I had the pleasure of taking the Oculus Rift for a spin yesterday and boy am I excited. While the development model is but a shadow of what the retail version will be, it still blew my expectations out of the water. While I was pretty adamant about the recent 3D trend being nothing more… Continue reading
Today I spent most of my time at the CEDIA Expo in Indianapolis. While there, I got some hands on time with a Sony Tablet S, a 3D gaming experience for the PS3, and a 3D 1st person shooter game for the Xbox 360. I’m going to give all three some love and end… Continue reading
Seriously, you have no idea how excited we are to talk about video games again. Through audio difficulties the crew is back. After a GenCon detour Justin, Cole, Ethan, Justin, and Josh comb through headlines of July to see if any of them matter. Send in your questions to simon@horriblenight.com or @TheHorribleShow Long Description Coming… Continue reading
Earnings calls were this week with THQ and Nintendo trying to right their respective ships. This led to some good news for gamers (price cuts) and bad news (failing franchises). With the podcast taking two weeks off we still cranked out a few original editorials and picked up Cole’s jaw from off the floor after… Continue reading
E3 week continues as we set our sights on the Nintendo press conference and their new… console?

As much as we might not want to accept it, 3D is in our lives. With movies like Avatar making over a billion dollars at the box office, video games are trying to get some of that money for themselves. Nintendo and Sony both made their tech known and here is JDevL and my take… Continue reading
The E3 minicast of The Horrible Show, Justin, Cole, and Christina take on the press conferences of Microsoft, Nintendo, and Sony. We react to the Kinect, PlayStation Move, and Nintendo 3DS while we continue to hope 3D gaming just goes away. Send in your questions to simon@horriblenight.com The Indiana storms could not stop us, and… Continue reading
Winner for the most dry press conference goes to Sony. Overall a very solid show, but it failed to surprise or have a huge impact on the audience. They did detail the release of the PlayStation Move, reveal their PSN subscription program PlayStation Plus, but Kevin Butler stole the show with his inspirational speech to all gamers….

E3 is upon us. Of course the best part of E3 is that the most newsworthy bits of information come out before it all actually starts, thanks to the media conferences all of the major companies put on. You can watch the conferences on your tv on G4, and online via UStream.tv and Gametrailers.com. Here’s… Continue reading
