    China's Knockoff Gundam Gets a Hideous Makeover

    probly would have been better if they did black, white, and yellow accent for a color scheme instead that horrible primary color mess w/green nuke symbol. least i don't have look at it everyday...also maybe it's just the lighting in the picture but the yellow parts of the legs and the shoulder...

    Interplay Calls Bethesda's Fallout Claim "Absurd"

    You apparently don't realize the power of the microtransaction market. A while back I played a game on my wife's old iphone that was a medieval take on the "ville" idea because I was curious about the whole casual thing. I ended up on a brand new server and after 3 days there was one guy that...

    Interplay Calls Bethesda's Fallout Claim "Absurd"

    I guess if it goes sour for Interplay they can use the Fallout trademark to make "FalloutVille" just to be an arse to Bethesda. That and make millions off of the casual market.

    Microsoft: Xbox Phone Launch Bigger Than Xbox 360's

    I love how Tetris and Monopoly are part of their "Big portfolio". I think those two games have been availiable for any mobile phone with a screen and the ability to connect to some version of the Internet. I remember getting monopoly on the first cell phone I ever got, and it was one of those...

    Ex-3D Realms Head Lost "$20-30 Million" on Duke Nukem Forever

    I wonder if that 20-30 million was in addition to other funds. In any case it's a lot of cash. Got to admire his commitment to quality. At the same time though, you gotta wonder what the heck was going on. Seems to me that after couple of years someone would have asked "what's going wrong here...

    Panasonic Reveals New Online Gaming Handheld

    It's nice to a new contender in the mix, although with this entering so late in the game it would have to be freaking amazing and have an impressive lineup just to survive. If it's reliant on currently existing titles like WOW I don't see it going to far just because so many people would rather...

    Epic Boss Sees a Mobile Future for Consoles

    As much as something like this could be possible by the next console generation I just don't see it happening. The expense of making smaller motherboards and the alike is rather high. A Droid phone without a 2-year service agreement runs something like 600$. Making a console that is actually...

    PS3 Pushes Blu-ray Into Nearly 20% of U.S. Homes

    I like the blu-Ray format better than DVD. I'd own more if it wasn't for the fact that a lot of the stuff I'd buy on blu-Ray I already have on DVD. That and netflix. Don't see much reason to buy many movies when I can watch pretty much as many as I want for the price of just one each month.

    FPS Developers Support Call of Duty Subscriptions

    I did some math on this. In order for them keep the same amount of income they'd have to keep quite a bit of their player base for this to not shot themselves in the foot. They'd have to keep 66.67% if they charged 5$/mo, 50% at 10$/mo and 40% at 15$/mo in order to have the same income that they...

    BioWare Mythic Swears Warhammer Online Isn't a Money Pit

    Yea, Warcraft would probly have a difficult time if it was difined by what it was was at launch against more resent mmos, although that was quite a while ago that it was...

    Ubisoft is "World's Least Consistent Videogame Publisher"

    looking over the article, Metacritic's grading system seems a bit fuzzy. i redid the math myself using the following system: 100-90=4 89-80=3 79-70=2 69-60=1 and 59-0=0 and the results seem to make more sense (although i did use the data in the arcticle as refence instead of trying to go to a...
