Introducing Girl On Game: Justine Joli Signs Up As Our Guest Reviewer

June 12, 2008


Justine Joli has all the necessary credentials for a video game reviewer. She has a brain, thumbs and extra time on her hands. The fact that she has a side gig as a burlesque dancer / pornstar / Penthouse Pet just kind of adds to the spice of it all. Justine first showed up in the Complex Network as a floor correspondent for New York Comic Con. After seeing the kind of grip Joli has pop culture, and the hypnotic power she seems to have over comic geeks, we figured she could handle some light review duties. Now she’s going to handle the occasional handheld game review in her new column, Girl on Game. Check the video above from her photo shoot. (We need to show something other than game screens when she’s doing a review, no?) In our short Q&A she manages to turn the tables on her interviewer, our very own Richard “Treats” Dryden. Stay tuned for her first Girl on Game column and her review of God of War: Chains of Olympus, debuting tomorrow.

Chris Long To EA: “I Don’t Have A Gut.”

May 08, 2008


We sat down with former Virginia defensive end, Chris Long, a few days before the NFL Draft at EA’s event in NYC. He didn’t notch any of the covers of NCAA 09 and he had a few minor issues with his virtual representation on the field. Specifically he seemed a little confused over his in-game gut. Getting picked second in the draft by the St. Louis Rams should help deal with any indignity suffered at the hands of EA.

Jake Long, The Dolphins’ $30 Million Dollar Man

May 07, 2008


We interviewed Jake Long at EA’s Draft Weekend event, just days before the Dolphins (officially) made the former Michigan offensive lineman the number one pick in the draft and the wealthiest kid to come out of Lapeer East High School. We talked with Long about video games, appearing in NCAA 09 and what he’s going to buy with his $57.75 million dollar contract…ah, fuck it. Writing down that kind of figure makes writing anything else seem insignificant.
