The World Is Flat
The Wii menu screenshot is not mine. Not even I’m crazy enough to pay for Soccer or Wario Woods. I don’t own any of my old systems anymore, except for an NES and a Dreamcast gathering dust at my mother’s house. Aside from, er, “other” means, the Virtual Console has become my gateway to relive [...]

Resident Evil 4 – Coming to the Wii for 30$
I made this little clip just as “eye candy” for this article. The Wiimote model was created by WiiNintendo and can be downloaded here, so you can make your own stupid fun movies.

Microsoft on another one of its (wildly successful) money-making scams
Some of you may have heard of the upcoming Xbox 360 Elite. The name would imply that it is highly superior to its counterparts, which is not the case. The biggest new feature is that it is black… as if users didn’t grow sick of the black skin on the original Xbox. Here is a [...]

The emergence of a brand new NiGHTS also appears to be confirmed by a third-party, in this case Gamereactor magazine and its April 2007 cover story. [...]
