    Killer Instinct Classic Ports the Original to Xbox One

    Indeed. A Classic KI would be worth about $2 on download, $5 if you actually liked the game. The mechanics were horrible. I wonder how this one plays. Part of me wants to be nostalgic for the old arcade version, and part of me wants something I can enjoy.

    Kinect and Internet Explorer Come Together on Xbox

    $10 says this will require Xbox Live Gold account. They already charge for multiplayer.. Might as well charge for everything else on the PC that's free.

    Battlefield Dev: Anti-Used Games Tech Isn't "Evil" or "Stupid"

    I know I'll be spending more money on all sorts of new games now that used games have gone away! With all the money I saved by not buying used, I'll have all this money to put in all those developers' coffers. /sarcasm Blizzard probably gets a pass. Valve and Bethesda as well. But if you...

    Mario 64 DS had a minigame that was pretty similar to the angry birds gameplay.. Shell Smash.

    Anti-Gay Email Campaign Floods Electronic Arts

    Sounds like EA just trying to deflect attention away from its winning of the worst company in America award. I have no proof that these emails aren't real, but it seems awfully convenient for them.

    "Girly Vader" Dishes Out Some Force Smackdown

    If Kinect Star wars turns out to be any good I will be extremely surprised (albeit pleasantly). The majority of that game's sales will be on that deliciously collectable Star Wars themed Xbox 360. I mean why else would you charge almost $500 usd for something that is likely to be obsolete in...

    Volition Dev Vs. Pre-Owned Games

    I've never paid more than $5 for a Violition game. And I never will. Saints Row 3? Bargain bin material. Summoner? Ha. Not even worth picking up. But that's secondary. There are unintended consequences to this. What happens when there are no more new copies of a game? All those used copies...

    Buffy's Hubby Joins Mass Effect 3 Cast

    I'm actually against having "big name" voice talent that doesn't significantly add to the story. Why can't we get people who just sound really like them to do it for cheaper? So we can get these game budgets under control, and not have the game industry turn into a depraved spendathon like...

    Mortal Kombat Komplete Lands In March

    I'd pay $30.. it'll probably retail for $40.. I'll wait for a sale.

    Blizzard Has Banked $26 Million From WoW Authenticators

    I wonder how soon will see them for Diablo 3 accounts. "Our shit's not secure at all! Buy this lock!"

    Which of the 12 Days of Christmas Are You?

    I like to think I'm the 13th day of Christmas, aka the Hangover. The walk of shame. The magic is gone, and all that is left is a sober cleanup of puke and eggnog. Red cups and paper plates strewn about as if to say "That party was awesome, but today is gonna suck balls."

    $57 Million Slot Machine Win Blamed on Software Error, Casino Won't Pay

    I think you're thinking of Health Insurance companies, and that nugget was thanks to Obamacare.
