Do You Travel With Your Video Game Console?

Packing for a recent trip to visit my family, my sister begged me to bring Singstar (we're a big karaoke family). I explained that if I brought the game, I'd have to bring the PS3 console, and I bet you can guess what she said. Sadly, with wanting to be a light traveler (and not wanting to pay to check bags), I have to say sorry, I can't bring it with. The size of the PS3 makes it a bulky Read more

Nintendo Stocking Shelves With Wii's and DS' This Holiday

Were you one of the many frustrated shoppers last year who waited in line for hours (or days — you know who you are) to get your hands on a Nintendo Wii, only to be crushed with disappointment when you found out they were sold out? Fear not my gaming friends. This year, Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime hopes there will be plenty of Wii and DS systems to go around this holiday Read more

The Armies Face Off For the Video Game Console Wars!

Watch this video to see the three sides represented — all the classic players are there, like Mario and Link, but my favorite is Bill Gates with a massive weapon in his hand. Read more

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt Leave Facebreaker Release Party with Two Xbox 360s

When I spotted Heidi and Spencer coming out of their Facebreaker release party with two Xbox 360s — ostensibly, one for each of them — I scoffed, "Do Heidi and Spencer really need two Xboxes?! Really?!" (You remember Facebreaker, the game where they knock each other out. Real healthy for the relationship). Of course, I feel semi-hypocritical, since I actually have three consoles at home — Read more

Will You Buy an Upgraded PSP 3000?

PSP 3000 Coming to Europe Markets in October

I'm a fan of the PSP. It's got some amazing graphic capabilities, and since one of my favorite games is on the PSP, it's totally handy to have with me when I travel. But if I'm being honest, the PSP does have its drawbacks; most notably being the screen glare! I love that I can watch movies more comfortably than I could with my iPod, but contorting the console to get the best angle while on the Read more

Are You Loyal to Video Game Console Makers?

It started with the Atari. It took a few tries to get my little hands and thumbs acquainted with the controller, but once I got a taste of Pong, it was all over. The original NES, Gameboys, Super NES, Sega, Playstation, the DS, the Wii — I've plugged an impressive array of consoles into my TV (or slipped the portables into my bag). Even though I don't feel that I have brand loyalty to any Read more

Wii Shortage Expected to Continue

Don't hate me, but I've had my Wii since they first hit the shelves back in 2006. I know, I know, some people are still scouring through weekly Target ads, obsessively clicking refresh on Amazon, and getting up at the crack of dawn to wait outside a game store just on the off chance they might get one in stock. I understand your pain and I'm not here to brag, just to ask the question on Read more

Do You Prefer Portable or Console Systems?

Do You Prefer Portable or Console Systems?

I've always thought of portable gaming systems like the Nintendo DS or Sony PSP as substitutes for the real thing. Don't get me wrong, I always slip my DS into my purse when I know I am going to have to wait for a plane, train or automobile, but it's just not as engaging and exciting as playing the game on a console like the Wii or Xbox. It's the big sound. It's the vibration. It's the big Read more
