Diablo 3 should have been a rhythm game!
Inspired by Bennett Ring’s “thought provoking” musings in his recent crap article over at GameSpy, I decided to take a stance of my own regarding how Diablo 3 should best have been genre bent. After playing the latest Diablo 3 demo, GameSpy’s Editor in Chief found himself thinking how much better the game might have [...]
Fun With Mail Spam

More video game regulations to come?
We wanted change? Well it’s coming, and it’s coming fast. Democrat Joe Baca of the House of Representatives has proposed a new piece of federal legislation known as the “Video Game Health Labeling Act of 2009″. Since this piece of legislation is federal, it means if this thing passes we can expect nationally and not [...]
Why do we seek a WoW killer?
Tonight, as I was playing LoTRO, then again while at the movies, I had an epiphany. The reason we seek is time. And that same time is the driving force behind 99% of the migraines that developers get while trying to make us a miracle game. If you think about it, time is the driving [...]
Ass-hattery: Is it localized or industry wide?
Today was another day like most. I was over in an area of Northrend, killing some quest mobs, pretty much doing the usual. So I take down a Lasher, loot it and the instant my character stands back up, some ass-hat runs over, harvests it, and runs off. No asking, no waiting to see if [...]

At least NCSoft is trying to soften the blow with some decent parting gifts for those still subscribed to the doomed game. My recommendation to [...]

Well whaddya know? It’s Monday again and that means it’s time for another installment of The Massive Mess of an Opinion. Congrats to out to Dihard (with a vengeance) for winning last weeks t-shirt giveaway. Rumor has it that he’s running around town with no clothes on and scaring little old ladies so we thought [...]
Better Go to Fandango Now!
With all the horror stories we have of Channel Massive’s past game day LAN parties, our staff probably could have written the script for this movie; but someone beat us to it. LAN Party Massacre is a Comedy/Horror Slasher film that is a direct parody of video game culture, but a classic slasher film at [...]
Screw You Guitar Hero 3…
Long time listeners know that Raining Blood on GH3 has been my nemesis for many months now. Regardless of difficulty level, it’s always been the one song that has made me want to bash my guitar controller against the wall on many occasions. I imagine my reaction would be almost as childish as this kids [...]
Who is Channel Massive…really?
At last the ‘Origin’ issue of the Channel Massive staff is released. Behold, the About Us Page! About Channel Massive In 1939, as part of a highly classified US government project, four not-so-bright GIs were put in cryogenic suspension after being injected with a sort-of-super soldier serum. Due to lack of interest, their sleeping bodies [...]
