Sam Barlow has enjoyed an interesting career reviving video game trends and franchises, where Serious Sam, the psychological thriller, and Silent Hill are among his personal handiwork.

In 2013, Nintendo merged their two game development buildings into a single unit. Up to that point, their handheld games were being developed separately from their console counterparts, and the move at the time seemed like a fairly inevitable bit of housekeeping at best.

To the uninitiated, "Clay Fighter Sculptor's Cut" is a sort of "remix" title of the N64 game of almost the same name. The game has the distinction of being the rarest game ever made for the N64, as it was only made available for rental at local Blockbusters across the country. Both the game and the box sell for …

What does this have to do explicitly with video games? Everything and nothing. Whiskey Shivers is the band most famous for being a human centipede bluegrass band, and I thought of y'all when I watched their new one.

No, I cannot compete with the people who have somehow collected every piece of Pokemon merchandise on the planet. I often struggle to remember what Dark types are strong against. And honestly? I left the game sometime after Ruby and Sapphire, never to truly come back to it until Pokemon X and Y.

Feeling bad about not making it to Evo 2013? Well, imagine how the people who DID go, only to place lower than former American Idol winner Taylor Hicks feel.
