Go back to those OLD school days of handheld gaming with this Nintendo DS Water game, filled with candy treats. The handheld Water DS game comes in 3 flavors for $6.95 a piece. From Lik-Sang : "This rendition of an NDS can be filled with water and is then ready to actually be played (no joke!). There are three water-based mini games available, involving characters like Mario, Princess Peach, Bowser, Wario, Luigi and Yoshi! One-of-a-kind, rare toy from Subarudo. Water not included. So, if a "real" Nintendo DS system is beyond your budget, this sure provides a fun alternative."
There's also a DS styled voice recorder that lets you record and playback several minutes of audio for $8.95. So tie yourself over with these until the DS Lite comes to the US in May(?).

Do you play games or do they play you? According to a report and study on ABC Online (Australia), playing video games makes you paranoid and suspicious. The study "shows young men are more likely to think it is acceptable to smoke marijuana and drink alcohol after playing a violent game." What do you think? Yeah, talking to YOU. (Kids like this definitely don't help!) Write Comment (0 Comments) |

The Burnout Revenge Retail Car Downloads were ridden with bugs. EA had a pretty good idea in concept. To distribute exclusive retail cars at Best Buy, Circuit City and Gamestop Xbox 360 kiosks. If you stopped by a store with a Xbox 360 Memory Card, you could plug it in a kiosk to download and later play with the custom car. That's if: #1 the Xbox 360 kiosk worked, #2 if the retail store received/installed the Burnout Revenge update in the kiosk, #3 if there was ever any clear explanation to how the whole thing worked and #4 if when you finally found one, Burnout Revenge recognized it and let you use it. You were lucky to get to part #3, it was impossible to get to #4. Today a patch was released that enabled the cars you downloaded from the kiosk. After installing the update, you will get a message that a new car has been unlocked. The car can then be selected from a multiplayer game. We'll let you know if we see the promotion hitting stores again!

Just don't take away my 360!
Lucent is trying to pull the plug on our gaming and I don’t like it. Well Lucent claims to have the patent on an MPEG2 component that is being used in the Xbox 360. Lucent was nearly dead a few years ago, back when the bubbles were popping, they seem to be trying to get a little press on this MPEG2 case.
