The sun is out and it’s hot. Your pasty white skin and mole eyes can’t stand the rays without SPF 55 and polarized Ray-Bans. Why even risk going outside? I think your dermatologist would agree.
I suggest you do some gaming. What’s that, you say? You don’t have $50 to spend on Shrek the [...]

The Playstation 3 has had a bumpy ride thus far. Over the past few months I’ve opined about various wrong turns and I even offered Sony a piece of my mind, for free (I’m still waiting for that 32″ Bravia as a thank you…geez), called How to save the PS3.
Today, however, I figured I’d [...]

Sony today announced that it will stop making the 20GB PS3 effective immediately. There are still some units left in stores and they’ll be sold at the current price of $500 until they run out.
Sony cites lack of demand for the lesser PS3 for this decision. The real question is, why [...]

According to the official Grand Theft Auto 4 countdown clock, we now have 6 hours, 23 minutes, and 50 seconds until the newest installment of the GTA series is revealed. I’m so excited. What could it be? Where could it be?
I’m hoping for a very London GTA, although I doubt I’ll get [...]

The Xbox 360 Elite (previously known as the Xbox 360 black) is official. The new configurartion, on sale on April 29 for $479, includes a 120 GB hard drive, HDMI output, an HD cable, a black controller, a black headset, and of course, that sexy black paint job. Too bad it [...]

GamePolitics is today reporting that Democratic Presidential hopeful John Edwards had his Second Life campaign headquarters trashed overnight by some Republican Second Lifers. From the John Edwards blog:
Shortly before midnight (CST) on Monday, February 26, a group of Republican Second Life users, some sporting “Bush ‘08″ tags, vandalized the John Edwards Second Life HQ. They [...]

There are few disasters in the gaming world as severe as the N-Gage. The much maligned handheld gaming system/phone/music player/blender/lawn mower was launched in Oct. of 2003, and after terrible sales, was replaced by the N-Gage QD, which also had terrible sales, and was quietly discontinued sometime in 2005.
I sort of made it a sport [...]

I’m angry. Allison just showed me the trailer for ‘Moral Kombat’, a documentary about the video game industry, specifically how violent video games are impacting our society. Simply watching the trailer has my blood boiling.
It consists of a stream of all-stars and choice quotes from the likes of Jack Thompson and Joe Lieberman, people who [...]

There are two sports games that I hold dear to my heart: NHL ‘94 and Tecmo Super Bowl. Seeing as it is Super Bowl weekend, I thought it apt that I should reminisce about the latter, a classic and groundbreaking football game.
You see, it was a simpler time. A time when graphics didn’t matter and [...]

I am as pleased as a Snow Pirate after terraforming to announce that the LB ‘Lost Planet’ Walkthrough and Strategy Guide is complete!
It contains a detailed walkthrough of every mission, strategies for every boss, the locations of all “Normal” Target Marks (all that you need to earn the Target Mark Achievements), and a section explaining [...]
