Someone in L.A. is a Barack Obama fan:



"Attack of the Show" producer Luke Wahl snapped the above photo, along with a few Obama Iron Man posters.


CNN's Glenn Beck is receiving quite a bit of negative feedback for his factually challenged report the other day on "Grand Theft Morality". Instead of taking the criticism seriously, he opted to personally attack those who dared challenge him:

I will tell you that all these video gamers… they’re bloggers, as well as video gamers - they’re writing all kinds of stuff about me [that] I’m the enemy now of video gamers. I could care less about video games. Video game bloggers? They’re losers…

Ah well. I guess when it comes from the guy who calls Katrina survivors "scumbags" and admits to hating 9/11 families, I can't take it too personally.

It seems Yahtzee received a wee bit of negative feedback for his Super Smash Bros. Brawl review. So, instead of reviewing a game this week, he's opted to review you, the viewer. Super bonus, it includes one of the funnier GameSpot digs I've ever heard.



For the record, it is my opinion that gamers are split into two groups: Those who love Super Smash Bros. and those who don't. I, along with Yahtzee, fall into the latter group, and I thank him for both his review of the game and his response to those who can't handle the criticism.


Joystiq is today reporting that LittleBigPlanet, the highly anticipated community-platformer for the PS3, has received an October 2008 release date.

For those of you who can't wait for the June 3rd release of The Bourne Conspiracy (PS3, Xbox 360), you can wet your whistle today by hopping on Xbox Live and downloading the playable demo.

Prefer a PS3 demo? You'll have to wait until Thursday for your Bourne adventure.

We're please to report that the Lunabean "GTA4" Walkthrough is progressing nicely.

For your convenience, we have broken it up into three sections:

GTA4 Main Missions Walkthrough

GTA4 Extras and Odd Jobs

GTA4 Pigeons

I'm currently working on the Pigeons section, and will be adding to it all day. If anybody knows where to find the pigeon on the west side of East Borough Bridge, let me know in the comments as it's driving me crazy, crazy I tell you!

UPDATE: Here is a link to the video: Glenn Beck on "GTA4".

On last night's Glenn Beck, Beck thoughtfully dissects the morality of "Grand Theft Auto". Oh wait. No he didn't.

Instead, Beck ran a clinic on how to be a misinformed idiot who pulled the good ol' "sex with prostitutes and then kill them with a baseball bat" line out of the GTA-bashing repository that, apparently, all TV pundits visit.

What always amazes me with these people is that the things that they say are in the game, are really things that they'd want to do in the game if they ever played it. You know that if Glenn Beck ever sat down with this game the first thing he'd do is find a prostitute and then murder her.

Well, this should be entertaining. Jack Thompson, the self-proclaimed crusader against video game violence, will be appearing on "The Glenn Beck Show" this evening. Glenn Beck, of course, is the self-proclaimed crusader against Katrina victims, 9-11 families, and, well, thinking human beings.

Again...it should be interesting...
