In this episode of "Adventures in Batsh*t Insane PC Gamer Trickery," we get to see how a conversion of Left 4 Dead to the Left 4 Dead 2 standard is done. Someone was crazy enough to bring the first game's campaigns into the sequel, and it's paid off. Mostly. You see, there is ...

Review: Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles
When I first heard that Capcom's next Resident Evil game was going to be a sequel to the Wii-exclusive Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles , I was pretty disappointed. Umbrella Chronicles actually turned out to be great -- much better than I thought it would be -- but still, ...

The Beatles: Rock Band gets a new holiday commercial
Every time that launch commercial for The Beatles: Rock Band makes an appearance, I'm always blown away by how fantastic it really is. I'm still not certain how the advertisement was crafted, although that's a good thing. It adds to the mystery. As we inch closer to the holiday season, ...

Friday Night Fights: Left 4 Dead 2 edition
Ah, Left 4 Dead 2 . The last major release for this year on my "why haven't you got this yet?" list. I figured it would be worth pacing myself with Modern Warfare 2 as the go-to multiplayer game, at least until L4D2 became cheaper during Black Friday or Cyber Monday. On multiple ...

You will never look at Mario the same way again
What is it about this obese Mario mask that makes it so damned terrifying? My immediate thought was the tongue. Oh God, the tongue! But then my eyes were drawn to the bulbous red nose. Has Mario ever had a red nose before? He does now. Finally, I figured out what made the ...

What the foxtrot? Jurassic: The Hunted gets an XBL demo
I'm starting to feel legitimately bad for giving Jurassic: The Hunted so much positive attention. Some people seem to be mistaking our affection for the game as completely sincere, thinking it's good-good when it's actually bad-good. You know, the kind of bad that makes you giggle? ...
