As of today, Lik-Sang will no longer take any orders due to the result of the multiple legal actions brought against it, by none other than the ever-decreasing-in-popularity, Sony.

As of today, Lik-Sang.com will not be in the position to accept any new orders and will cancel and refund all existing orders that have already been […]

Despite the overall success of the Nintendo DS worldwide, and the positive response from the majority of gamers regarding their upcoming “Wii” console, not all Nintendo consoles are selling as well as big N had hoped.

In E3 2005, Reggie said that Nintendo was focusing on a 3 pillar strategy, and they would continue to support […]

These “top-whatever” lists rarely qualify as news to me, but this Maxim one I particularly enjoyed. Each rank is accompanied by a video of the kill (faint of heart, don’t click) and the selections are honestly quite good. I can’t say I agree with the rankings of the kills, but this is only […]

It would appear that vocal anti-video game crusader, Jack Thompson, might be going to court again…as the defendant, this time. Take-Two entertainment has filed a motion to declare Thompson in contempt of court.
Naturally, Thompson responded in the most reserved, professional fashion possible: he sent angry, threatening letters to Judge John Friedman and the attorneys […]

Weird Al Yankovic, master of musical parodies and humorous songs (remember “The Saga Begins,” “Like a Surgeon,” and “Smells Like Nirvana”?) has a new single and video taking a stab at the issue of online music sharing.

Since it’s their birthday, what do you plan on giving your iPod? Mine […]

1up.com has posted preview of the upcoming Phantasy Star game, which will be released tomorrow in the United States. After playing the Beta, they addressed Sega’s very own Jason Kuo and asked him a few questions. Here are some of the Q&A’s I found most relevant.

1UP: How old, development-wise, was the version of the game […]

Well, what is it that can be said of .hack//Roots now that I’ve finished watching it. Bear with me, as I give my opinion right now, but overall, I found it a bit disappointing.

Even though I really enjoyed the first part of the anime, when the turnaround event occured the show went downhill until a […]

The absolute maximum amount of playtime achieved with a Zune has been released, and it’s 14 hours. This was achieved by using the following settings:

After owning a Sony Vaio laptop for almost 2 years I accidentally stumbled upon a “hidden”, almost completely useless trick. When you try to adjust the sound or monitor brightness via the function keys after activating the adjustment menu you can regulate it by either pressing the “-” or “+” Function keys (the default), or […]
