Herd of Cats

Is there a peeping tom achievement?

Hey! She's wearing blue underwear!

Yes, that is Coxxorz sneaking up behind Moxxie while I distracted her. That's called teamwork.

This occured during Graybush, Coxxorz and my gaming night with the Secret Armory of General Knoxx's DLC.

So I find myself in the position of disallowing votes.

If you remember this:

• anyone who cares to can post their choice with 2 honourable mentions in the comments sections

and more importantly this:

• Entries without the full three options will be discarded otherwise the points will be skewed

2009 Pintsie Original Content of the Year Award

Totally unlike Herd of Cats to cover an actual Gaming Event but Swag went and did just that.

For that originality and drive we at Herd of Cats (including Swag who voted for himself) are proud to award him with the 2009 Pintsie Award for Original Content of the year.

What? A PS3 game on Herd of Cats? Well why not?

So my personal game reviewer (I keep him in the closet at the back of my office) was quite miffed that I took Monday off. He had to wait a additional 24 hours before he could tell me of the awesomeness that was Heavy Rain. "This is the Game that the Playstation 3 needed all along."

"This game will make people buy the PS3."

The Secret Armory of General Knoxx just became available!

Download it here for 800 MS points.

What did Swag think about our Game of the Year? Read his quote:

I had forgotten about this one. I think I might be getting it now that you mention it, especially if you guys are actually going to play it for more than a month.
I like the new cell-shaded art style.

That's tomorrow!!!

Gearboxity just announced that minor piece of scheduling. Make sure you have 800 MS points available!

Level Cap increased to 61 and a 4 player vehicle! See you online tomorrow... and the day after that... and the day after that... and the day after that... and the day after that...

The Secret Armory of General Knoxx will be available Feb 23rd for the Xbox 360 (800 Microsoft Points) and the 25th for the PS3 and PC (for $9.99)! We can't wait for Borderlands fans to enjoy the biggest Borderlands DLC to date. You and your friends will have a blast exploring the new areas in all-new vehicles (including a 4-player vehicle), fighting new enemies and bosses, and finding new weapons all while building your character to level 61! That's a lot of new! Grab your friends and your best guns - you're going to need them!

Not sure why the Xbox gets it two days early but who cares! That means us!

It's official Tuesday March 30th 8pm I return to the stage.

If I had the power to BAN people I'd have nobody left to play with.

Update: Link to Microsoft response/denial. (Although having played on Live I am pretty much siding with any moderator no matter what)

Note: no idea if this is completely legit or not.

So, this was going to be about Lost Planet 2 except…

So over the past few months I have been reading previews and write ups on Lost Planet 2. Most of these previews had the HoC Magic words: 4 player coop. I use the term coop loosely. But that's the type of game we like to play. See Borderlands.

It's been a while since I've thought about posting one of these skits, they are harder to find these days however. And there are so many good ones I just don't know where to start. Pure win.

Remember when I found this good news

Well I just got this email:

This is worrying

Beer contains female hormones
Last month, Wits University and RAU scientists released the results of a
Recent analysis that revealed the presence of female hormones in beer.
Men should take a concerned look at their beer consumption..
The theory is that beer contains female hormones (hops contain
Phytoestrogens) and that by drinking enough beer, men turn into women . Read more

What's this? Two classic clips in two days? There is just too much comedy gold around these days. Ergo, concordantly, vis-a-vis...

Coxxorz's Mother lover post reminded me of this one, as it also features Justin Timberlake.
