Pay for a game? Then pay a monthly fee?

MADNESS!

Zentia celebrates open beta, new website and contests

Lovefest (cont.):

Last weekend they had a Facebook contest where you had to comment on their Facebook post and they would pick five winners to receive a prize. After the contest ended they said they'd just go ahead and give everyone who commented the prize.

And the Facebook contest was while they had two other community contests going on.

Great community support.

Sundance Review: World's Greatest Dad

I am intrigued whether someone can make such a foul subject into a good movie.

After Shakes the Clown I am glad to see Bobcat got another shot at making a movie.

Clever premise, anyhow.

Atari Touch Tablet unboxed 25 years after the fact

Another old-timer Atari 800 (48K!!!) owner here. I, too, chose the Koala Pad for my PC instead of Atari's version.

Ah, 8-bit assembly code...the last time Assembly was easy...

Santa Cruz, CA.

Home of the Lost Boys. And yes, it's always fun to see how the Directors cut up your town for chase scenes.

And one of the Dirty Harry movies...

Archos Generation 5 players cracked

A great little player and it's just nice to know that folks still try to get more on these devices than the manufacturer intends. Some of them could really turn into nice little PDAs.

Research profiles the typical fantasy MMO player

From the survey:

23: How would you rate yourself in terms of physical fitness?

1-- Big fat slob
2-- Not so big, but still a fat slob
3-- Pretty good looking and enormously strong!

24: How healthy are you?

1-- PLEASE CALL 911 I JUST COUGHED SOMETHING UP! IS THAT MY PANCREAS?
2-- I have alot of playing time because I'm always home sick! Win-Win!
3-- I have an amazing constitution and did I mention that I am good looking?

Honestly, aren't most surveys like this purposely skewed in their wording by manufacturers so that any information gleaned from it is not detrimental to sales and/or public relations?

Nintendo explains Wii Fit shortages using familiar language

Anyone who has seen the bulldozing of Atari cartridges understands Nintendo's position.

Just because we KNOW it's a hit now doesn't mean it was a sure-thing to begin with.

Shortages are MUCH easier to explain to stockholders than explaining warehouses full of unsold stock.

Ask Engadget HD: To TiVo, or not to TiVo?

When we got HD I switched form a home-grown SageTV box to DirecTV's DVR. While I miss a few features from SageTV the DVR from DirecTV is good enough where I don't even consider moving to another DVR.
