Apple Trademark Revision Suggests iGame

I love my new shiny aluminum iMac with a fervour that just might creep out the majority of people but one thing that I haven’t been doing a lot of on it, is gaming. It’s kind of like having a new toy that’s missing a screw and so doesn’t quite do all that you’d like […]

Rumor Mill: Xbox 360 Blu-Ray Player Coming by May?

Take this piece of news with a grain of salt, but it all seems inevitable anyway, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it were true. According to an Australian technology magazine, “insiders at Microsoft” revealed that the company has already configured standalone Blu-ray player that is compatible with the Xbox 360.
The player could hit stores […]

Mastiff Inhales Rights To Major League Eating

I saw it on TV the other day. A thing so repulsive, so disgusting, so stupid that I could only be left, head in hand, muttering “why…whhhhyyy?”
A Michael Jackson Valentine’s Day special? No. Joan Rivers after another plastic surgery? No. Major League Eating. Yes it does exist and yes, it’s exactly what you think it […]

Paparazzi Snapshot Goes Mobile

This is so far beyond sad and frightening that I really don’t know what to say…
Celebrity gossip, and the lust for it, is at an all time high at the moment. Everything from celebs doing their groceries to poor Britney once again flashing her hoo-haa is fair game and any methods possible are often employed […]

New Poll: The Future of PC Gaming — Brilliant or Bleak?

Okay, here’s your chance. I just spent several paragraphs babbling about the state of PC gaming and suggesting various reasons as to why it might, or might not, be on its last legs. What’s your take on the whole situation?
How do you see the future of PC Gaming?

PC Gaming: Still Dying?

Based on recent statistics that show PC platform games accounting for only 14% of the total game sales in 2007, the alarmists are back at the oft-heard panic button, ringing in the doom of PC gaming in the face of the uber-advanced technology now present in consoles. It used to be that PC processors slaughtered […]

Brain Age Doc Kawashima Ain’t Getting Rich Quick

By choice.
Personally, I think the Doc needs a check-up. Here’s Nintendo, raking in millions of dollars of profit thanks, in part, to the fuel that the Brain Age craze injected into Nintendo DS sales. The little handheld that could is the top selling system by a long shot and yet Dr. Kawashima, the happy, […]

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith

The first band specific title for the phenomenon that is Guitar Hero has been announced, and the band is … Aerosmith. And there is a chorus of boos and cheers from the audience. Personally, I love Aerosmith, but releasing a band-specific anything is kind of risky. I suppose that if you’re absolutely set on going […]

Alone in the Dark Tech Demo

A recently released tech demo for Alone in the Dark shows off its “Real World Rules” engine, a name that just begs to be made fun of. All kidding aside though, this game looks pretty kick-ass. But don’t take my word for it, check out the demo.

 
I’ve been waiting for a game to fully showcase […]
