Flashback Saturday Morning: New Kids on the Blocks

Everyone has fond memories of their youth when they would wake up at 8am on a Saturday morning (and ironically the ONLY day of the week in which you didn’t complain about being woken up) and rush to their television to catch the latest episode of their favorite cartoons. There was always a plethora of options for …

House Special: The State of Microsoft Gaming

Last week, I posed a question to my Tweeps, “Is Microsoft in a better position at the end of the generation?” The knee-jerk reaction would be of course they are in a better position! They have increased their marketshare by outselling the original Xbox by about 15 million units at this point, and the generation …

House Special: The Fem-Expendables

To steal a line from pretty much any movie commercial that achieves this, “The Expendables is the number one movie in America.” Most aren’t surprised by the success of a movie that so narrowly scoped in on its audience that it had to succeed. The Expendables for anyone living under a rock for the past …

Dual Wielding 4.0001: Gotta Catch ‘em All

Let’s just get this out of the way now. This IS NOT a podcast nor is it Dual Wielding 4. Due to some technical issues, the recording went sour. It happens. We hope to be back this weekend with a brand spanking new episode. That said, some of the recording was salvageable, but instead of …
