The stereotypical image that most people have of gamers is either a plump and pasty teenage boy surrounded by empty Mountain Dew cans or the image of a plump and pasty middle aged guy who lives with his mom. [I’m not talking about you of course]
Slowly, but surely, this stereotype is being turned on its […]

Each and every week I post one of Yahtzee’s reviews. I do this with the hope that I can convince you that he’s damn hilarious.
Scratch that.
I do this because I throughly enjoy his reviews and he makes me laugh…and I have a mild crush on him.
Well, maybe not a real crush, per se. […]

First Nintendo announced that there were Wii shortages in the U.S. and the U.K..
Not a big deal. They switched the ads in the U.K. so that people would fixate on the DS instead and promised rain checks to us Yanks.

DS kicked some major console ass last week according to Media Create.
The “little hand held that could”, sold 124,627 in Japan, up from 116,694 the week before.
The next closest system was the Wii with 54362.

If the DS keeps on selling like it’s selling, it will […]

You’re not wanting a Wii for Christmas, right? Santa brought you one last year so you don’t need one this year.
I really hope that’s the case because Gamasutra is reporting that “demand is likely to outstrip supply well into next year”.
Think April of next year.
Thank sucks, guys. Sorry to hear that.
But, with the […]

The October numbers for console sales are out folks.
The Wii is kicking much console ass and is now the top console in the world! That’s right…the world.
360 is holding strong and Sony as a whole is doing good with PS2 and PSP sales…PS3 not so much.
I keep keeping my fingers crossed for the PS3. […]
