I later found that Skate 2 kept me entertained, but at times it would make me oh-so-frustrated.
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 game is playable with any compatible music instrument controller, and players who have Rock Band can import their tracks into this game.

Top Spin 3 Makes Its Worldwide Launch Today
I swear, when it comes to gaming, anything related to sports is always an instant hit — well, that and anything with the word Mario in its title, naturally. Last week we met up with Anthony DeLuca of 2K sports, and a producer of the new tennis game Top Spin 3, which goes on sale today. If you've ever played Wii Tennis, Top Spin 3 is comparable, yet it's much more of a visual and realistic gaming experience.
