Squat of the Month 04/06: Wasp Squat

Thursday, April 20th, 2006

sotm 04 06Spring has sprung, and that means flowers. Flowers mean BEES! And unless you want to end up like Macaulay in My Girl, it means pwning anything with wings and a stinger that comes your way! A gamer’s gotta do what he has to do to protect himself in RL, right?

This little guy got pwned in the worst way… and to make matters worse for his little thorax, Wiggy squatted him afterward. But that’s what happens when you mess with a member of Team Squat.

Getting Lost – Episode 2.19 “S.O.S”

Monday, April 17th, 2006

lost roseSo Im sure all 5 of the people who regular this site have been wondering why there hasn’t been a LOST post yet. Well, as hard as it is to believe, I missed last week’s episode. What can I say, every now and then a guy has to Log out, Turn the TV off and do stuff in RL.

Anyway, a quick trip to lost-tv.com lets you know that there’s no new LOST this wednesday, which is good for me, since it gives me a chance to catch up. However, thanks to the busy bloggers at TV Squad, I already spoilered it… and that’s why I’m writing this post.

Getting Lost – Episode 2.18 “Dave”

Wednesday, April 5th, 2006

hurley noobOK, in this week’s episode we find out the darker side of Hurley’s past. In flashbacks, Hurley’s doc in the mental ward convinces him with a polaroid that his friend “Dave”, who’s been influencing him to binge and not take his meds, has something in common with the Tooth Fairy and Santa Claus. In other words, he doesn’t exist. (or so we’re lead to believe, back to that in a minute) Hurley denies Dave’s existence, gets better, leaves the mental hospital, yadda yadda yadda… island.

Sidekick Game Reviews: Part 1

Wednesday, April 5th, 2006

sk2So I’m such a gamer that I even need to support my habit by playing these goofy little games for my T-mobile Sidekick. I’ve had both the SKI and SKII and I gotta say they’re pretty nifty. They give the most bang for the buck that I’ve seen in a while in terms of tech, though they are far from flawless. These days, 300 or so bucks will get you a Treo which is more powerful but not nearly as sexay.

Anyways, I haven’t been able to find much in terms of SK game reviews, so why not post some of my own? I’m a t00l, I’ve bought and played the vast majority of SK games, so I’ll be doing reviews in series.

EGM says “DS Lite comes out in May”

Tuesday, April 4th, 2006

ds lite2Unless you’re a n00b, you’ve been hearing about the DS Lite like crazy lately. There’s been much speculation as to when this thing is coming out in the states, so here’s another rumor for ya! Electronic Gaming Monthly claims that the de-uglified, redesigned handheld is coming out in May.

While we’re skeptical of the rumour, we certainly wouldn’t mind it coming out that soon. Metroid Prime Hunters multiplayer on a less-frumpy, brighter screened device can’t come soon enough! Even if it does look like an ipod knockoff from Canal Street…

24: Biggest Twist for the Series?

Tuesday, April 4th, 2006

JackB

My girlfriend said she is not going to be able to keep watching this show if it keeps shocking her like it did last week lol. It is quite a jarring experience, if you know what’s going on. This week’s episode does a perfect job of tying up a few important loose ends and sets the show up for an amazing and unbelievable season finale.
