The Wii phenomenon is still picking up steam around the globe, so much so that Wii-related phrases, terms, and yes, even physical ailments are becoming part of our vernacular.
Witness two new additions to the Urban Dictionary:
Nintendonitis. n. A chronic painful condition that effects the muscles or joints in the hand, fingers and/or forearm after […]
The first season of the Championship Gaming Series is wrapping up with the playoff final coming down to the Chicago Chimera vs. the Carolina Core.
In semi-final action, the Chimera pulled off a tremendous comeback, recovering from a series of losses and sticking it to the nearly invincible Counter-Strike team of the New York 3D, and […]
Nothing like a kick in the teeth to get an entire continent snarling with discontent. Microsoft has skill in that area, judging by the recent announcement that it’s showcase European even, X0, would be cancelled for 2007.
Citing a desire to promote big ticket games like Halo 3, Forza Motorsport 2, and Bioshock: mass Effect […]
Now you can take your favourite Heroes anywhere! Gameloft & NBC/ Universal have teamed up to create a mobile gaming version of Claire Bennet, Hiro Nakamura, and the rest of the Heroescrew.

If there’s one thing that gaming companies excel at in the business sphere of the industry, it’s shady dealings and shoddy paperwork. Looks like two more major players have fallen on the wrong side of various authorities.
Just like Activision, Atari has shown that it can’t (or won’t) keep proper books to satisfy NASDAQ, and […]
See it’s this kind of thing that pisses me off about the gaming industry hype machine. Alan Wake was/is/might-be-if-it’s-ever-released a wicked psychological thriller of a game that sees you explore an expansive, openly explorable world as the game’s horror writer protagonist. It’s supposed to be supremely graphically complex, visceral, and downright chilling. […]
It’s about that time again! Guild Wars: Nightfall has been out long enough that NCSoft and ArenaNet folks are feeling the pressure to release a new iteration of the successful, on-going franchise.
This time gamers will be taken to the unexplored northern reaches of Tyria to encounter a whole host of new areas, skills, armor, […]
