    Anonymous Tackles Virgin Media Over Pirate Bay Blocking

    Yeah, piracy is illegal, but indexing torrents is not. That is the point of this. The pirate bay is essentially just a search engine, nothing they host is illegal, what people put up is illegal. The point is that if we block the pirate bay, whats to stop google or youtube being blocked because...

    Rumor: Wii U CPU Twice as Beefy As Xbox 360

    You cant reference CPU in the title, but then not talk about it during the article. Did this developer say the CPU or Wii U was 2 times as powerful?

    Both iphone and android should be given credit for their fair share of innovation over the years. Remember there was a time when Android was playing catch up too in terms of features.

    Nintendo Sued Over Wii Motion Controls

    Wouldnt that be in conflict to the whole idea of filing a patent in the first place? There have been many cases where patented ideas have been used unbeknownst by the patentee by rival groups for years before being found out. Granted, this whole thing seems very fishy... I mean, its not like...

    Rumor: Cheap Components Hurting Wii U Development

    this used to be the way forward, but not so much anymore. Microsoft and Sony are able to offset some of the costs of console development early one due to having such a diversified business structure; their console department could take an initial hit financially in the short term and be covered...

    Is it just me or is a big deal being made out of this? I mean, yeah, she is 10, but specific flaw had been common in time trial software etc for years. If your time trial on something was up you would just wind back the clock and voila, its working again. My 12 year old brother got this...

    E3: Wii U Lineup Impresses

    I dont get it. So how many of these controller things are we meant to buy? Cos im sure they would be expensive if they have a 6inch screen on them... and yes, i know that you can use pretty much every nintendo controller ever made on it, but what about games which are designed with the Wiiu...

    Apple Patents Anti-Piracy Technology

    because they patented the idea doesnt necessarily mean it is going to be implemented.... Companies patent ideas all the time and never use them! I would very much doubt we would see a system like this implemented, not anytime soon at least.
