I always thought it was pretty ridiculous to offer a digital service such as Netflix movie streaming, but shackling it to an antiquated piece of technology — the DVD. But that’s exactly what happened for the big 3 gaming consoles from the onset. The Wii is already making strides to rid itself of the Netflix disc requirement. And now thankfully, the PS3 is too! Starting this coming monday, PS3 owners can kick back, relax, and fire up Netflix on their PS3 via a...
Rumors of a PSP 2 (a real PSP 2, not this PSP Go BS) have been raging on and off for several years. And here were are several years later looking at the same old units. To be fair, the PSP is still a powerful portable gaming machine. For someone such as myself who prefers graphics to often gimmicky social, motion activated, or *insert fad here* tactics, true eye candy and graphical prowess are what take my cake.

With that said though, they don’t have to because the company behind Mortal Kombat did. At PAX2010, Executive Producer Shaun...
Well, it was done, finally, the only device that has taken years to hack, the PlayStation 3. This beast was finally jailbroken a couple days ago and the company that was developing them couldn’t keep the orders filled.
