Please, for the Love of God: Stop Believin’

November 6th, 2008 by John

I don’t even know what to make of humanity anymore. I give up. I’m done. As the rest of our country (or at least 53% of it) celebrates the dawn of a new era and “hope” and “change” are the buzzwords of the day, I am grounded with the realization that we are fucking doomed. Only one thing could bring me down this far. Only one thing is that evil…

Journey.

It has just been announced that Don’t Stop Believin’, that sappy, 80s polyester anthem from the worst band of all time, has become the first catalog track ever to sell more than two million downloads. Furthermore, according to SoundScan, Don’t Stop Believin’ is the highest selling catalog track in iTunes history and the sole Journey catalog track to go double-platinum.

What in the hell is wrong with you people?

Journey Influencing Megaman?

September 29th, 2008 by PhilthBot69

That’s right folks, I bring some slightly disturbing news that will I’m afraid blow your minds. Consider yourselves forewarned: once seeing this you cannot unsee it, understand? Right, well it’s been brought to my attention that the much-discussed and much-maligned (by the Drunken Gamers) band Journey may have in fact influenced one of my favourite gaming themes of all time.

We’re talking Elecman from Megaman 1. I bring to you the disturbing evidence courtesy of some cruel folk on Youtube.com

It’s uncanny and wrong. Screw this I’m going back to enjoy Megaman 9.
