I am proclaiming it already, Comcast has won the "Tech Douchebag of the Year" award.  If the past few years of being in the running wasn't enough, they went and locked up the title this year with today's press release.

Starting October 1st all Comcast customers will now have a 250GB monthly cap for data.  That is upstream and down combined, absolutely ridiculous.  I am going to monitor my bandwidth for the month of the September just on my PC alone, but that won't include the PS3 nor the other…

These shots look pretty damn incredible.  When I first saw these a co…

Some morning news here for your reading pleasure before I head out for the day.  The highlight is the 4 page interview with former Team Ninja head, Tomonobu Itagaki.

Capcom is already preparing for the worst when it comes to Street Fighter 4 lag.  Producer Yoshinori Ono noted in a recent interview that they are looking at all sorts of ways of addressing the issue.  "Trying to balance it up at user interface level and input timing by using joystick" may be one of their options.

Tomonobu Itagaki,…

Another day, another Epic Drop and a new poll!  Next week I will be pretty busy so Kyle may "guest write" the Epic Drop for a night or two.  Be excited, and troll him with the same love you give me!  On with the show!

What happens when you report from a Democratic gathering of Senators and big donors in a private meeting?   You get arrested!  Take that freedom of speech!  An ABC producer was out in Denver for the Democratic National Convention "following the money" and keeping tabs on the …

I can't quite wrap my mind around it yet but apparently Duke Nukem Forever may actually be real!

I know people have been saying this for like the past 10+ years but the crew at 3D Realms had a chat with Team Xbox and the topic of Duke Forever came up while discussing the XBLA port of Duke Nukem 3D.  Word out of president George Broussard is that there are several hours of game play that are playable right at this moment.

He also goes on to say:  "We're actively testing parts of the game and gett…

I have been hearing almost everyone rave about this Braid game, but not having a 360 obviously means I can't play it.  The good news is that it will make it's way to the PC sometime this year at which point I may check it out. 

The game is similar to Portal with its use of the "rewind" gimm…

I love video games.  I presume most of us here feel the same way or maybe a few of you just love WoW.    The fact that there are new video games pretty much every week is one of the best things about being a gamer.  Sure not all titles are worth buying, hell some of them aren't worth pissing on. 

Every now and then though we get titles worthy of our attention and hard earned dollar.  Once in a while that leads too many games, too little time to play them all.  So far this summer has bee…

Karune recently mentioned the Dark Pylon is no longer in the Multiplayer version of StarCraft 2.

The Dark Pylon is not in the multiplayer version of the game. Originally, when it was being tested, it would cloak buildings in a radius around the building, making it more difficult for enemies to scout out 'tech' buildings in a Protoss base, to determine how they were teching. Additionally, it also hid base defenses until they b…

Another early morning edition of the Epic Drop is ready for your reading pleasure.  Tonight's video is one of my favorites ever, you may have seen it before but it is worth a re-watch.

Alabama is going to start using a fat tax when it comes to state employee's health care.  Currently it is free for all these workers but if your BMI is over 35 you will have to pay $25 a month for your health care.  Thoughts on this?  I don't really see the motivation for this as this "punishment" probably isn'…

Just recently Sea.Really took some time out to play two of USA's top players who go by the name of G5 and Machine.
Both matches were played on Andromeda which was a good map for Really to display his awesome skills and high apm.

First up was G5, he opened with a double expansion…

Obama just had to go and take sides didn't he.  He couldn't leave things be with us knowing he was one sided and biased.  Nope, he had to go and talk some ****.

"Oh, that's easy. White Sox. . . . You go to Wrigley Field, you have a beer, beautiful people up there. People aren't watching the game. It's not serious. White Sox, that's baseball. South Side."

These are the words of a complete asshat from a recent ESPN interview.  It is bad enough we have to see images of him parading around in that …

The big demo to hit PSN and Xbox Live last week was Star Wars The Force Unleashed.  Long heralded as the next big title in the SW universe, (at least till that next KOTOR game hits), The Force Unleashed demo delivers. 

Being the Star Wars nut that I am, see Princess Leia & R2 on the right, I eagerly await any quality titles based around the series.  While it may not be KOTOR or Jedi Knight the demo gives me hope that this game will earn it's right to be mentioned in the same breath.
