...Blitz 2002” is a video game ostensibly about football for the GameCube.  Having such outdated graphics, each player looks as if he were finger-painted with a steroid-inflated fist, and the style of play is somewhere between a WWE match and a street brawl.  It is the ultimate icon of man, and ever since I bought it last term, we spend hours each week playing it, sitting together amidst the pastiche of filth and tactfully un-disposed beer cans that is our common room, more satisfied with our masculinity than a preening...
