Screw Attack Find Out What Is More Embarrassing Than E3
You know what might be more embarrassing than the shit shown at E3? Gamers talking about the shit shown at E3. Endless debates over who “won” (it’s a fucking giant advertising event for expensive and completely impractical toys; nobody who isn’t heavily invested in like five giant companies wins at all) compete with silly retrospectives […]
Always Bet On Shitty Rape Jokes
June 15, 2011
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. […]
The Beginning Of What I Am Sure Will Be A Shitload Of Embarrassing E3 Shit.
June 7, 2011
E3 happened, and like all years that E3 happens in, we should be reminded of what a horrible embarrassing hobby we have. I say this not out of any sense of personal shame, because fuck it, it’s my hobby and I will probably never fully stop doing it, but out of this desire that maybe, […]

Who Needs Love When You Can Have Videogames?
June 1, 2011
Reader and previous contributor RobotRocker gave me the image I posted on the Twitter recently, and sent the following explanation: This is it, we have finally found the most pathetic post on the internet [ed. for the moment, never underestimate them gamers]. Over at Eurogamer, they reposted a story from the Daily Mail regarding video […]

“How Can We Belittle EVERY Civil Rights Movement in One Fell Swoop AND Show Off Our Tech-Savvy Privilege at the Same Time?”
May 23, 2011
You know who really needs an advocate in the modern world? People who have enough money to waste that they can throw it away on overpriced entertainment, but feel somehow they are oppressed in their ability to enjoy themselves properly. These people have a RIGHT TO ENJOYMENT, don’t they? We really need to find some […]
Oh Shit, How Did This Happen?
May 16, 2011
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 […]
Women Can’t Design Games, Duh…
May 9, 2011
Reader allen sent me a link to this lovely fucking thread over on TIGSource. When you start a thread with: I have yet to see a girl game designer. It seems rather od that there are close to none out there. you can only go up, right? If the starting poster can’t even bother with […]

SHOCKER: Gamers Still Racist/Sexist/Homophobic Assholes.
April 19, 2011
I think it’s been pretty well established here that gamers can’t really deal with women or people of different races, but what happens when you are both, and you happen to be good at games? Meet BurnYourBra, an African American woman who also happens to be pretty good at Super Street Fighter IV. In a […]
Destructoid Provides So Much Useless Text
April 15, 2011
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 […]
