We here at That Guy’s are like a family. A weird family, I grant you, but a family nonetheless. There’s nothing I like more than writing stuff that they’ll comment on or even find entertaining counter-culture to the "YAY" games blogs that SATURATE the internet. 95% of them are utter drivel and not worth the time it takes to click a link to get there. What times we have had. The time that Chuff_72 chose the "no" option on the age verification screen on Thrill Kill . The time that Dr Wo 69 woke up from a catatonic stupor to answer the question "What is the administrative centre for Derbyshire?" On Who wants to be a millionaire? and then promptly fell back to sleep (the answer is Matlock btw). The times that Quadbee would beat us on Rally Cross even when he had the worst car. The time that Monfuche threw the pad on the floor and ran in to the bathroom because Silent Hill was too scary, didn’t even pause the game, her fear was that great. We don’t write it f

Richie hasn't been posting because I fired him for writing homoerotic reviews about games that he fancies the male protagonist in. So in the meantime guest writer Marvin Branagh from Resdient Evil 2 will be helping out here. Take it away Marvin....... "You must be the new guy Leon right? Sorry but it looks like your party has been cancelled. Now, this is a story all about how my life got flipped-turned upside down and I liked to take a minute just sit right thereI'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel Air in west Philadelphia born and raised on the playground was where I spent most of my days chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool and all shootin some b-ball outside of the school when a couple of guys who were up to no good startin makin trouble in my neighborhood I got in one lil fight and my mom got scared she said 'You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in bel Air' I begged and pleaded with her day after day but she

This and try not to come. I hate viral blog referencing but I couldn't just rewrite or steal the article from 8 day old Wired News. That would be bad. Anyway if you've already come a click to far to reach this page basically Final Fantasy characters will be unlockable in Mario Hoops for the DS. Great news huh? No because a) It's Mario fucking hoops, why on earth is mario playing basketball? and b) Apart from moogle and cactuar the characters mentioned so far are generic Black Mage, Ninja and White Mage which are a bit pants and a bit too much Final Fantasy 11 for my liking if you know what I mean? Are Square-Enix that retarded? If you own Cloud, Squall, Yuna, Tifa etc.etc.etc. why on earth aren't you putting them in the game? Unless you secretly know that it will be a shit game and are waiting for the That Guy's Game . In which case we accept but with the following stipulations; Tifa is always naked. That's it OK? Phone us tomorrow and we'll finalise every

Deadwina- 10 reasons

TO STAY AT HOME AND PLAY COMPUTER GAMES (With your mates is best but meh!) Well it appears that videogames may be the subject of yet another witch hunt because parents are doing a shit job of looking after their children. Do not worry though if you are in fear that you are addicted to computer games then carry on gaming because if you live a "normal" life this may happen to you... 1) Stabbed on a bus for no reason whatsoever. 2) Stabbed on a bus for standing up for your girlfriend. 3) Shot by the police for no reason whatsoever. 4) Blown up by terrorists (see 9/11 or 7/7 etc.) 5) Raped 6) Get HIV from nutters who are your girlfriend 7) Beaten to death for having your phone in the pub 8) Shot in a drive by 9) Attacked by Chavs because you were there 10) Get run over by a cunt So you see it's the cunts/chavs/neds/townies/terrorists/nutters that run the show now. It used to be the case of wrong place wrong time but now its' just wrong time. So yeah, go out if you

The (Ughh) Nice Post?

Image
OK so maybe it's my time of the month or something but I was going to do a post using some of the photos of the fattest/weirdest looking geeks from Faces of WoW and do a Robin Cooper Alter Ego style thing having everyone as Female Night Elves or whatever and saying that WoW is for weirdos, goths, geeks, loners, teenage boys, who will Ghey cyber you for gold. I was then going to finish off the post by finding the fattest sessile woman and saying it was Richie. However, whilst looking for the freakiest photos I was compelled by the honesty of all of these people and (dare I say it) I was happy for them? I don't even f*cking blog under my real name and they put up their images for all to browse, judge etc. I think sites like this truly reflect the sentiments of this poem , better than any pro-pro gaming league or other attempt to get gaming into the mass mindset. It was also interesting to see the images that people chose to upload; some were funny, others very honest and soul-

The Picture Review of Sonic Rush

Image
Reviews are pretty boring and diverse huh? PLEDGE magazine has taken writing reviews about games to the same level of Wnakiness as NME have writing about music. Bloggers have filled the internet with reviews on games for kids , games that have never actually been released, Gayspot have decided to give up reviewing games with Madden in the title and just give them 10/10 after copying and pasting ONM's reviews of any game with mario in the title (Ctrl-H'ing Mario for Madden). Something Awful have even reduced the review to a single sentence. Richie brought homo-erotic reviews to the internet and now I give you one picture reviews. Sonic Rush Picture Review

iBuzz - Really?

Image
Yeah so what you are seeing pictured is essentially a vibrator, sex toy thingy. This however has one small difference, you see the headphone jack? Yeah! I t plugs into your iPod, I reckon this contraption actually gets folk off in time to the music? Now when I found this I was a little sceptical so I had to check out the site , and yeah it exists! Check it out for yourself. pay attention to the flash add in the bottom corner where it has the iPod silhouette Ads and then zooms in their groins. So my question to you is - What songs would be best?

