    Because of leaks, we need to immediately implement DRM on console games

    It's time we start implementing DRM on console games. I mean, look at this nonsense. The Xbox 360 version of BioShock 2 leaked yesterday, a full five days before its official release.

Granted, it's only a few days before the game actually comes out, but still, the biggest release of the year (so far) is now available where you find such things. I'll be getting the PC version via Steam, thank you very much. (There's nothing after this. Clicking Read More is a waste of your time.)

    BioWare tries to balance the BioWare way with the attraction of new fans with Mass Effect 2

    Ladies and gentlemen, I have a conundrum. As many of you know, Mass Effect 2 comes out on January 26. It's the first big game of the year. There's only one problem: I'm having a heck of a hard time getting excited about it. What's wrong with me, because clearly something is?
