Some of my earliest video game memories include the Atari 2600, and other than Commodore, no other company out there has as much sentimental value to me.  While the days of Nolan Bushnell are long gone and the property has bounced around between holding companies for a while, it looks like the Atari brand is coming back with a new tactic.  Online games. Their new website includes a bunch of f... more.

Jeff Strain knows his thing. He was part of the success Blizzard had with Diablo and Starcraft and worked on World of Warcraft before he went on to found ArenaNet, who made Guild Wars, which in its own way was wildly successful (but it's not an MMORPG!)

Apparently EA isn't just mad at their internal staff.  EA's CEO John Riccitiello is cussing out Nintendo and the Wii for lackluster game sales on the platform.  Really, who couldn't see Nintendo taking a nosedive at some point?  It's kind of like the Foreman Grill, once everyone has one, there's noone left to buy them anymore.  I think the Wii has saturated the market and it's novelty factor h... more.

That's right.  If you are looking for cheap versions of your favorite Gap clothes, and don't mind subsidizing years and years of some of the worst TV commercials ever made, then head on down to Old Navy at 3am on Black Friday.  Man, sometimes the snark cannot be emphasized enough: Free Lego Rock Band Video Game With Any $20 Purchase Free Rock Band Guitar With Purchase Of Rock Band 2 Don't a... more.

Do you like playing games?  Can you write?  Can you at least form a sentence?  Can you read without mouthing the words?  Show me on the doll where Electronic Arts touched you. If you're interested, please drop us a line with a link to a writing sample and at least 15 personal references that aren't your current Facebook friends.  Well, that last part is negotiable.... more.
