built of two basic components: flexible fibers of collagen and brittle chains of the calcium-rich mineral hydroxyapatite. But those relatively simple ingredients, the springy and the salty, are woven together into such a complex cat’s cradle of interdigitating layers that the result is an engineering masterpiece of tensile, compressive and elastic strength. “We only wish we could mimic...

I Call Bullshit: Hardcore Elitism →
I’ve got to say, I’m getting a little tired of this kind of us-versus-the-newcomers mentality among the “hardcore” gaming set. Yes, more people are playing games now, but this is not a bad thing! In fact, it’s been vital to making the industry as exciting and varied and downright enjoyable as it is today.
You know why EA can afford to invest in new IP like Brütal...

Here’s a little gem for you…I found this on the Wayback Machine today. This was probably the 3rd rebuild I did on this site, so it isn’t the very original design. I was probably about 11-12 years old when I did this. Check out some of the “reviews” and “preivews” wow I was such a little dork back then!
Oh my god — I literally forgot about guestbooks for the past decade until right...
