This is my last Lunchtime Video for MTV. And... special bonus: it contains an Easter Egg.

After four years obtaining ridiculous video game swag at MTV, this is what I'm keeping

I'm not just being a company man today. But I do want to say something on "Lego Rock Band"'s behalf. And I want to begin my throwing out of swag, live to tape on Lunchtime Video.

What do you think gets discussed in today's Lunchtime Video? It's not what you might think.

"World of Goo" + "Bit.Trip Beat" + "Cubello" + "Orbital" + "Bonsai Barber"... WiiWare is finally adding up to a satisfying amount of good games for me, as I argue in today's video.

Sony may no longer command the attention of the majority of "Resident Evil" fans or "Grand Theft Auto" fans in America, but it appears to have a big advantage with baseball fans. (Check out the NPDs for proof.) Why is that?

Today's Lunchtime Video is about the company a lot of gamers love to hate these days, "Call of Duty" and "Guitar Hero" publisher Activision. I think it's too soon for gamers to brand them an Evil Empire, as some have. Why? Check out the video below for more details

In today's Lunchtime Video, I explain where I was yesterday afternoon -- and why you should expect gaming reporters to keep vanishing this spring.

The follwing Lunchtime Video is wrong. Read the post below to find out why I'm exposing my ignorance to the world.

The Lunchtime Video you see above is wrong. Dead wrong. I recorded it about two hours ago, but was slow to post it because I was waiting to hear back from Nintnendo about the questions I was going to raise in that video. My questions involved the newly revealed June 8 release date for Wii MotionPlus. As you'll see in this video, I tie myself in knots trying to figure out why Nintendo would release the peripheral a week before any MotionPlus-compatible games are out. And then, seconds before I was going to post this, a Nintendo rep e-mailed me to point out that Sega's "Virtua Tennis," shipping May 19 will support the MotionPlus. So watch this video if you must, and laugh at how ignorant I was just a couple of hours ago.
