June 2009 Top Picks
Six pages of content for June. The two predominant themes this month were Red Faction: Guerilla and mocking Stormblade (although this could be every month). Call of Duty Zombie mode also made an appearance.
Top June Stories by Read count:
- 586 reads – New Zombie Map – overhead view
- 444 reads – Call of Duty WaW — Shi No Numa
- 255 reads – Fine! Draw your own damn logo then!
Call of Duty Shi No Numa seemed to win the reads. I suspect there was some outside readership involved considering the numbers. That's always a good thing. The HoC logo controversy also broke the top three.

Breaking News!
Movie critics and reviewers are about as accurate as weather forecasters!
Went to see Transformers 2: Rise of the fallen with Swag today (insert obligatory Disaster Piece joke here), and the movie was nowhere near as bad as some of those critics would have you believe. If you enjoyed the first one, then you will definatly enjoy this one. It really makes you wonder why some of these people do what they do.
Michael Jackson was a gamer?
CNBC.com reports that Michael Jackson planned to auction off approximately 2,000 of his possessions in April, in order to "get back on stable financial ground". The auction was cancelled after an apparent change of heart (and obligatory lawsuit), but the items were still placed on exhibit. Among the often eccentric (and sometimes disturbing) items were 120 video arcade game consoles, including some full-sized flight simulators. Read more
Thriller
One quote that will always stay with Stormblade and I:
"What's wrong with Michael Jackson?"
This was back around 1990(?) well before Michael Jackson was sick (or weird).
Brilliant!
They should add that by the end of 2010 Revek's collection of crappy movies will have doubled since 2008.
