Ten Things Wrong With the Gaming Industry
In: Articles by Edie Sellers
6 Aug 2010There’s a lot good with the video-game industry. Compare your favorite game a decade ago and your favorite game today. You’ll see better graphics, better stories, better controls. In few markets have consumers been able to witness a near vertical increase in design, capability, and content as with their video games. However, with bigger consoles, [...]
The Greatest Handheld Made
In: Articles by Chris "FighterAce100" Salazar
3 Aug 2010I love my PSP. I was the proud owner of one of the first made PSPs to come out on its launch all those years back. Yes, even in Montana, a gamer could get his hands on all the new toys that come out. Thank god for Best Buy. Being the proud owner of the [...]

In: Articles by Dave "Holy Goalie" Gardner
26 Jul 2010I like my Wii. It may not be as big as the other consoles. It may not get as much play as the other consoles. Some people may get bored with it rather easily, but it’s mine and I’m keeping it. Microsoft had it’s big announcement at E3 this year about the Kinect, formerly Project [...]
Kinect: Dead on Arrival at $150
In: Articles by Nick "Alsop Live" Dinicola

I LoveHate Digital Distribution
In: Articles by Nick "Alsop Live" Dinicola
20 Jul 2010Apparently 60 percent of gamers prefer physical media to digital downloads. I used to be like that, I used swear that discs were the only way to go, that nothing beat actually holding something in your hand. But over the past couple years the Xbox Live Arcade, Playstation Network, and Steam have done a lot [...]
