Why am I not surprised

The only thing more fun than playing video games is playing those same games with your friends. The friendly bantering, food fights, wrestling matches (stalemates have to be decided somehow), etc. It’s always frustrating to know that even when that next great game hits the shelf, you and your friend wont be able to play because alas, he owns a ...

E3: Battlefield 3 Update

After installing BF1942 and playing around with Bad Company 2, I’m pretty skeptical about the upcoming BF3 and it might have a little something to do with EA’s latest blog.  Essentially the highlights of the game pointed out in the blog consist of the ability to go prone, lay down suppressing fire, and more bullshit about a new graphics engine. ...
