In case you didn’t know, the Chinese Democracy of gaming, Duke Nukem Forever, has somehow managed to escape its way into the public, and it’s pretty horrible. Reviews have complained about it being boring/playing like it was made in 1998/etc. But they have also complained about this (skip to about 56 seconds in): Holy shit. […]

Been awhile since I did one of these, eh? Somehow Jim Sterling figured out how to keep making his shitty videos full of delusional crap in which he theoretically illuminates some aspect of gaming (which never needs to actually be illuminated) by spouting off his useless opinions on the matter and acting as if somehow […]

Where to begin with this giant piece of stinking shit? Ostensibly a preview of The Witcher 2, this article goes on way too long, says some amazingly stupid things in confoundedly idiotic ways, and just is perfectly emblematic of the level of quality usually present when gamers are told to write something about their hobby of choice. Amazingly stupid […]

Jim Sterling actually said this: “Personally, I think words like “misogynistic” are getting thrown around so much online that their true meanings are starting to get devalued.” Editor’s note: Jim Sterling keeps on doing what he did here. I am reminded of far too many attempts to “take back” words done by people with no […]

Congrats guys! You win! Go Make Me A Sandwich has a great write up on the various uses of misgynist language on a variety of games-related sites, all spawned by the writer’s growing hatred of Jim Sterling. Welcome to the club. What she finds, though, is that it isn’t just Trenchbloat causing the problems. It’s […]

You know how I said I might try to lay off of Trenchbloat? I lied. He actually made a post (called “Not Racist”) that said this: Pokémon Black and White released today, and you’d be surprised at how many people said they’re opting for White. Obviously, this is utterly racist, as I’m sure you’ve heard 1,000 times on the Internet already […]

Cannot handle sheer amount of stupid bullshit. Games, according to Jim Sterling: -Zelda: Shit -Zelda 2:Shit -Castlevania 2: Shit -Bioshock: GREAT GAME -New Final Fantasy: GREAT GAME Remember kids, new things are always better than old things. Now, I know, in the past, it was marketers just trying to exploit kids (let’s ignore all those games […]

“Words like “rape” and “misogynist” are joining words like “emo” in the ranks of terms that have been so overused on the Internet, their inherent impact has all but disappeared.” Rape = emo in Trenchbloatia.

Somehow, Jim Sterling made an entire video about piracy, and never actually managed to address the core issue of piracy (namely that no material goods are being stolen, and that nobody can successfully demonstrate a correlation between high piracy and loss of sales). Note the added attempt to hide his fatness in the jacket. Also, notice his […]
