From our front-page news: Considering the fact that the PS2 is still selling well in the marketplace, it's hard to imagine that the console is actually dying. But according to reports, software sales fell 47% in September over last year, whereas August was 33%. For one month, that's quite a...

From our front-page news: A recent Apple hiring spree is now making more sense, as reports are that over 800 employees have been sacked. The cause? When Apple released those $100 iPhone rebates, it turns out that all of these employees partook in them as well. The only problem is, they got their...

From our front-page news: Oh Canada, what the hell? If a new measure goes through, it means that those who purchase legal music online (iTunes, Puretracks, etc) will be taxed. The requested charges would be $0.021 per individual song or $0.015 per song if a full album is purchased. Users of...

From our front-page news: According to DigiTimes, the ASUS Eee is going to cost more than we originally anticipated, at around $360USD. Part of this is due to the fact that the 7" LCD panels cost more than expected. The other part is the fact that the US was never meant to see the $199 version...

From our front-page news: Considering that NBC broke up with Apple early last month, it should be no surprise that they've also just broken up with YouTube. But, it's hard to put the blame at them since they are going to be launching their own online video site shortly, which is supposed to...

From our front-page news: The Ring is an ultimate test for any car and all drivers. It offers intense corners, constant change in elevation and one massive straight-away that allows most cars to hit their top speed before reaching the end. It's no surprise that so many car manufacturers use the...

From our front-page news: Half-Life 2: Episode Two has been out for close to two weeks now, so there's a good chance most players have by now finished it. But did you truly finish it? You may have noticed that Valve included a whack of achievements to unlock throughout your adventure, and one in...

I am not sure where my head is sometimes. I uninstalled the Maximus Formula motherboard to reinstall the P5E3 in order to double-check some performance results. Once the P5E3 was installed, it clicked in that I forgot to take pictures of the BIOS for the Formula, which our reviews always...

From our front-page news: We knew for weeks that a 40GB Playstation 3 was going to happen in Australia, but thanks to a blog post by SCEA CEO Jack Tretton, we now also know that it will be making its way over to our shores. Sadly, like the version we knew about before, this one will suffer the...

So... I've been spending the past few days with this motherboard and so far, it's great. Nothing mind-blowing, but it's on the same caliber as the Blitz Formula board (though I haven't compared the two directly, yet). The board is feature packed BIOS-wise, includes STALKER and 3DMark 06 and...

From our front-page news: It's not often that we can experience a CEO from one company bolting and then admit to falling in love with another companies product afterwards. But, that's what happened with Linspire's ex-CEO Kevin Carmony, who recently made a post on the Ubuntu forums admitting to...

From our front-page news: If you knew that Nintendo Japan was still supporting the Famicom, Super Famicom and Nintendo 64, you deserve a nice pat on the back. I for one, had no idea, but am impressed nonetheless. Due to the rarity of support parts, they are finally pulling support for those...

From our front-page news:I admit it. I am a massive Tony Hawk's Pro Skater fan and have been since the first release way back in 1999. I'm not a skateboarder, but I quickly realized you didn't need to be in order to enjoy the games. The series offered a perfect combination of mind boggling...

From our front-page news: According to the Associated Press, Best Buy has discontinued selling analog televisions beginning this month. The retailer is ahead of schedule with this move, since the government-imposed mandate for selling digital TVs only is not effective until Feb, 2009. I have to...

From our front-page news post:According to a new study, games for the Xbox 360 that include great achievements to unlock sell better overall, and also receive better review scores. I could see how this could be the case, since it feels great to be acknowledged whenever you accomplish something...

From our front-page news: Alright. I thought I was excited that Bionic Commando was coming back, but I believe an announcement of Street Fight IV effectively beats the heck out of that one, with a nicely executed combo of course. Right now, not much is known about the game, except that it's...

The EatMeCrunchy cereal bowl uses a milk reservoir system to expose only a small part of the cereal to milk at any one time, which means that most of the cereal stays high, dry, and crunchy throughout the meal. http://www.boingboing.net/2007/10/17/eatmecrunchy-cereal.html Odd, as hell.
