    A little background before I begin: Approximately a month ago, a fog of drama briefly descended upon the GIO blog-o-sphere. Some of you may have noticed. It was not the first of it's kind, nor will it likely be the last. This blog is not about the... More

    Hi Everybody! Tactical Rash reporting in from a long term (much longer than anticipated) absence. Some of you may remember me, many of you may not. I see a lot has changed since I last posted. Not surprising, since that was back in November of 2010. Although... More

    Hey all!

    Hey all! It has been a LONG time since I got a blog up. It is about time I finish this one. I have literally started and then had to quit this blog over a dozen times due to screaming baby, nagging mommy, or because Big Bang Theory was on. Right now it... More

    Hey everyone! How are you? You may have noticed my uncharacteristic absence over the last week or so. Or you may not have. Whatever. It doesn't matter if you noticed or not. I have decided to let you all know where I have been these last few days... More

    It's sad, but I am fairly certain it is true.

    It's sad, but I am fairly certain it is true. Let me give you a little context. My K/D ratio in CoD:MW2 hovers around 1/3. I have never beat Halo 3 on legendary. Heck, I rarely crank up the difficulty in most games above normal, because they become... More

    Hi everybody! I am finally back from Ft Pickett. Did you miss me? Let me tell you, I am glad to be back. Let's just say that if there was a competition for "Anus of the Universe", Ft Pickett would be a front runner for the award.

    HAH! Yeah right! Actually, I am leaving GIO for two weeks to go to fabulous Ft Pickett for Annual Training. I will be lacking computer or internets, so I just wanted to say I'll miss you all. Well, as much as I can miss profiles, avatars, and text... More

    Well, it has been awhile since I wrote anything here. Apologies to all of my loyal fans. Since I collaborated on a couple with Saint, I don't feel too bad about it. However, after all of the great comments I got from those blogs, I felt like I should go ahead and give some more comedy a try. These were just a few ideas I had floating around my brain.

    Hi Everybody! I am finally back from my week in Wenatchee National Park, WA. What a long, long trip that was! There is a vacation spot up there in the mountains called, "Holden Village" that, 40 years ago, my in-laws decided would be a nice... More
  • I'm going on vacation!

    I doubt anyone cares (it is MY blog and I'll talk about what I want), so I'll keep this brief. I leave on vacation tomorrow to the great state of Washington. I will be in the middle of nowhere with no cell phone and *shudder* no internet. So, you guys are going to have to survive a week without my inciteful commenting on everything. If you find yourself wondering where that ... "What's his name? Tactical Rush  ...or something?"...went, now you know.

  • The Rise of the Casual Gamer (or Why This is a Double Edged Sword for the Industry) (Part 2: Motion Controls)

    So, it has been a little while since my last blog. Sorry to those of you who were eagerly awaiting my next installment in this series (if people like that even exist :D). Since it was such a long time ago, I actually had to go back and re-read what I wrote in Part 1. It looks like I touched on Facebook games, and how they are affecting the industry. Today, I would like to examine motion controls.
