Gabe: Happy Cyber Monday everyone. I'm told that you guys will be buying all kinds of stuff online today. It just so happens that I sell things online. Maybe we can work something out? It's getting colder everyday. Do you

Tycho: There is a build in Modern Warfare 2 - Tactical Knife, Commando, Marathon, and Lightweight - that we have taken to calling the Witch. They are so called because this nefarious combination results in half-human abominations that can a)

Gabe: We've been talking about First Party for a long time and yesterday the site finally went live. We love making T-shirts and we have no intention of stopping, but not everyone can, or wants to wear T-shirts all the

Gabe: If my life was a newspaper you could say that these two comics were "ripped from the headlines". I still have flash backs about my time at Toys R Us and Circuit City. I saw grown women get into

Tycho: Here's the second (and final) strip retelling Gabriel's harrowing past as a retail aggressor. I hope the writing process for this strip makes it into the show at some point, or at any rate that it is revealed, because

Tycho: In the same way that professional skateboarders can approach Tony Hawk Ride and extract something resembling a game, people who are Italian are in a position to discern the dialogue and plot of Assassin's Creed II without resorting to

Tycho: The exact total is $542,107.01 - a jump of just over eighty-six thousand over last week's figure. We'll take it, certainly. But I warn you: my palm is poised over the knob labeled Stirring Rhetoric. I can crank this

Tycho: New Super Mario Brothers Wii is marriage poison. I wouldn't play this game with any person you want to see again. In its multiplayer interpretation, which I suggest be referred to as "Divorce Mode," choreographing your platform jumps in

Gabe: I was very excited about Gyromancer and I decided to grab it on the PC since I saw it right there in Steam when I went to play Torchlight. I remember now why I quit playing games on the

Tycho: I have to say that we found DJ Hero quite interesting, actually. I understand that it didn't sell particularly well, but that's never been an especially valid barometer of aesthetics. It's significant to me that the music you're playing
