As you may have read here before, Call of Duty 4 was coming to the Mac. All this time, the release date was constantly pushed back, frustrating us mac users.

Sony Combines Zombies And... Google Earth So here's a fun sounding idea. You take zombies and cities. You plot them out on a map. Then you use Google Earth to save all the people who were not ready for Z-Day. Brilliance! And it is call The Last Guy. Sounds a bit like playing Infected only using the top down map view, but still, it is a great idea. Could really help you finalize your zombie plan in your own town. Even though it breaks one of the cardinal rules of Z-Day. Read More...

For anyone familiar with most any website, Google Ads is probably a common distraction. The Cyberathlete Amateur League aka CAL, proved today more than ever that it's no exception to the mayhem brought upon by Google's "selection" for the ads generated. Today these lovely ads gracefully advertised "Hacks" on their CS Intermediate division's page in a display of irony that can only be responded by with plenty of laughs. "GET THE BEST WORKING CS HACKS" ...while you check your messages, division news and download the Anti-Cheat System? Read More...

Congratulations to everyone out there who participated!! Read More...

Just when you thought those silly japanese had run out of innocent things to twist into some distorted view of sexuality... they put out boob pudding. Boobies you can eat, literally. Go on, I'll give you a few seconds for that to sink in... Here we have some pictures of the product... you even have to remove the cardboard bra from the suspiciously young looking girl before you can get to what we all know is going to happen: licking the boob. Not only is she winking, but she is also holding her boobs in her hands. Pedophilia and dessert... Read More...

Something Good About The MGO Beta So I was getting really down about all the hoops and crap going along with MGO so far. Read my other Narticles about it, but there have been a load of set backs in my opinion. Then this flies into my view, and you know what? I'm a bit stoked to get in on Friday now, pending any further set backs that Konami might have before that time. The video below shows the Character Creation process for the game. It's not too long and a little bit of sound. Read More...
