Do you own a PS2? Congratulations, Soldier.
Chris Deering at Sony predicts that there will be more Playstation 2s than Wiis in living rooms worldwide by 2011. This isn’t the first time Sony has boasted about the PS2’s longevity; I’m starting to sniff out an ulterior motive for axing backwards compatibility on the Playstation 3.

So here I am in Bahtamore. I’d rather not speak of the twenty-four hour train trip that carried me here; I’m sure I’ll re-visit its relaxing atmosphere often enough when I die and wind up in hell for my sins.
Today’s society adores a quick fix above wholesome foods or a dog’s unconditional kiss on the […]

In today’s edition of “Yeah, We’ll Just See About That,” gaming behemoth EA has decided to wean itself off the licensed crap it’s been known for coughing up. From here on out, it’s all about original titles and hard work says EA CEO John Riccitiello.
Nope, no more quick cash-ins. No more cranking out movie titles […]

An error made by Best Buy highlights fandom’s willingness to cling to the false and useless. The chain store advertises Final Fantasy VIII for the Playstation 3 as being on sale mid-August.
Needless to say, that’s probably not the case. The shelfmonkeys at Best Buy probably weren’t paying attention and a casualty of hope happened.
Look […]

TRUFAX: Jewel cases and boxes for reduced-price “Greatest Hits” have been sinfully ugly since the 32-bit era of gaming. The PSOne was the worst offender with its screaming flu-snot green sidebar. “HEY I’M FINAL FANTASY VII, BUY ME AGAIN FOR THE FIRST TIME!!”
Today, Sony launches the Playstation 3’s Greatest Hits line. Doth […]

Playback, which is Yahoo’s gaming news depository (everyone has one) has a small video feature about rock star relationships with Guitar Hero and Rock Band. It is interesting because it also reveals which band still refuses to be featured on the digital stage.

In the 8 and 16-bit era of video gaming, there was a lot of cloak-and-dagger business going on behind Mario’s big jolly facade and Sonic’s confident smirk.
The game industry remains competitive. It’s not a Church picnic footrace where everyone can be told “Hooray, you’re a winner!” just for participating. Nevertheless, things don’t feel as fierce […]

Poop on you, E3. It’s not like we needed your boring old statistics, anyway. The games are the real champions of the show, and Kombo.com has a nice hands-on of Capcom’s Street Fighter IV.
Bonus trailer with chatty Street Fighter bitches that need to get on IRC!

Videogame Land was long overdue for a good old fashioned coup and it looks like the day has finally arrived. Ladies, gentlemen and everyone else, Final Fantasy XIII will not be a Playstation 3 exclusive. The latest title in Square-Enix’s flagship series will be released on the Xbox 360 as well.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: I am hungry.
IMPORTANTER NOTICE: I just cleaned out my spam queue and what do you think I found? Not the swirling Hell portal I was looking for, but something significant regardless: a whole bunch of legitimate comments.
If you’ve posted something to me in the past little while and it’s not shown up, I […]
