Colbert V Rain: DDR

Colbert is many things, but a graciously loser isn't one of them. After going off on Miyamoto for swiping the top spot in Time's 100 most influential people list (and calling Donkey Kong a game about hate crime), he settles on the person he's rally mad at. No, not himself: RAIN!!!

Hit up the jump to catch Colbert breaking it down, as the kids say, in a head-to-head dance-off with adorable Korean pop singer on Dance Dance Revolution.

Colbert Crew Shoots Down WoW Immortality

Funnyman, warrior-poet and host of The Colbert Report Stephen Colbert was this close to being immortalized in collectible trading card by artist Todd Lockwood. Unfortunately, it would appear that Colbert will have to settle for a television show and best-selling book, as the World of Warcraft card from Upper Deck featuring "Stefen Colbear" doesn't look like it will see commercial release, in spite of its brilliance.

South Park Teases Guitar Hero

Many of you have probably already watched South Park's Guitar Hero episode that aired last night, but we enjoyed this very telling clip that compares playing real guitar to playing the hyperbolic air guitar that we know better as the GH controller. Because we understand where those kids are coming from. Back in our band days, we'd have loved some positive reinforcement for nailing our trombone solo. Alas, the real world is not garnished with the crack that is a high score.

Hit the jump for an entry from South Park's production blog about the experience of making the episode.

Don't forget to tune into Comedy Central tonight if you want to catch the Guitar Queer-o episode of South Park, featuring a Guitar Hero obsessed Stan and Kyle. Worth tuning into just for a few seconds worth of Boston pumping through your media center. A very brief preview is available online.

Daily Show, Colbert Report Bring Fake News To Xbox Live Video Marketplace

WIth all good news must come some bad. I'll start with the former. The folks at Xbox 360-land have announced that they've partnered with Comedy Central to bring The Daily Show's semi-fake news reporting and The Colbert Report's brand of truthiness to the Xbox Live Video Marketplace. Episodes will show up some six hours after their original airing. Everything's still pretty good so far... More »

Comedy Central Launches Reno 911 Paintball

Comedy Central has been in the habit lately of creating online games for some of their shows. The newest member of this quickly growing clan of games is Reno 911 Paintball. Done in a mock FPS style, Reno 911 Paintball pits you against the Reno 911 deputies in a paintball battle/flag capture game. This free webgame will not work on Macs and PC users will need to have the latest version of Shockwave installed for the game to work properly. More »

Gallery: Buy The Wii-mobile

This is an exception. We usually don't like to post eBay stuff, because someone makes money, and it's not us. A customized Wii 2006 Toyota Scion XB is up on the auction block. Originally, this one-of-kind was created by Comedy Central and Nintendo as a grand prize for last year's "Thanksgiving Wiikend" contest. More »

Clips: Wright on Colbert Report

Will Wright was on the Colbert Report last night and, for at least half of the interview, behaved much like I would have in the same situation: Scared stiff. More »

Will Wright To Appear On Colbert Report

That Stephen Colbert must really like video games. And not in a "carefully developed joke character idolizing our current administration" sort of way, but with real genuine appreciation. We already know he loves the Wii! More »

Comedy Central's Thanksgiving Wiikend Codes

Someone actually created a insta-blog just to post the codes needed to enter for your chance at winning a Wii from Comedy Central. Unfortunately, the site has gone blank in the past day or so. Fortunately, I had already written down all of the codes. Unfortunately... Oh, I ran out of those, so hit the jump for what I believe to be the codes. More »

Win A Wii This Thanxgiveaway Wiikend

You might think that a "Thanxgiveaway" contest would net you a 360, but you'd be wrong. It's the "Wiikend" part you should pay attention to. That painfully hip "x" is for the Scion xB, the so-called grand prize. That boxy little Toyota targeted at "Generation Y" comes "customized with a Wii, a TomTom ONE GPS car navigation system, and much more." You also get a bonus Wii and Excite Truck. If you win, that is. More »

Jon Stewart Takes on Congress' Player Haters

Jon Stewart took on congress, again, last night and their idiotic attack on video games. His mocktitude is quite grandiouse. My favorite HOLY SHIT moment was when Congressman Joe Pitts says that only urban poor kids are in jeopardy of being turned to a life of crime by games because, well they're a bunch of criminals.
