I'm the editor of StuffWeLike.com. I like just about everything. Yes that was corny.
I've been doing webdesign since 2000. My longest running website is a fan site for the 1930's pulp hero The Shadow URL TheShadowFan.com.
I do want to work full-time in the video game industry. I've worked at Vivendi Games, Seven Studios, and Union Entertainment. I run my own indie game development and publishing company called Packom Interactive URL PackomInteractive.com.
Currently I'm attending California State University Northridge, studying multimedia. I maintain the Cinema and Television Arts dorm website URL CinemaTVLiving.com.
If this all doesn't give me authority to write credible news, I don't know what will. :)
From the makers of FunnyorDie.com, comes their latest spin-off PWNorDie.com. What’s great about this video site is that it’s geared towards techies at large and of course fanboys are welcome! They’ve already got tons of video game companies putting content up there. They also have Chris Pirillo, Fatal1ty, and yours truly StuffWeLike.
Know you, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. The only thing that’s annoying about the site is the low video resolution. Why would any hardcore gamer want to watch trailers that aren’t in high definition?
I don’t know if this is a glitch or if YouTube is keeping this feature. Previously only YouTube Partner videos auto-played, but now all user channels auto-play.
YouTube has been under scrutuny for how it measures views. Auto-plays used to count as a view, but now that every channel has auto-play enabled, I would imagine that auto-plays no longer count as a view.
I was pretty pissed off when I went to my channel and saw the video auto-play. At first I thought I had become a Partner. Nope.
Now anytime I visit my channel I’ll have to hear myself. How annoying.
Looks like GameTap’s parent company Turner is selling the video game online service. I’ve always liked the GameTap service, but at the same time it has lacked greatly in original and mainstream titles. I reviewed American McGee’s Grimm a couple of days ago, which was a step in the right direction.
Ultimately, GameTap has always appealed on nostalgic gamers. Old games are great for some time, but playing console games on the PC kind of sucks. I need a controller in my hands if I want a nostalgic feel. I do like that I can play tons of retro games, ones that I never bothered renting at the old-school Blockbusters. Oh Blockbuster how I don’t bother going to you anymore. But that’s a different story.
It was also a shame to see GameTap TV axed from its service. Back in the day, I actually used to have GameTap on my computer only for their videos! I didn’t bother playing games on it. Mixing in videos with games is a perfect combo
GameTap should merge with either GameFly, or some film distribution place like NetFlix. Imagine being able to watch movies and play games on your PC with ease.
Hopefully GameTap is able to stand up on its own two feet.
Created in the mid-90s Freakazoid is more of a variety cartoon show. Anything is possible in this super-hero based world. The story doesn’t matter. It’s about the comedy.
The first disk is filled with the best episodes. Disc 2 isn’t nearly as good because they do focus in on story elements.
The special features are just as good as the show. Really funny.
Kids might not get the jokes, but teenagers to adults will.
StuffWeLike.com reviews “American McGee’s Grimm” is a GameTap original episodic game.
Great art style, but the gameplay is a too easy. The comedic fairytale story is what will keep players glued. The game itself can be beat in 30 minutes. Thankfully the price tag for each episode is only $3.99.
Remember that each episode is available for free for the first 24 hours. Episode 1 is free for life.
