Image courtesy of digitaltrends I’m still not really sure how I feel about the Playstation Network being hacked – which we have covered here, here, here, here and here – but I can say that I’ll fully be accepting Playstation’s good-natured apology. Good service is hard to come by these days but Sony is all [...]

Wii Game Review: Monopoly Streets
As I have said before, my family loves playing board games, and rather obviously I am a big video game fan – something I share with my kids (my wife, not so much). So video-board games seem like an obvious attraction for us. Monopoly Streets is the latest one we have tried, involving family and [...]
Gear Games Review: Atari C-100 Pong Home System
As anyone who has whiled away the hours playing Dungeon or Trek on your PDP-10 or S/360 knows – video games are fast becoming a BIG DEAL! Atari has caught on to this phenomenon, and already released the exciting Pong arcade game a couple of years back. But now they are ready to take it [...]
Turtle Beach Announces a Fresh Trio of Gaming Headsets For Your Fraggin Enjoyment
Image courtesy of Turtle Beach Turtle Beach is one of the oldest names in computer audio that I can remember. Back when i needed premium audio for Oregon Trail I knew who I could turn to. Now in 2011 if you want to get serious with console gaming audio, then look no further. Turtle Beach [...]
PC/XBOX360/PS3 Game Review: ‘Meh’dal of Honor
I would assume that the expression ‘meh’ as something average or unimpressive is widely enough known to anyone with internet experience that it is fair to say that I have ‘tipped my hand’ as far as my opinion goes. So you can leave now knowing I thought Medal of Honor was a mediocre and very [...]
PC/XBOX360/PS3 Game Review: Alpha Protocol
What the HECK took me so long to get my review of Alpha Protocol done? Didn’t I mention months ago having finished the game? Didn’t I later say I was going back and replaying again … and haven’t some months ensued since THAT as well? It is all true, and since then I have gone [...]
AAFES Still Says No to M.O.H. on US Bases, Even After EA Removes “Taliban” Label
Image courtesy of HDWallpapers Video game developers and production studios and publishers are no strangers to controversy over video game titles and content. In the past few weeks Electronic Arts and Danger Close have been under fire from the military organization AAFES (Army Air Force Exchange Service) about their new Medal of Honor (MoH) title. [...]
PC/XBOX360/PS3 Game Review: Dragon Age: Origins – Witch Hunt DLC
Last month I reviewed the Golems of Amgarrek DLC, the month before that I reviewed the Leliana’s Song DLC, and the month before that I reviewed the Darkspawn Chronicles DLC with each one representing very different types of gaming experiences within the context of the Dragon Age universe: one was combat driven and narrow, one [...]
PC/XBOX360/PS3 Game Review: Dragon Age: Origins Golems of Amgarrak DLC
Last month I reviewed the Leliana’s Song DLC and the month before that I reviewed the Darkspawn Chronicles DLC, with each one representing very different types of gaming experiences within the context of the Dragon Age universe: one was combat driven and narrow, and the other was a character study that got us behind the [...]
PC/XBOX360 Game Review: Dragon Age: Origins Leliana’s Song DLC
Last month I reviewed the Darkspawn Chronicles DLC, saying that even at “$5 in Microsoft Points … it has questionable value.” I found it “a single-minded module that lasts about an hour, adds a single new item to the main game, and offers little replayability” … and was really just an average add-on in general. [...]
Nintendo DS News: R4 ‘Piracy Enabling’ Carts Now Illegal In UK
I think by now I’ve made it known that I am frothingly anti-piracy, so the new ruling in the UK that bans the R4 Revolution and similar devices thrills me. The high court set a new precedent by adjusting that it is illegal for the R4 card to circumvent Nintendo’s security systems in order to [...]

Some recent news suggests that the former console maker could be staging a comeback in to the console business.

My Summary of Sony’s E3 Presentation: Buy Our 3D TV’s, We Make a Better Wii-Mote, People Are Too Dumb for the PSP
I am honestly beginning to believe that hubris is so tightly ingrained in the Sony Corporate culture that ‘berate the customer day’ likely stands alongside ‘casual Friday’ as a regular occurrence. OK, perhaps that is a bit harsh, but what came out of the mouths of Sony at their E3 press event were definitely NOT [...]
Dragon Age: Origins The Darkspawn Chronicles DLC: PC/XBOX360 Game Review
I have already detailed my feelings about the epic role-playing game Dragon Age: Origins, stating in my review that “not only do I love nearly every aspect of the game, I also love how after finishing it a couple of times I am thoroughly enjoying a new play-through as I contemplate my actions and consequences [...]
