    G4 Cancels Videogame Programming

    X-Play is responsible for me getting heavily into games. Since it was dropped from DirecTv, I haven't been able to watch it except on Hulu. I was sad to see Sessler leave, and I haven't seen him anywhere else yet, I hope he stays in game journalism. I hope he continues his long teamup with...

    Amazon E-book Sales Top Traditional Books

    This does gratify me. I do enjoy reading ebooks even more than I enjoy reading regular books. Now, with increased prices, maybe someone can do some investigating as to why ebook prices "mysteriously" jumped after apple entered the market and haven't come down yet.

    [UPDATE] PSN Password Reset Vulnerable to Exploit

    No, Sony isn't any different than a bunch of other sites. Both Microsoft & Apple's ID's aren't that hard if you just have a few simple pieces of info. This is an overarching problem that isn't going away with Sony making a few adjustments.

    Duke Nukem Forever Nearly Died Without a Script

    The story of this game's development and final release gets more and more fascinating and unique. I really hope someone publishes a well-researched book about it once it is out. I would be very interested in reading it.

    EA Games Chief: "We Are on the Offense," Working on Mirror's Edge 2

    Mirror's Edge is one of the greatest games I've ever played. I originally played it on my PS3 and I just replaced it on my PC (yes, liked it so much I bought it twice). Hoping they do more. The entire universe of that game fascinates me. It deserves to be revisited.

    Homefront Sells 375,000 on Launch Day

    I'm glad it is doing well. It didn't do enough to captivate me story wise that I am willing to pay launch day prices for it, but I am looking forward to experience it at a lower price. I enjoy story-driven games and what I consider to be a good story often differs from many of the reviewers, so...

    Why Child of Eden Made Me Cry

    Dthree brings up a point I forgot about that I hope is in Child of Eden: Tourist Mode. That really was something about Rez that I loved. The ability to play it for the simple sake of playing it. A feature I think more games should have without needing a cheat code. Sometimes, I like playing the...

    Why Child of Eden Made Me Cry

    One of those rare games I am actually willing to get on day one. I loved Rez. Loved Space Channel 5 even more. Can't wait for this one. Hope I do not need a Kinect to play it, though.

    David Jaffe Predicts Next Console Generation Will Be the Last

    Meh, just drop the price from $60 to $40 or even $30 and I'll buy a crapload more new games than I currently do now. As it is, I save a ton of money by buying new, but simply waiting a few months after release to pick it up.

    GameStop Nailed With Class Action Over Deceptive Used Sales

    Is that all? I thought someone was finally taking Gamestop to task to selling used games without a cover or manual for the same price as thosecwith covers and manuals. Or the horrible conditions of many of thier used game disks. Legitimate problems there. But this--this is moronic.

    Controller Evolution

    Here's my question to this: how are new gamers learning proficiency on these controllers? I am old enough that my first games were on a Colecovision with the simple joysticks. After the gaming crashes of the 80s, I didn't get a console again until the PS2. But during all that time, I was still...
