  • It was a bittersweet Tweet, not unexpected — to say the least. It went something like this: BM verabschiedet sich – zumindest vorerst! BM says “Goodbye”! I quickly clicked over to the BlackMonkeys.de site and looked for the inevitable end-times post. The impenetrable German prose tripped me up. I’d forgotten…I don’t speak German, so I Skyped Xiao and asked him...

  • In my opinion, The Galactic Warfare Mod by the BlackMonkeys.de was one of the best CoD4 mods the CoD community ever created. Given that it is Thanksgiving, we here at BASHandSlash.com cannot think of a better way to thank the guys and gals at the BlackMonkeys who brought us this mod than to give them the recognition they deserve. Therefore,...

  • So, yet another Call of Duty game has been released and for the first time in more than five years, I did not take part in the event. I didn’t leave work early. I didn’t go to my local video store and fork over my hard earned cash. I didn’t download a day-one patch. I didn’t stare at my monitor...

  • Thought I’d share another poignant email with you all. This one is from BASHandSlash.com reader, y0da Hey Jock, I remember the first podcast I ever heard was the one where Robert Bowling broke the news on IWnet.

  • On the 8th of November, Activision’s Modern Warfare 3 releases. Normally, this would be a date I would highlight in my calendar with a thick Sharpie, but not this time around. The release of any Call of Duty title has always been treated as a high-holy-day by all PC CoD fanatics like me. Running to the video game store to...

  • Today,  I was going to uninstall CoD4. Like many of you, I used to play CoD4 so much I knew the inside of the A-Bomb site on mp_crash better than I did my own house. I lived CoD4, ate CoD4,  shat CoD4, but didn’t sleep CoD4 — cuz I was up playing it. As in life, there comes an end...

  • The year is 2006. George W. Bush is in the White House. The U.S. is at war on two fronts. Shakira and Justin Timberlake are popular singing sensations. Bob Barker announces his retirement (he’s still alive?) and a young Canadian starts a CoD2-oriented webcast for his clan-mates the Devil-Dogz. Yes, BASH had humble roots. To show you those roots, I’ve...
