Make sure you read the equipment list at the end. Read more to see the whole system! (via Playstation.com)
 The addiction that is the Wii is now spreading to the highest levels of royalty. The lastest victim? Her Royal Highness, the Queen! After Prince William got one for Christmas, he can't seem to get it back from his grandmother.
So what happens after they say "I do" (or level up)? Why, a gaming themed reception, of course!
So, what was so great about this WiiGH3 on eBay? A father bought the game and guitar for his son as a Christmas present. Unfortunately, when dad found his son smoking pot in the backyard his punishment was swift and profitable... (via eBay)
If you need to know what to get the ultimate gamer who already has everything, I have the answer. It seems an avid and knowledgable gamer is selling off a 30 year collection of games and systems. Why? Who knows? Who cares?

Product placement has been around as long as, well, as long as there have been products. Often times it's more effective than conventional advertising. Afterall, who wouldn't want to drink the same beer as our big or small screen hero? I myself have talked about the product placement in video games. Well here's the opposite.
 Soooo...it took an entire six days to hack the fixes out of Manhunt 2? The guys must be losing their touch.
OK, so according to the official website, E for All was a huge success. While the attendance numbers were rather small, (18,000 over the four day period) the ticket prices probably had alot to do with that. Couple in the fact that you couldn't just do one day and you probably end up with a little customer dissatisfaction.
OK. So Take-Two Interactive(TTI) and Rockstar have toned down the upcoming 'Manhunt 2.' Some of the gratuitously violent kills have been blurred and/or changed. Doesn't matter, if you live in the U.K. The game is still banned there.
...of the left over XP discs? Actually, I'm heartened by the fact that Gates and Co. have opted to extend the release of Win XP for an additional 6 months.
 Wanna see what was REALLY hot in Tokyo? Then vote for the hottest booth babe of the 2007 Tokyo Game Show!

 ...whatever sponsor has purchased the priviledge of advertising in that portion of the game. Nothing new there, but the advertisement might not be the same as the last time you looked. Magic?

 There seems to be an awful lot of press lately about gaming addictions and how it affects those around the addicted. Most of it is told from the view of the spouse or partner of the gamer, and thus, it's negative. Like anything else in this world, moderation and common sense have to be applied.
Once upon a time, TV, movies and especially video games could be counted on for hours or indeed days and weeks of mindless entertainment. Now, it seems, the reality of real life is slowly creeping in to my last escape. |

The coolest PS3 setup - EVER!
Now, I am a pretty big fan of home audio systems. I have even had the opportunity to see some pretty amazing setup. However, this one takes the cake, the whole enchilada, or any other analogy you want to throw at it?
Normally for us game geeks, we don't have much time for relationships. But it looks like a few of our comrades have braved away from their consoles long enough to find some long term companionship.
You read that right - $9000 for a copy of Wii Guitar Hero III. Yes, it sounds crazy, and, and come to think of it, it is. Good auction descriptions can raise the price of an item. Great descriptions can bring crazy prices. For example, a copy of a $90 game for $9100.01! 
...this new game by German company Saatchi & Saatchi. Marketed to bars and clubs, the device is simply a pee controlled video game meant to let patrons know they are too drunk to drive.
