Fanatical About “Gordon” As a teenager I would think that watching a NASCAR race was about the most boring way to spend four hours or more every weekend; although every weekend my step-father would persistently watch cars race around in a circle. My opinion began to change in 1993 after a get-together with co-workers. They would get-together between the work weeks and grill out, drink beer and watch the race. In “93” I became a part of this ritual although I still didn’t care very much about…

There are a lot of games out there that I love to play such as Madden, NBA 2k etc. There are a lot of games that I couldn’t play when I was a younger age such as Grand Theft Auto, Call of Duty were the big ones. I didn’t really understand why I couldn’t play them when I was younger. Today I see why my parents didn’t let me play…

The game "Metal Gear Solid 3", a prequel in the Metal Gear franchise, is set in a time of fear and uncertainty in the face of a potentially devastating future.

Other war games of the time were based in famous battles and bloodshed, but "Metal Gear Solid 3" based itself in an unseen war, using its darkness to…
Within the past decade, the term tacky went from something that you would avoid at all cost when it came to fashion to something you sought to achieve. Well, perhaps it would be best to quantify that statement just a bit. Not just tacky in a general sense but a tacky Christmas sweater. Yep, not only have the hideous monstrosities that we all either hid in the back of our closets or donated to our local charities made a comeback, they have even made their way onto the shelves of high end retails…
What’s the difference between “Grand Theft Auto V” (GTA V) and boxing? For starters, GTA V is a video game, and boxing is a competitive sport. One side is influenced by money, weapons, sex, and drugs. The other is influenced by physical brutality and roaring chants of spectators. Both of these two have their differences, but one thing that they primarily share is violence. Statistics show that GTA V was a record breaking video game seller – having sold over 34 million copies.
