Major XBLA Titles Coming in April: Arcade Next

Typically, every summer Microsoft puts together major releases for a promotion known as Summer of Arcade for the XBox Live Arcade. Most people had figured that forthcoming major XBLA titles such as Trials Evolution and Minecraft would be the cornerstones of this year's version. However, yesterday Microsoft announced a new timeframe for their release: Arcade Next.

Memory Lane: Earthworm Jim

In this feature, Humor Tumor looks back fondly at an old Sega Genesis classic: Earthworm Jim.

I once said nostalgia was an iffy thing. It serves to rose tint our past, making us believe that things were fun, or even good. One example that springs prominently to mind is Encino Man. I watched that movie all the time as a kid. A few years ago I had the chance to watch it again...and regretted it dearly. I figured I was an idiot for liking that movie as a child. Watching it years later only proved that, yes indeed, I was a moron.

KGB Top 5: Dead Series We'd Like to See Revived

Trials By Fire: That Muddy Middle

A Man on a Mission: or, Mass Erect: Mass Effect 3 Review: Part 1: Requiem: The Beginning: In Space

Ride the Great Space Coaster as Chris takes you through Part 1 of his two-part Mass Effect 3 review! It's fairly spoiler-free, but be warned, you're on your own!

Mass Effect 3 is a study in opposites. That is to say, what you will get out of the experience relies very strongly on what expectations (and game saves) you are bringing in with you. Chances are, you're either jumping out of your space boots to continue your fight across the galaxy, or you're dreading the gameplay changes you've heard whispers of. BioWare has done much to improve and refine upon the success of Mass Effect 2, but where they have deviated from that formula is where the true nature of ME3 starts to take form. If you have ever considered yourself a fan of the series, you owe it to yourself to see this epic tale to its conclusion. But that’s not to say it’s perfect.

Addiction: The Keplix Story

Addiction is a weighted word. It elicits images of young men wasted away to nothing, slumped over in dark alleys. It makes people think of Requiem for a Dream, of broken dreams and promises, of pain and suffering. Because of this, folks give a lot of funny looks if it's suggested someone is addicted to something unconventional. You need look no further than David Duchovny's sex addiction scandal to realize that the general public has a fairly limited perception of addiction.

I'm addicted to World of Warcraft, and it's not the first time. An alcoholic might refer to it as a relapse, I don't know what I call it.
