Review: Love All the People: Letters, Lyrics, Routines
Love All the People: Letters, Lyrics, Routines Bill Hicks Soft Skull Press Street: 2004 For the uninitiated, the book will likely read as a strange, awakening and perversely offensive post-humous chronology of a warped, angry little man, though god-damn funny. To those already primed in the legacy left by Hicks, this book might very well
Review: Pocket Racers
Pocket Racers Konami Reviewed On:PSP Street: 11.06 One in a while I encounter a game that is so flawed (not only in execution but in story and game play) that there is almost a fascination in playing it just to bear witness to it’s mediocrity. Pocket Racers is about a bunch of hip youth whose
Review: Gears of War
Gears of War Epic Games/Microsoft Game Studios Reviewed On: Xbox 360 Street: 11.06 Gears of War was the action game of 2006 and one of the most popular games to be released on the Xbox 360 to date. Not only does the game look great and have some hair-raising action but it steps beyond the
Review: FlatOut 2
FlatOut 2 Bugbear/Vivendi Reviewed On:Xbox Street: 08.06 Last year Bugbear released FlatOut to some fairly dismal reviews.

The Salt Palace Darren DeFrain New Issue Press Street: 10.2005 The Salt Palace was written by some smarty-pants who was obviously raised in Utah. It is a story about a Jack Mormon who goes on a road trip. I honestly didn’t like the story very much at all. It had more holes in it than Tupac’s

Review: WTF
WTF SCEI Reviewed On: PSP Street: 10.17 Have you ever wanted to be a worker in a Third World labor market? Does the term ‘sweat shop’ make you tingle? Does pointless repetition really melt your butter? If you answered yes to any of these questions then not only do you have a problem, but I

Review: Prey
Prey Human Head Studios Reviewed On: XBox 360 / PC Street: 07.11 It seems that sci-fi first person shooter (fps) games are everywhere these days. Games like Halo, Half Life and Doom (and all of their sequels) have established this genre as big money for game developers and guaranteed plenty of mediocre rip offs for gamers.
