Consoles, Not PCs Doomed?

Another take on the platform wars predicts that consoles will go the way of the dinosaur, a somewhat surprising statement given that it was spoken by Sandy Duncan, the former Vice President of Microsoft’s European “Home and Entertainment” division.

DJ Oakenfold To Score Bourne Conspiracy

Not too long ago, I popped up a quick video of the trailer for the upcoming Bourne Conspiracy game. I wasn’t too fond of the graphic quality but it looks like the developers are beefing up the credibility by signing on some big league names in other areas.
