Here’s something interesting I found via our sister site, the Apple Gazette. In a recent bloggers’ convention within Microsoft’s headquarters, Bill Gates discussed digital rights management (DRM) and gave his opinion on its current state and the future. It seems Gates is sympathizing with the end-user, particularly with the notion that DRM can be too […]
I mostly picked up this trade paperback out of my undying love for Ghost Rider. The presence of Wolverine was just an added bonus, really. This trade collects the Wolverine segments of Marvel Comics Presents #62-71. Marvel Comics Presents originally contained four stories per issue, so as a result, each Wolverine segment […]

J.Coulston has recently configured the Wiimote with GlovePIE to work as a control for Google Earth. You can’t aim the cursor across the screen, but by using the tilting sensor he is easily able to navigate through the Earth with the program.

Today I was lucky enough to pickup the Classic Controller for the Wii. I wasn’t thinking about purchasing it yet, but since it was available (and much isn’t) I decided to get it alongside with a Wii Points Card. So as soon as I got home, I was off to grabbing a piece of gaming […]
According to the site Videgame Charts, the Nintendo Wii has sold 2 million units worldwide, while the PS3 hasn’t event sold 1 million. Part of this could be due to supply, but I am also sure that the price tag on the PS3 has something to do with it.
Now, if I could just find a […]

A great deal if you are a Mac […]
It has been eleven years since Goldeneye, the last good James Bond film, in my honest opinion. While the other Pierce Brosnan offerings had their moments, they felt more like generic over-the-top action films with the character of James Bond shoe-horned in as an after-thought, to the point of feeling like a self parody. Itâs […]
If you think the price of the PlayStation3 is too prohibitive, you can always resort to options. Here’s the cheapest PS3 we’ve seen, so far.

Futurama is on its way back with an expected season premier in 2008 as well as some DVD movies and episodes to tide fans over. What to expect? Well, David X. Cohen, writer and producer, spills the beans in an interview with Wizard Entertainment. He doesn’t give too much away, as one […]
Rankin-Bass, outside their stop-motion holiday films, never really reached the same level as Disney or Don Bluth when it came to animated fantasy films. Yet, they did manage to create three of my all-time favorites. And, so, here are my reviews for their three best accomplishments, but sadly, only two of them ar […]
It seems like the Wii is also gaining a lot of momentum on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, since they’ve just beaten the previous console sales record established by the XBox 360:
Nintendo has reported sales of 105,000 Wiis over the weekend, smashing the record of 70,000 set by the Xbox 360.
Even though […]
After an amazing streak of bad luck (and a terrible release campaign), Sony is claiming that all manufacturing problems have been solved, and that they are back on track to fulfilling their “1 million consoles by the end of 2006″ promise.
“We will continue to utilise airfreight delivery for PlayStation 3 to assure a steady stream […]
Lately there have been some problems with Microsoft’s tech support. In fact, someone already made a lawsuit against them because of their poor service and failure to comply with the warranties they issue.
Basically, what happened is that a person bought an XBox 360, and two weeks later it bricked, so he phoned the XBox tech […]
