Holy Cow does this look like FUN! This appears to be the first game since Wii Bowling that I might actually want to play. I’ve bought so many games for the Wii and can safely say that only [...]
Perhaps you kid around when it comes time to wail. Maybe you feel rock and roll is a game. Not the guys over at Uncrate, they’ve found a way to take it to the next level — show lighting for their home Rock Band concerts. For only $100 you can feel even more authentic in [...]
Check out Corey Haim’s personal website—the blinking evilness will take over your MIND! (Just when I thought Tom Cruise had the title.)

1 Comment Published by Jason March 13th, 2008 in Gadgets, Games, Music, Uncategorized. Share ThisSeems Gibson, maker of fine guitars, feels Activision is infringing a patent it holds around guitar simulations.
It seems, however, that Gibson isn’t at all satisfied with the arrangement it has with Activision. Gibson has sent a notice to Activision declaring that the games publisher is infringing upon the guitar maker’s patent for a concept similar [...]
Now thats effing stupid!

Share ThisI’m normally okay with the creativity and dedication it takes to participate in cosplay, but this instance just pisses me off.
