    More Animal Crossing 3DS Details Jump Out

    Dude, chill out. He has a club and plays chiptunes on special "Famicom Nights", but he still plays the guitar. It's all here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ag-ylFizV80

    Zero Punctuation: Top 5 of 2011

    That was a close one. I seriously thought he was going to slap Skyward Sword, one of my personal games of the year, up on his list of bottom 5 for the year, considering the thrashing he gave it. Maybe I should try Driver: San Francisco...

    Skyward Sword

    While I respect Yahtzee's opinion on the matter (I have been seeing his arguments quite a lot), I still insist that Skyward Sword is one of the best Zelda games I've played. Granted, I'm yet to finish Link's Awakening, and I thought Ocarina of Time just wasn't very good. Very rarely as I played...

    Lulzsec Hacks Bethesda

    If they really thought this would speed up the development process of Skyrim, then they're even more of morons than I suspected.

    Identity Theft Feared as Hackers Hijack Medical Server to Play Black Ops

    It's kind of like what happened in Diehard 4, except that was not a kind thing to do.

    Kinect (Sort Of) Hacked Into a Real-Time X-Ray

    Chances are that programming games for Xbox is very similar to programming systems for Windows, thus making hacking any subsequent peripherals much easier, since it only requires a translation of knowledge. However, with the master key for the PS3 finally released, chances are that we will soon...

    Miyamoto Dreams About Rivalling Rubik's Cube

    Pikmin? Nintendogs? Luigi's Mansion? Chibi-Robo? (acted as senior producer)

    Rumor: Microsoft Tinkering With 360 D-Pad [UPDATED]

    The grayscale buttons are the deterrer for me; my dad can't play the 360 because he's yet to memorize the locations of the buttons by name, only color. Plus, he's colorblind, but I'm fairly certain the lack of color would still interfere.

    Valve: PlayStation 3 Incredibly Important to Us

    The reason Steamworks is being brought to the PS3 and not to the 360 is because of the way LIVE is built compared to the PSN. LIVE is a closed system, tightly controlled by Microsoft and their money-scrambling ways, while the PSN has a more open system, so developers can mold the online...

    On Arty 2D Platformers

    I still haven't beaten Cave Story, due to the fact that I got the Booster v2.0. That just makes that one level with the blood droplets even harder.

    Epic Mickey "Could Happen" for the 360 and PS3

    Don't port this game, Mr. Spector. The Wii deserves good, exclusives that aren't always made by Nintendo. I think this game will be good, though I don't plan on getting it immediately upon release. Too many games on my list to add another to my list. Sorry.

    BioWare Says the PC is "Made For Games"

    But to what end? How does an endless supply of criticism and pointless railing against other companies get us any closer to progressing as a species? And what is the appeal? The anonymity? The frustration? They're just video game platforms, for christ sake.

    Happy 19th Birthday, Sonic the Hedgehog

    Happy Birthday, you lovable collection of specifically arranged pixels! Don't let the asses in this forum discourage you, Sonic Rush was awesome, as was Rush Adventure! And Adventure was released in 2007! You've come out with good stuff in the last couple of years, so it's cool.

    Portal is FREE on Steam!

    Right away, old chap! We just need to wait for the Linux release in a couple months (they announced it, don't tell me they didn't), and we'll probably end up getting GMod for free or something awesome like that.

    Valve Announces Steam and Source for Mac

    It depends on whether your Macbook has an Intel Processor or a PowerPC. Steam for Mac only works with Intel. If your mac was bought within the last 3 or so years, you should be fine.
