Sony & Netflix drops the ball.  PS3 Netflix discs needed until late next year… [Update]

Several weeks back it was announced that the Sony PS3 would be gaining Netflix support albeit with one HUGE crutch being that you would need to load a physical disc into the PS3 — Every. Single. Time. Not a very well thought out plan at all. Ok, so we figured we’d be looking at a couple weeks to a month or two of this half-assed attempt at a fix. Hope you weren’t planning on using your PS3′s disc drive for anything else while loading up Netflix...

Total development costs for Gran Turismo 5 — $60 million

Total development costs for Gran Turismo 5 — $60 million

No, I didn’t misplace a zero. The simulation racing game that has spanned the ages of video gaming time packs a wallop in the latest installment, Gran Turismo 5. $60 million is a lot of money, especially considering it was spent on a single video game.

Geek Squad offering bargain $130 PS3 home setup — *Tip* Don’t Do It

In the age of technology quickly creeping into every aspect of our lives, we sit at a unique dividing line where the older generation is coming to a point where they have to quickly learn technology (as opposed to people born within the last 15-20 years which have more or less “grown up” with modern technology). Because of this learning and generation gap, there are groups of people who “get it” and those who don’t. Technology help groups...

Become a statistic: Play video games. Eat food. Get fat.

Become a statistic: Play video games.  Eat food.  Get fat.

Playing video games, especially extended gaming sessions, can cause a weird yet often experienced phenomenon. The phenomenon in question is the growing hunger that builds inside your gut with each punch, lap, shot, etc. Some have to pause their game, waste precious valuable seconds/minutes walking into the kitchen. Some are lucky to have a mini fridge in close proximity. But the coolest of the cool have a PS3 and are enjoying the new built in Papa Johns on screen...
