"We didn't have these kind of toys in Stalin's Russia"

An amazing new high for two player Der Riese

So Sega Nite was yet again a bust as only Graybush and I showed up. So, basically, just another night.

We played Zombies again. Shocker I know. But we were prepared to quit out when Coxxorz joined.

Up until we passed Level 26 that was. After Level 26 we were finishing the round no matter what.

Turned out to be a non-issue as Coxxorz didn't appear until after we flamed out at Level 30.

EBGames trade 2 for 1 September deal

By Blackwalt - Posted on 02 September 2010

I couldn't get Coxxorz to post this because someone stole his copy of the flyer

FrontFront

What? You can't prove it was me. You can't.

So I don't usually post these types of deals because of my opinion of EBGames used games market. I still buy their used games but I have issues with their power in the used game market.

But...

And I mean but...

Not listed as an available new game (but included according to store staff) is Halo Reach.

Personal Game Reviewer's reaction to this announcement? "Seriously... who complains about the D-Pad??!!"

It deteriorated from there…

Microsoft copies Nintendo again with a revised D-pad

By Swag - Posted on 01 September 2010

I guess they realize that their d-pad sucks, and trying to press a diagonal is almost impossible (try setting hotkeys in a game like Fallout 3 to see why).

So what can they do but copy Nintendo?

"Hi I'm Dempsey, and you are..." not Stormblade

By Blackwalt - Posted on 31 August 2010

Wait? Three player Zombie Mode without Stormblade? How does that work?

Quite well actually.

HoC Picture of the Day – 08282010

With water balloons and a sprinkler? Not to mention a Lego themed birthday party?

Of course it was.

Mod with Coxxorz

By Blackwalt - Posted on 28 August 2010

To go along with his hard drive-less $150 Xbox 360 Slim deal

It is technically possible to put you old Xbox hard drive into your new Xbox Slim. Advised? No. Possible? Yes.

This procedure is at YOUR OWN RISK, it is not HoC sanctioned or even remotely recommended.

    From JoystiqWe're no good with screwdrivers -- OK, well, some of us are -- so we'd probably never attempt to mod our shiny new 4GB Xbox 360 S by fitting an old hard drive in it. If you're braver than us (very likely), feel free to check out the step-by-step guide past the break, which pulls back the curtain on the magical process of techno-wizardy fueling this hybrid of form and frugality.
