We like quirky, and so should you. It’s fun and often ends up giving us some insight into the human condition while also being entertaining. That’s a good thing.

And speaking of quirky (see what we did there?) IFC has a new show premiering tomorrow night (Friday) called Out There and we gotta say, it looks pretty interesting — and yes, quirky.

We’ve got a little preview for the series after the jump, so be sure and check that out. Also, in case you were wondering, here’s some info about the show itself:

The ten episode series chronicles the socially awkward Chad Stevens and his best friend, Chris Novak. Living in the small town of Holford in the middle of nowhere, the boys wander the surreal, bleak landscape waiting out their last few years of high school and discovering that growing up is weird to do.

As we told you earlier, Microsoft kicked off their E3 festivities with what could be considered a fairly standard and unsurprising Press Conference. As expected, they announced the anticipated console exclusive, Halo 4. Upping the ante from last year, this E3 brought gameplay footage of Halo 4 to the audience with a first look at the new enemies and weapons as well as some familiar faces from past Halos. Microsoft would follow with footage of the new Splinter Cell: Black List which uses enhanced Kinect controls.

Following on the Kinect bandwagon, EA debuted footage of the latest Fifa and Madden franchises. In Fifa, players will be able to make coaching decisions and their reactions will be read by the Kinect and penalties may even be awarded based on poor sportsmanship. In Madden, NFL Hall of Fame Quarterback Joe Montana demonstrated the game’s new Kinect enabled play calling features.

After the Fable: The Journey trailer, Microsoft Studios brought out studio head Phil Spencer who introduced the trailer for the new Gears of War: Judgment, staring Baird, and then the latest racing experience with Forza Horizon.

South Park is one of those shows that just doesn’t seem to get old. After years and years of popular TV, a theatrical movie and countless other tie-ins, Trey Parker and Matt Stone have been able to keep the franchise fresh. A lot of that is due to the timely and topical nature of the series, which in and of itself is born from the show’s simplicity.

That simplicity can be deceptive, so when Obsidian claimed they were making an epic RPG based on South Park that would feel like you were playing an actual episode there was skepticism. Sure the screen caps looked stellar, but those are easy to produce, we needed to see something more.

At the 2012 E3 Microsoft Conference we finally got our first glimpse at the game in action, and it looks like mission accomplished for Obsidian. The animation looks smooth, the designs are awesome and most importantly the humor is there. One big reason for that last part is the game itself is being written by Trek Parker and Matt Stone, making this truly as much on an interactive episode as you could possibly get.

The game will be released on the PS3 and 360 in early 2013, but for now take a look at the full E3 trailer after the jump.

It’s that time of year. No, we don’t mean Girl Scout Cookie time. It’s time for an all new batch of episodes from our favorite degenerate animators Matt Stone and Trey Parker (along with their hard-working crew). Comedy Central returns with its flagship animated sitcom, South Park this Wednesday at 10PM.

This week, the envelope is once again pushed with an episode titled “Reverse Cowgirl.” Here’s an official synopsis.

One of the boys had been told time and time again about leaving the toilet seat up after he goes to the bathroom, but he didn’t listen. His actions have consequences and ultimately result in an unimaginable catastrophe.

As if that isn’t enough for you, be sure to take a look at an exclusive clip after the jump. Catch “Reverse Cowgirl” on Comedy Central this Wednesday night at 10PM.

The Bitcast returns this week with their record setting 8th Episode featuring the Flickcast’s own version of Mario & Luigi, though JC and WallE will both always lay claim to being the star of the episode.

In the News of the Week, JC and WallE discuss the upcoming Spike Video Game Awards show and speculate on the upcoming announcement from Epic Games, the makers of Gears of War and the Infinity Blade franchises. They also discuss the 10th Anniversary of Grand Theft Auto III coming to iOS before getting into detail with South Park: The Game coming from Obsidian. They even talk Beta numbers for Star Wars: The Old Republic and announce the current and upcoming DLC for Goldeneye 007: Reloaded, sadly with the absence of Sean Bean.

In the Long Grind in Skyrim this week, JC gets in detail on both the dragons and music of the Elder Scrolls V.

For the Topic of the Week, WallE shows that he can handle both movies and gaming as he discusses the scores composed for some of the most influential titles in gaming history.