Review - Super Dragon ball Z

Image
Right well I promised a review of this bad boy A while ago, but it was postponed till Friday 14th July. I have now bought and played this title. This title was intensely anticipated as it is a Dragon ball Z game which was created in collaboration with the original Streetfighter II bloke. This game was originally released in Japan for the arcade machines and it was called Dragon Ball Chou. The Streetfighter II elements are quite evident in the game, the signature “Kamehameha” beam move is the same button input as Ryu’s Hado-ken, and they even gave Goku (the main protagonist of the series) a “Dragon Punch” with the same controls. And that’s is where the coolness ends. The moves don’t translate well to Dragon ball Z, pulling of a combo, feels to contrived, the other Dragon ball Z games seemed to have created a system which is more suited to the universe, with rapid, punches and kicks, rather than the SF II system of Light Punch/Kick, Medium Punch/Kick and Heavy Punch/Kick. Along with a

The future of Games?

What will gaming in the FUTURE be like? In like the year 2010? Some kind of crappy flailing game to do with Arse-sassins is our prediction. Some media progresses but gaming will always be geared around pleasing folks who wear Metallica T-shirts and the like. Sad really.

Radio is WNAK

Right well apparently there is a Radio site called WNAK . Excuse me while i mop the tears of laughter!

FIGHT THE MAN!!

News just in. That Guyer Chuff_72 has just been busted by MR.GAME during a not-so-undercover operation. Tell it like it is Chuff... I just got busted in the name of That Guy's, trying to take a picture of the top ten in GAME, according to the resident retard it is apparently company policy, "because". Anyway I think it was something like this; 1. Cars 2. PotC Dead Man's Chest 3. Over the Hedge 4. The Wild 5. Stormbreaker 6. Winnie the Pooh 7. Trolls 8. Licenced Nikelodeon game 9. Licenced horse game 10.Sonic Advance Battles 2 (or something, yay Sonic Team) This is proof. Empirical proof that Mr.Game is up to something ITS A FUCKING COVER_UP. Commendable Chuff but don't give up now. This war has just begun! Look at those charts and lament.

POST 69 DUDE!

Cunzy : So we made it this far. Not bad girl? Our 69th post what an auspicous occasion! It's been tough, real tough but we made it. What was your favourite post? Richie: My favorite and possibly most neglected ones is Geekonator2000, I feel that, that one should be continuously expanded on... But i fucking hate the Londonage posts what the hell was i thinking? Cunzy: Yeah that was a good one! I think my favourite post was this one . Because of the high quality of the comments and nothing at all to do with that filthy picture. No sir! I'm still writing my post to Mr.Game by the way! Richie : Lets not forget our commentors, we've had at least 5, Dr Wo, Chuff, Chunky Salsa, Quadbee. Do you remember the time that possibly a girl made comment on this post? Cunzy : Yeah! She was all like "Cunzy is a dick and Richie is god". I never suspected that it was you at all and I still don't! LOLLERCAUST! Favourite comment? Richie: It has to be this one for the "

Sony's New Ad Campaign...

Image
In an attempt to appease the recent surge of Girl Gamers:

Sony PSP apology.

Image
For those of you who dont know, Sony recently released this Ad: And there was a shed load of controversy about the racial connotations behind it. Well apparently Sony have now apologised for this and withdrawn the advert. However the Guardian Gamesblog (See link on sidebar) has given me an idea: Controversy Sells, The guardian was talking about whet next campaign they will come up with next, offending religions? Well lets leave the racial offendingness aside, How else could Sony market this “ P retty S hit P roduct”? Ideas?

AMAZING Dinosaurs in Games Review!!

Image
I fucking love (Non Avian) dinosaurs! Seriously! If I had to choose my top 5 fantasy mates it would be dinosaurs. If I could have sex with anyone dead or alive it would be dinosaurs ALIVE! And there is nothing I like more than dinosaurs and other extinct organisms in computer games. I mean serious dinosaurs NOT this shit or this shit . Here we go. Top however many I get to Greatest Dinosaur Games of ALL TIME 1. DINO CRISIS 1 & 2 Not 3 though because it has fake dinosaurs. Who would bother with making a game called dino crisis and then rendering fake dinosaurs. Anyway, you get to fight dinosaurs and pick up files bout dinosaurs like a Michel Benton book! The second one is better because you can run and shoot AND YOU CAN’T EVEN DO THAT IN RESIDENT EVIL 4! SPOILER Also, after being chased by T-rex through most of the game fucking Giganotosaurus eats it because it is bigger and some people still don’t even realise that T-rex wasn’t the biggest. Capcom are proper 1337 verteb

Video Game comics

Right well I have been quiet for a while as I have been trying to write a definitive guide to Web-comics, and well… FUCK IT! There’s to many of them, I can’t even hope to try review/rate them, as there is a shed-load of shitty ones out there. I mean how do you review them? It’s like games, some of them are quite pretty yet are not funny/interesting/good. And some of the shitter looking ones are actually funny. You get my analogy? Anyways here is a few web comics we have come across God Mode Online VG Cats Little Gamers And here’s an archive of pretty much EVERY web comic you can ever hope to find/read: The Web Comic List
