We were looking for the G4 party and we ended up in a dark basement packed with panel televisions and grown men staring contently at them. It was a party for the new single person video game "Darksiders: The Wrath of War". In the glow of the games the only women in the room, the servers passed around crab cakes and burgers while said grown men sipped free beers.

It was like a really wholesome opium den - with cartoon violence.
