Ah, it’s been a while since I’ve shared a Computer Chronicles episode! In this particular episode we have an assortment of “online tips,” such as internet etiquette (netiquitte, a concept which never seems to have taken off), keeping kids safe online with blocking software (software which seems to always be easily circumvented) and the introduction […]
It’s almost October, which means it’s time for another Monster Madness! This is the 10th, and “final” year of the series by James Rolfe, the content creator most famous for the Angry Video Game Nerd character. Monster Madness is a video series where James takes a look at horror movies, reviewing and commenting on them […]
When you think of Nintendo, you think Mario, Pokemon, Metroid. When you think of Sega, you think Sonic. When you think of Marvel, you think Iron Man, Spider-Man, The Hulk. When you think of DC Comics, you think of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman. These are all intellectual properties protected under a law statute known as […]
Do you speak Korean and English, and are you willing to translate a set of song lyrics and obscure news and media websites for an upcoming Xadara project? If so, then I need you! I’m looking for someone who fits the above to assist in the creation of a website that will encompass a specific […]
I’ve written before about how I have somehow got interested in collecting HD-DVD format films. They are a cheap way to get a high quality film experience that, while not as good as modern Blu-Ray, is still better than a standard DVD. It is, however, a dead format, and has been since 2008. All the […]
These days, if you want to watch a TV show, or a movie, or heck, even play a game, you can pretty much do it on any device you wish. Your computer, game console, phone, and even sometimes directly your TV itself can access YouTube, Netflix, Hulu, and other services for immediate streaming of videos. […]
James Rolfe, best known for his online video series “The Angry Video Game Nerd” is quite the fan of cinematography, the actual process of movie making. While the AVGN online web series is his best known work, and certainly makes up a vast majority of his video production work, James has produced well over 400 […]
August looks like it’s going to be an awesome month for free games from the Games With Gold program. Previous months have been hit or miss, but this month I think, depending on the kind of gamer you are, will more than make up for it. Let’s begin! Xbox One Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate The […]
So, Nintendo rolled out the first promotional video for the NES Classic Edition, and it’s a nice little throw back to the good old days, even including the “Now you’re playing with power” slogan from the late 80’s and early 90’s that worked so well for them. I’m still optimistic about the plug-and-play system, as […]
This whole article should go without saying – it shouldn’t need to be made, but screw it, I need to vent about this. YouTube comments are, as the title states, absolute garbage, in many ways worse than most of the internet as far as open commentary goes, and it’s really pathetic that this is the […]
Ah, the 90’s, when the Internet was in it’s infancy and cheaply made self help tapes were all the rage. I stumbled across this little gem a few years back on YouTube, and found it again the other day. Oh boy, this is something else. Filled with terrible jokes, cruddy acting, and some actually decent […]
Pokemon Go, yet another one of those love it or hate it kind of things. Me? I’m positive to it, but indifferent. Being a Windows Phone user, my phone, needless to say, doesn’t have a version for it, nor are any of my android devices capable of running the game, meaning, I’m pretty much out […]
As is obvious to anyone who knows me, I enjoy classic gaming. While not an obsessive Nintendo fan like many people my generation, I do enjoy the good old Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) quite a bit; I was just playing Mario 3 a few days ago, and I always enjoy popping a cart in and […]
This time last week I was in Downtown Memphis at Anime Blues Con 6. I only was able to go 1 day this year, and Saturday was that day. While it was only a week ago, it feels like longer than that since I was quite tired at the convention, and such fun events tend […]
Heads up: this is a rather disjointed rant. Get over it. I play video games to have fun, relax, and enjoy myself. It’s my hobby, something I do because it pleases me. When I play a game, I expect to have a challenge, sure, but I do expect that challenge to be fair, to make […]
