PS3 Linux class action lawsuit coming at ya
Posted on April 29, 2010 | No CommentsLooks like Sony now finds itself on the business end of a class-action lawsuit. You'll recall that a recent PS3 firmware update removed the "Other OS" option from the console, preventing owners from installing Linux (which was one of the selling points when the PS3 first came out in 2006). The removal upset one California gentleman, who filed suit with the note "Sony's decision to force users to disable the Other OS function was based on its own interest and was made at the expense of its customers."

Boy Scouts announce a Cub Scout video game belt loop, not merit badge
Posted on April 28, 2010 | No Comments
Listen, I know it's easy to make fun of Boy Scouts. I've heard my share of "Go build a birdhouse" jabs being an Eagle Scout myself, but let's get this straight. The just-announced video game belt loop isn't for Boy Scouts, it's for elementary-aged Cub Scouts. So let's take it down a notch or two, Internet.

Netflix comes to the Nintendo Wii
Posted on April 12, 2010 | No CommentsOfficially official (as opposed to rumored, I suppose): You can now stream Netflix on your Nintendo Wii. You can only stream in standard definition, so if that matters to you… Oh, and you’ll need to request a streaming disc, à la the PS3, in order to stream content. That’s about it. -

New Super Mario Bros. Wii is the fastest single-console game to reach 10 million sold
Posted on January 25, 2010 | No CommentsCan we agree that Modern Warfare 2 was an average shooter, just one that happened to be backed by a gigantic marketing budget? It wasn't bad, certainly, but the story was bat-shit crazy—Red Dawn was more plausible—and No Russian was so clearly developed to spark controversy. This is why this Mario story warms my heart so. New Super Mario Bros. Wii is now the fastest-selling game on a single console to reach 10 million units sold worldwide. The previous record holder was Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

Lexar announces new line of “Gamer” SDHC cards
Posted on November 19, 2009 | No Comments

Other then labeling, I'm not sure what else makes these gamer level memory cards special.

Japan's Nikkei reported the same thing nearly two months ago, but it's only now that someone at Lazard Capital Markets has officially predicted such a store for the North American market.
