Game

Forget about the office with the ping-pong desk, it’s time to convert your conference room into the medieval realm of Men recently plagued by rebel orcs — their underground tunnel system known only by Dungeon Master Gerald McFeerney from IT, an expert at both sword wielding and Javascript.

LIAS reports from the innards of gamers' paradise

Twinkling lights, blips and beeps, flickering screens, solicitous sideshow carnies delivering seemingly well-rehearsed spiels — substitute prostitutes for booth babes, cocaine and booze for caffeine — E3 is the Las Vegas of nerdom. Lost In A Supermarket will once again go undercover to bypass the guards and bring you the anthropological wonders which lie beneath the […]
