I remember the release of Windows 95 like it was yesterday. I worked at a local computer retail store and was responsible for all the displays for the product. We geared up for it big time, offering many products below cost along with a Windows 95 purchase. People lined up outside the doors before we [...]

Who knew back in 2000 that 9 years later the PlayStation 2 would still be going so strong? The price slash of the PS2 down to $99 really made people go out and buy the system. It looks like this system will never go away.
Here are the top consoles for April 2009:
1. Nintendo DSi

I originally didn’t consider purchasing a Wii Fit. The games looked way too simple for me to enjoy. We’re in an age of complex video games that require thousands of buttons to have fun. Skiing downhill? What kind of fun would that be for a video game. I purchased one though after my girfriend told [...]

Electronic Arts bought Maxis back in 1997, acquiring the rights to the SimCity franchise. [...]

I should be able to walk into a store right now and purchase a Wii, but thanks to Nintendo’s uncanny ability to piss me along with all the other potential buyers off, I can’t. I know I could buy a bundle online. I also know if I digg deep enough I could acquire one. I [...]
