A BitTorrent link for The Matrix Revolutions trailer. If you need the BitTorrent client, by all means, grab it.

I wanted to thank Mythic for advertising their Trials of Atlantis expansion with us. What I saw at E3 looked great, and I praised them since then for upgrading their game engine with each expansion. Trials of Atlantis lets you, among other things, ride friendly sea creatures - and we that sort of activity wholeheartedly.

There's a bunch of great stuff coming out of the Tokyo Game Show, a summary of which is easy to grab at Gamespot. Of personal interest to me is this Monster Hunter Trailer, which looks like an invigorating online Action RPG, a welcome Mega Man RPG, that Phantasy Star Online Card Game for whatever reason, and, obviously, a little Ghost never hurt nobody.At the same show, Nintendo announced a wireless adapter for their GBA. I was excited about it, until I realized games needed to support it specifically. As it stands, I'll care about something like this when it's built in to the GameBoy that comes out next year, you know? The one developers apart from Nintendo will actually give a fuck about.

Okay, maybe I do care a little, just not enough to discuss it with Gabe all Goddamn afternoon. As a golf game, Tiger Woods 2004 is very near perfect - as the sequel to Tiger Woods 2003, they were starting from a pretty good point. For new features, we've got Game Face (the facility we describe in the strip) which allows you to create an eerily accurate representation of yourself. Then you can delete that representation and use Tiger Woods or the variant Super Duper Sunday Tiger, which is like an unstoppable golf cyborg. There's also a vastly expanded Pro Shop, where you can procure "Lucky" garb for your character, some of it in sales that change daily. Look out for "Real Time Events," such as eclipses or birthdays, that will offer unique challenges. This is all quite apart from the huge number of courses, which include holes you must maneuver the ball into. As a golf game, it's pretty hard to beat. The only chink in its armor is the online play, and if - as a satisfied fan of the 2003 version - you purchased the game explicitly for its online additions, obviously that's going to stick out.

Some real info on Bioware's new RPG franchise, Jade Empires.

Dynasty Tactics 2 should be on that list, if my PS2 hadn't decided that it had read quite enough discs, thank you very much. This sucks for many reasons, not least of all that I hadn't finished Silent Hill 3 yet.

I really must maintain that I have no inherent lust for Doom 3. I have to buy it, of course - out of a misguided sense of tradition, which they are no doubt banking on. I'm being serious, though. Read this love letter to id on it over at GameSpot and tell me if it sounds like any original ideas made it in. I submit that they have not.

I think Savage is awesome. I have no clue why you would ever play as the humans though. In all the games I’ve played I’ve never seen the humans win a round. They also can’t call down bolts of lightning to destroy their enemies. If I had any complaint about the game I’d say it needs a third race something fierce. Other than that I have no problems at all with it and I’ve been playing it pretty much every night.

You'll find that the average day is honeycombed with perfectly good moments to invest in Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. At least, that's what we found, and we weren't even looking very hard. Also, you'll note that I mentioned Desert Combat in the strip - let me establish that the version I'm playing is .4, the most recent one, and let me further establish that as of this release I think that this mod has EA on the run. Secret Weapons is real fun, and I don't regret purchasing it - but with a growing stable of fine maps and exquisite vehicles, Desert Combat is quickly becoming the definitive Battlefield 1942 experience.

We’ve been working on a new project for a few weeks now and I can finally announce it here. Ubisoft has asked us to create a special four page comic to go along with the new Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon game they are releasing next month. The opportunity to tell a story in that world, with those characters is a real honor. Our comic stars Li Mu Bai and his famous blade Green Destiny. We’ve had a lot of fun working on this project and I’m super excited for you guys to see it. I’ll be sure and let you know when it becomes available online. Be sure and hit the Crouching Tiger website if you haven’t already.

If you live in Seattle and like to watch plays, Brenna is in one coming up for the Fringe Festival - I've read the script, and it's pretty Goddamn funny. It has dates running for about a week starting this Saturday, and I guess she does some kind of sensual dancing or something in it. Please cover your eyes during that part. The rest of it, however, you may watch and enjoy.

Gamespy has their latest adorable attempt at relevance up, a list of the 25 most overrated games of all time. You can go look at it if you want, I'm certainly not putting a link to it here - suffice it to say, where it is obvious it is obvious, and where they attempt to be brash and iconoclastic it's just insulting. We've done a comic on it, I'll take it frame by frame it.

Some interesting news regarding everyone's favorite imaginary videogame console.

Now that's something to celebrate. Also, can I just say how impressed I am with 3D Gamers' adoption of Bit Torrent? It is the perfect solution to distributing larger, high-demand files - and game demos are virtually a textbook case. If you haven't already tried it out, grab the client and try to download some file you've been meaning to get. If community sites started working together to offer and promote Bit Torrent for downloads, no-one would ever want for files - even on the first day. In fact, especially on the first day.

I am working today on a new comic book project and I am having some issues with my Wacom tablet. I was hoping I could tell you guys what was going on and maybe get some advice. The mouse pointer shakes whenever I am using the pen on my tablet. No matter how still I hold my hand the pointer shakes like mad. It started doing this a few days ago but today it’s super bad. The tablet itself is about four years old. I have the latest drivers and all that jazz. Anyone have any ideas?
