Going quackers

No, I can't say I had this one in the pool, no sir.

Yes, chef!

Get yourself reacquainted with old friend of Shacknews and former Weekend Confirmed regular Nikole Zivalich, who's doing fun gamer stuff over at PBS.

Rated RRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Speaking of PBS, the latest episode of Otherwords looks at the nautical nature of the English language.

Bored-erlands

For this week's Pitch Meeting, this sure is a movie that happened.

Ozzie Mejia

Senior Editor

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
