Blocking, BnB’s and More.
You’ve got your game and you’ve got your character, so the next step is potentially one of the most difficult – learning the basics. At this point, assuming you’ve fiddled around with the game, and at least have a handle on the game’s systems, there is still a lot to learn in terms of playing the game properly. Learning the basics at times makes people feel like they don’t know how to play the game at all. It can be frustrating, but the payoff is well worth it, because not only will it you progress in your game of choice, but it will improve your success rate with many other fighting games.
Find out what we'll be talking about on the next Backloggers Anonymous.

Grinded Gears
It’s safe to say that the Gears of War franchise has safely secured its place in people’s minds as one of this generation’s most important franchises. Since the beginning, they’ve been innovating and refining the 3rd person shooter genre, introducing things like the modern cover mechanic, and the extremely popular horde mode. 2011’s Gears of War 3 was the ending to the trilogy, and I felt like it ended the series properly. I finished the game satisfied with the story as well as the multiplayer, and I didn’t feel the need for another game. It’s not that I didn’t want the series to continue, but I expected a decent wait before the next iteration. It was hard for me to get excited for Gears of War: Judgment, a prequel starring the wise-cracking Baird. What could be done to improve upon Gears of War 3 less than two years later? Unfortunately, aside from a few changes in the overall formula, it’s apparent right away that developers People Can Fly couldn’t even answer that question.
Nintendo’s 3DS will be the focus

It's time again for Nerds Without Pants! This week, JD joins us for a very special look at growing up in the '90s, and all the great games we experienced back then. So lace up your army boots, tie a flannel around your waist, and chug some Crystal Pepsi folks, because this episode of NWP is full of attitude and is so effing XTREME!
Comments: exposed!
At some point, somebody (or a group of people) asked me if we had a page out there that displayed all of the comments they left across the site. Of course, that feature did not exist at the time, so I added it to the list of components to create. Yesterday, I stealthily updated the site to include said functionality.
The Eidos Montreal announcement trailer for a new game in the Thief series.
Relax, April Fools is over. You can get excited now.
Considering yesterday was April 1st, it’s no wonder that some announcements that may seem too good to be true were held off until today. Case in point, this morning Atlus announced that after 10 years, Shin Megami Tensei will be returning to the states with the fourth mainline title in the series this summer, exclusively for the 3DS.
