You can't possibly compare NES games to cellphone games. Just look at the price tag. Average cell game is like $8 i think and average cost of NES games, calculating inflation, maybe $60? Why would you want to compare to the cost of NES games two decades ago when they actually were cutting edge? Sur...

And if your LCD has support for it, the VGA adaptor should give you the absolute best picture (480p), and is compatible with almost every Dreamcast game released.

Before you go and by another cable, in particular one that will give you an inferior image, you should try it on all of the available SCART sockets on your television--typically you will find that only one of them supports RGB video, which the Dreamcast seems to output exclusively when using a SCART...

You're only aiding criminals with that mentality. They will not give a fuck if a gun is prohibited if they are out to rob, rape, or kill you. Yep. We foolishly prohibited guns in the UK, yet handgun-related raping still happens in stores daily. Yea, it sucks. Good thing you don't have off the chart...

In a landmark historic occasion today 11 June 2008 at the court of appeal criminal division the legal argument that modchips do not circumvent copyright protection was upheld by Judge Justice Jacobs. The granting of this appeal based on the argument that the copyright infringement has already taken...

No charges over Scientology demo Legal action has been dropped against a 15-year-old who faced prosecution for branding Scientology a "cult". The teenager held up a sign which read, "Scientology is not a religion, it is a dangerous cult", in May outside its headquarters in the C...

On holiday, I much prefer shower gel. It's impossible to work up a decent lather with soap and their soft water. And you can't flush your toilet paper. Back in Blighty, however, it's no contest--the bar of soap wins hands down. Though I do quite like that shower gel with rough bits in, and the one w...

My only real gripe so far is some of my favourite "extras" like the pizza and taxi missions are now missing. It's only a minor gripe in relation the rest of the game, but they're easily-implementable things that could be played if you liked them or happily ignored if you didn't. I know th...

One more: If I use HDMI, can I still choose to output audio through optical? Yes, and apparently the Elite comes with a small dongle containing optical and analogue audio outputs for this purpose. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/167/437164494_d76f429815.jpg You can also use an ordinary Xbox 360 vide...

I recall being told that he also leaked one of the bleemcast! betas--is that true?

Hand-to-hand combat takes a bit getting used to. 'B' is your standard melee attack. However, hold down the left trigger for targeting and all of the buttons become attacks. 'Y' is a second punch, 'X' is a kick, and 'A' is a block. Bowling and pool are decent minigames and the controls work fine for...

I got myself an Xbox 360 last Tuesday, and hacked the firmware. Within a few hours, the game was leaked, but I remained very hesitant to do anything with it in case I increased my chance of getting banned from Xbox Live, as I've got four friends with 360s who all play online who had been convincing ...

Also theres WiiScrub out which keeps the ISOs the same size but does something with the dummy data to make them compress down much better. There's a lot of unease about that in the Wii scene--it apparently caused problems for certain Gamecube games when it was done there, and is trivial for Nintend...

Wait, when did Mario Kart come out? I didn't even know it was released, well, anywhere. Is it even out in Japan yet? Assuming Hasney's referring to the Wii version, it isn't officially out anywhere yet, but it got leaked onto the internet yesterday. It is due out in Europe in a few days, however. I...

Does this mean we're allowed to take his gun off him now?

Apparently "Pri Laneo" is Chinese for "April One"...

The Chinese company "Pri Laneo" has announced in a press release that they acquired intellectual property licenses to all relevant patents and technologies that are required for creating HD DVD media as well as for HD DVD hardware. HD DVD had been fighting a battle to become the successor...

Thanks for the info guys. After a bit of googling, the general consensus I see is that the divx/xvid playback is pretty good on the PS3. Another question! How much of a difference is there between an upscaled DVD, and a Blu-ray disc? I hear varying opinions on that. Some say there's no difference, ...

I'm seeing "click to enter omfg tl;dr!!!1" at the moment.

yesterday i was playing nester se and i was scrolling through the games rather tediously to get to tetris. when i got to the "e" games all of a sudden the screen went black and then the dreamcast started giving me problems reading games after that. i followed an online tutorial to adjust ...
