I think I’m listening to too much Kanye.

1.) Watch the screenwriter of Bloodrayne talk about working with Uwe Boll. 2.) Invite all your friends over to have Uwe Boll movie marathon. 3.) Wear the right shoes, drink the kool-aid.

Also, never forget that I saw Bloodrayne IN THE THEATER.

Super Mario 3D Land

Wow. There was like a brief week and a half here where I figured I could skip this game. Then they release a video of Mario with a boomerang. Nevermind. DAY ONE.

Today, I am the 99%. Tomorrow, I’ll forget all about that shit and become the goddamned Batman.

-from the Batman Arkham City thread on NeoGAF. Man, I love GAF.

Amazon says it’s preparing my order. Tomorrow can’t come soon enough.

I downloaded this game because it’s free in the app store, but that was weeks ago, and now I’m 64 floors in and I bought an iPad as a productivity tool but now I’m just using it to play this stupid thing and I had to turn the push alerts off because I kept stopping working at work BECAUSE MY TOWER JUST DINGED AND SOMETHING NEEDS RESTOCKING and IS THIS WHY MY GIRLFRIEND BROKE UP WITH ME and DID YOU KNOW A PERSON CAN GET ALL THE R.E.M. SLEEP THEY NEED EVEN IF THEY WAKE UP EVERY FIFTEEN MINUTES TO CHECK ON THEIR TOWER? WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU’RE SLEEPY? IT FEELS LIKE YOU’RE IN A NIGHTMARE FROM WHICH THERE IS NO WAKE? THAT’S WHAT COFFEE IS FOR, YOU FUCKING AMATEUR.
Tiny Tower isn’t a Game - in which I sort of review Tiny Tower, a game for iPhone and iPad.

boughtthis: Blanka figure by Kid Robot. They’re random. This is the second one that I’ve bought. I mostly just want Ryu. This is pretty cool, though. Blanka is the first Street Fighter character that I ever played as, because I had no idea what I was doing, and my friends told me to just hit light-punch over and over again to shock people. That’s still pretty much my Street Fighter strategy. Yeah. I guess I started another Tumblr where I’ll take pictures of stupid stuff I buy. Follow it if you want, but I’ll probably forget about it tomorrow.

Gears of War 3 is the first real ending to a videogame trilogy that I’ve ever seen. So many videogame series call themselves trilogies, but when it comes time to actually say goodbye, most refuse to go. They start to pack up their things, begin to tie up their storylines, but then they smile and nod at you and whisper, “Wait, I can still suck more money out of you! Let’s not tie up everything, okay?” Gears doesn’t do this, either with its story or its gameplay. This is the end of the Gears of War trilogy, and it feels like an ending, and that is the highest praise that I can bestow on it.
Why I Love Gears of War 3 | Multiplayer Singleplayer - here’s an article I wrote about why I love the story and gameplay mechanics in Gears of War 3. Read it, won’t you?

This is the first of three Call of Duty XP videos that I made and will be releasing this week. This one is a crazy Apocalypse Now parody. It may be the most ambitious video that I’ve made since college. Big thanks to P. Nathan Smith for the original idea, camerawork, and general producing skills. And let’s not forget Evan Campbell who did all of the great on-location filming. You guys are superstars, and I hope you enjoy this batshit insane video.

I also shot a video with comedians Kumail Nanjiani and Steve Agee at the event, and that will be premiering at The Meltdown Show this Wednesday night at Meltdown Comics here in LA. You should all come because the show is always a blast, plus there will be a little video that I made playing there this week.

Stay tuned for links to the other videos later on in the week. And get ready for a bunch of Gears of War 3 videos coming very very soon!

Someone is making a version of Super Mario Bros with a Portal gun. This is all kinds of cool. I would love to see Valve team up with other companies to have a Portal game that collected all kinds of classic games like this and augmented them with a Portal gun.

So cool.

Last week I went to the iam8bit art gallery opening here in Los Angeles. Armed with my Canon T3i, I was the only person with a huge tripod (everyone else had fancy steadycam setups). I was there on assignment for videogame website Bitmob, so I got to go in an hour before they opened, interview the artists, and get some great footage. Big thanks to Evan Campbell for writing all the questions and doing all the great interviewing (he’s off camera asking questions in every interview shot), Chloe Dykstra for acting silly in front of the camera, and Alejandro Quan-Madrid for providing the awesome background music.

It was a blast being there and carving the raw footage into this final piece. Hope you guys get a kick out of it.
