What’s Significantly More Super than the Super Bowl?

By January 30, 2009 Video Games 0 Comment


The return of Blood Bowl to videogame consoles, or, as it might better me called, the spiritual successor to Mutant League Football. Basically, it’s based on Warhammer’s old-tabletop game about monsters playing football and/or killing each other, and it is totally, totally awesome. I’d like to tell you about the modes and the fact you can play the game turn-based (!), but I’m too busy throwing the devil horns because of the field where lines are on fire and the players wielding the chainsaws.

Sometimes, life can be good. Thank you, Blood Bowl, for reminding me of that.

He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
