Pink PS2 Headed Down Under

Oh barf. I didn’t even know this was available at all, nevermind the fact that it seems to be spreading its nefarious presence around the globe…
Terrorism? Drug cartels? No…the pink PS2. Apparently this abomination is already available in the Europe, and will be joining the ranks of Australian PS2 counterparts on […]

I was momentarily excited by the news that there was going to be a new Medal of Honor collection released by EA on March 6th. Anyone who knows me knows that this was the game that truly launched my online fragging obsession. I still play the original with fervent joy, and am sadly […]

PS2 Still Going Strong in 2006

Also from the NPD Group was a tally of the top performing console games and accessories of 2006 by sales totals. Five of the top ten games were for…the PS2, a system that seems to be towing the line between defunctness and affordable alternative; three belonged to the Xbox 360; and two, Brain Age […]

Yakuza Prequel At Official Site

I’ve had my eye on Yakuza, an upcoming release from SEGA this September, when I spent some time at their E3 booth. Whether it was excessive exposure to Kill Bill, or a personal interest in Japanese culture in general, I earmarked this game as one to look out for, and pick up providing it […]
