This is NOT Wii bashing...
But not all is superb in dreamland.
“The kind of person that buys a Wii is not the same kind of person that buys a PS3 or an Xbox,” said John Greiner. Well duh.
(See, I do read Wii articles... Can't we all get along ?)
So, I was a Blackwalt's this weekend
And sure enough, Patches wasn't happy:
Pachelbel hell.
My previous story had a sound track that wasn't too shabby, but it was actually Pachelbel's Canon. I played it *soo* much when I was a third clarinet for the school band.
That's why I laughed until I cried when I saw the Pachelbel's Rant on Youtube: Read more
Pac-Man a doo-doo
Well, I am surprised that we have never had this particular conversation on this site...
Now we know the truth behind Snuffy D's disappearance
Moving?!?! Didn't think so
Snuffy D has finally brought one of his brilliant plans to fruitition.
He used this poor toddler to properly develop his infiltration plans.
Using these plans Snuffy D has managed to break into one of these unique claw arcade machines.
Rescuers have gotten to him twice but Snuffy D has managed to fight them off both times. Don't expect him back on the site soon.
Rumour: GTA IV downloadable content to be MASSIVE!!
GamerVision has an article up claiming that the Xbox 360 downloadable content for GTA4 will be entire new cities!
If this is true it would suck to be a Playstation 3 owner!
As if it doesn't already.
Remind me to "rearrange" MoriceRevek's Xbox setup next time I am at his house
Just in case he makes it out alive.
Joystiq reports about a Xbox 360 power brick causing a fire in Little Rock, Ark.
Apparently the owner has never heard of ventilation.
This lesson only cost him $100,000. I hope he isn't allowed to buy another Xbox 360 with the insurance money.
I pose a conundrum, a riddle if you will.
What is gigantic like a whale,
dumber than the rest,
and likes to look into mirrors?
You gotta be kidding!
Ok now, a video game catered to running around Vegas and 'living the life'
They must have had Revek in mind for this one....

Sorry Rev, couldn't resist.
Happy Birthday Coxxorz!
U suck!!
Snuffy D, Hardw00d, and I pieced together a DVD cover of Grand Theft Auto IV and put it onto a green DVD case as a gift. The case contained a Future Shop gift card with the instructions "only for GTA IV".
Knowing him, however, I expect he will ignore us and blow it all on clearance HD DVDs instead. Either way I expect that at least one of us will be buying Grand Theft Auto IV eventually.
So Happy Birthday to him.
Now you can buy a Mac clone! ...again.
A company going by the cool name of "Psystar" is offering x86 hardware with Mac OSX Leopard pre-installed. FRom their website:
"Why pay more for a Mac you can't upgrade or buy a used one when you can have an Open Computer for less?"
I dunno... maybe because you don't want a giant toaster on your desk that requires a complete OS reinstall every time there's an update?
Has Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare ruined other First Person Shooters?
Sarcastic Gamer has a opinion on how Call of Duty 4 has raised the bar too high. Has COD4 ruined other new FPSs?
I know it definitely tainted Rainbow Six Vegas 2 as far as I was concerned.
Review: eastern standard tribe by Cory Doctorow
Yes, the title is lower-case.
This is my first novel-length story from Cory, a good 'ol canuck. The story follows Art Berry, an EST-born dude living in the GMT timezone. The major premise of the story is that Art feels loyalty to his EST timezone and works as an agent-provocateur by working for an England firm and introducing complexity into projects given to him in order to sabotage them. This way, he gets the GMT-based company in hot water, and makes EST-based companies look better in comparison. Read more
