Oh well. It’s now free for Windows-based PC games, whereas before only people with the premium gold membership could utilize functions like playing online games with each other. Now, however, according to a Gamespot article (almost cited it as Gamestop), and confirmed by an InformationWeek article that the PC-version of Xbox-Live is now [...]

Yes, I know it’s supposed to be “Defense” but that’s how the author spells it =P
It’s a corny (acorny?) flash game where you’re a squirrel sitting on a tree branch and you throw nuts at oncoming predators (who gnaw at the tree briefly) while you try to protect it. It’s not terrible, but the absence [...]

Here’s a very simple and quick flash game where you move the mouse cursor (in the shape of a peculiar bird) that eats fruit and avoids missles. It’s a side-scroller, but with the additional variable that animal characters are moving around the edges of the game screen and modifying it (shaking it, resizing it, [...]

I’ve stumbled across HaloTube.com that only hosts Halo-related videos, with a max upload of 200mb and just about any filetype permissible. I’m in the process of uploading a bunch of my collection to get a little more exposure for the site ^_^
The site looks largely like a YouTube clone, even down to the upload [...]

It just occured to me that I never did actually post an entry about the first Clearing the Backlog iteration, because I was updating the Halo 3 Videos page and I could find anything with a search for RROD. So here it is! I didn’t call it Clearing the Backlog then, but that’s [...]

News of the Undead Scarab is pretty old by now, but I recently came across it on fileshare and wanted to post my own cinematic of it. I did so, at the tail end of a collection I’ve come to describe as “Clearing the Backlog”.. being a bunch of space-taking clips on my x360’s [...]

Normally in VIP games, the goal is to kill the VIP on the other team. I actually managed to get a Double Kill, both of them being other-team VIP’s, and both of them by Assassination..
However, the game is on Rocket Race, and there are only two people on that team anyway =P

Some fortunate individualss managed to launch a warthog on Sandtrap’s high cliff ledge, make it go high enough to hit the invisible ceiling barrier, and land in one of the square-shaped structures near the outside edge on the other side (where the missle pod spawns). Not too shabby!

I was running through the credits on a facebook app I frequent, Super Slot Machines, and I was getting a lot of really good wins for some reason. I got no less than 600 tokens in winnings today, including extra keys that I sold off. I casually checked the time of day, and it [...]

This nifty flash game is a pretty simple-but-well-planned escape adventure where you’re trapped in a small school trying to get out. The controls should be fairly intuitive.. click where you want to go and to pick up stuff.
When I started playing this game I got stuck on something really simple, so I looked [...]

There’s one room in the Shivering Isles expansion pack for Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion that you’ll never get to visit the same way twice in one save — and that’s what I call the Butterfly Room. It’s a room that is a gateway to the Shilvering Isles area and at first is just a [...]

Ever since I played the Standoff level, I wanted to go explore those buildings way off in the distance — but you can’t get there the regular way. Enter the Insta-Death Spawn trick.. Not my idea, but a much better tutorial of how to get it accomplished than most of the other tutorials I’ve [...]

There’s a handy little piece of armor you can swim underwater to get and it’s right out in plain sight. It lets you see in the dark, detect creatures as they approach without having to see them directly, and allows you to breathe underwater. It’s the “Fin Gleam” helment, and this video I [...]

I got up to level 32 before my lives ran out. Caution — your health meter doesn’t recharge on the next level. The game itself is a simple 2D platformer where you use arrow keys to move side to side, jump and duck. There’s no shooting anything. Your little avatar can, in a [...]

I was checking out the message boards for Facebook’s Bowling Buddies application, a little flash game where you bowl the ball with the mouse, down a little animated lane. Apparently, there had been some difficulty in getting two things: the clown achievement, and 40+mph rolling speeds. So, I picked off two birds with [...]

Multiple sources seem to indicate that a new Line Rider video is, indeed, an actual McDonald’s commercial. The video below is a 30-second cut of the commercial. There is also a 10-second version. References one, two, three, four..
Line Rider is a fairly well-known website flash drawing “game” where you can experiment with making [...]

There’s a really good game out there but it requires a bit of two-hand simultaneous coordination. It’s called RoboKill and I would characterize it as a cross between Smash TV, Legend of Zelda, set in the time period of the old arcade classic Berzerk.
You’re a little robot, seen from the overhead perspective of Zelda-style, [...]
