The thing I like about Letterpress is how it makes a field of letters turn into a vicious battleground, with two players vying to control more territory than the other via clever word-forming. Sounds a lot like something important that happened this week, no? » 11/08/12 3:30pm 11/08/12 3:30pm

If you're like me, you play a lot of video games and just might have a game or two baked into your memory of major historical events. I will always associate election night in 2008, for example, not just with Barack Obama's historic election as America's first black president but as the night I had to choose how to… » 11/06/12 6:15pm 11/06/12 6:15pm

It seems lately that not a day goes by without another mobile game with ties to the upcoming presidential election arrives in my inbox. They paste the Republican and Democratic candidates into trite video game situations, offer to donate a portion of sales to the appropriate campaign fund.

Hot on the heels of Chair's Vote!!! comes another game that involves the Democratic and Republican presidential candidates laying the smack down, only in Vellum Interactive's Political Arena your in-game purchases directly benefit the candidate you choose to play. » 9/25/12 4:55pm 9/25/12 4:55pm

What if Obama and Romney were video game characters, and the national conventions were where they did battle? And what if it wasn't just any video game, but a super catchy music game, where the candidates crooned and harmonized as they amassed a high score of hope-mentions and implications of faith?

If you only want to hear the video game part, skip to the 1:00 minute mark of this video of things Republican Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney didn't really say. » 10/20/11 7:20pm 10/20/11 7:20pm
