I recently had a case of the random nostalgia; you know, when you look up random stuff that wowed you before you became a cynical bastard. My latest fix had me looking up The Pharcyde’s music video for “Drop.” Read the rest of this entry »

Ms. “Champagne” King is best known for singing about shame and how some fellow made her love come down. Those staples are fine by me but my toes get to tappin’ whenever “I’m In Love” hits the ‘ol Victrola. Blame the bass line because Read the rest of this entry »

The sun doesn’t shine much on the Nets these days. Deron Williams is practically working as a temporary employee and he’s put up some stinkers so far. However something clicked in his dominant performance in the embers of last night’s game against the Sixers. Read the rest of this entry »

A Friday night game featuring the Clips and the T’wolves would’ve got the gas face anytime before this season.

Here’s a quick exercise. Log on to Megaupload. Can’t get on, huh? Ars Technica reports the site has been shut down Read the rest of this entry »

Here’s the scene. Let’s say you’re the head coach of the Miami Heat and you’re down one with 16 ticks on the clock. You can get a one possession lead with the right play call. Who gets their name drawn for the potential dagger? Read the rest of this entry »

Second-year prospect John Wall had a shaky rookie season thanks to a lingering injury.

Let’s say you’ve logged more than a few hours on Battlefield 3 but realized it’s maps got long in the tooth. What to do oh troubled couch marine? Well this month EA heard you and was all, “We got maps on maps on maps!” in the vein of YC. And here we are with Back To Karkand (PC, PS3, Xbox 360), Battlefield 3′s first downloadable expansion pack. Read the rest of this entry »

New York’s Knickerbockers have plenty to smile about these days. Tyson Chandler’s on deck to enforce inside which, on paper, should energize NY’s defensive efforts all around. The club’s a point guard, and a head coach depending on who you ask, away from being a league wide problem. However, as any sports fans know, things weren’t always so promising at the Garden.

The FIFA series has provided more than triumph and heartbreak on the virtual pitch for almost two decades. EA’s golden line of footie games has long featured an eclectic mix of records featuring artists from all over the globe. Besides, it only makes sense for the world’s game to headline acts from the US to New Zealand. The series’s tunes has long served as a great way to expand your listening boundaries.

The video game world’s been gun crazy for who knows how long. Shooters have taken the industry by storm and heavyweights like Battlefield 3 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360) prove there’s no stopping the genre’s stranglehold on the market.
