OK, do we really need to have next-gen gaming in our cars? Apparently we do as things turn out….

As I have pubically stated before: Since we already regulate most forms of media with regard to minors, doing the same with the video games should not be a big deal.

As I sift through this list of games, I find myself agreeing with the findings for the most part. However when they came to the number one game of 2005, I could not agree more.

I would agree to a certain extent that video games are going to remain a major part of our future. But I think that we need to be careful not to put too much stock into them though…

As long as it is not a ban on the rights of adults to choose what games they would like to buy, I see no issues with such a new law.

I love the idea, but see flaws in a number of areas: The biggest flaw is not clearly understanding what the kids want.

No, this is not meant to be a blast from the past, these games are coming back in full force! Sega Genesis Lives!

If you have ever wanted to create your own video game, this might very well be one method for getting started.

Combined with Game Boy Advance, the world’s most popular [...]

“Where is the charm, the wide appeal, the elegant simplicity of the games of yesteryear?” asks author Chris Kohler. “In the never-ending quest to make games more complex, controllers have been packed full of buttons and screens filled with reams of indecipherable information.” The cool retro games are out there, Kohler assures readers-and his new [...]

You know, these folks are correct. There are just some games out there that simply need to be carried on foreword. You know, thinking sequel here…

While I am no longer a fan of Sony at all, I still am doubtful that their gaming system will be buggy. Think about it, have they really ever had an issue in the past with bugs?

Honestly, I feel that part of the reason the Xbox did not do so hot in Japan may stem from the different gaming interests. I mean, we may be looking for different points of value.

An auction Website just for video games? Sounds silly, but with the used game market continuing to climb, this might actually work out!

Hey, when THQ backs something, people listen….
