10 most important video games of all time, as judged by 2 designers, 2 academics, and 1 lowly blogger

Mar 12th 2007 3:47PM (Joystiq)
Actually Wolf3D redefined the genre and is the cause for all the shooters we have today. And Wolf3D was a great game to boot, so the Vikings and North America argument doenst work

Genji has "tired gameplay" says first IGN PS3 review

Nov 8th 2006 2:05PM (Joystiq)
That paragraph makes it sound like Genji is the best of all games on the PS3 and they are dissapointed that its not the epittamy of Next Gen. How can you feel cheated out of Next Gen when there are soon to be 100's of games coming out that are sure to be better? As a professional writer for gaming you should know that the first generation of games on a brand new console arent going to demonstrate the full power of the system. Once again IGN fails to help the consumer in any way.

PS3 pre-orders open tomorrow at EB Gamestop

Oct 10th 2006 1:04PM (Joystiq)
I got mine today. I went to a few different stores before I scored mine. I dont think EB/GS will have problems because most of them wouldnt accept over 4 preorders per store! I happened to visit a very high traffic store so they were allocated 16 of them, me being 13th. Even if I have to wait a few weeks after launch thats fine, it will still be sooner than the majority of people and I plan on camping out at Best Buy on launch too...

Engadget's Cleaning Out Our Closet Contest

Aug 16th 2006 2:18PM (Engadget)
#7 Philips Norelco 7240XL
My face is ultra sensitive to manual razors and I get wicked shaving rash. I have to go unshaven for a week so the hair is soft enough to shave without samurai swording the underlying flesh. The bad part is I look like the wolf man after a few days and my wife wont come near me until I am clean shaven. Not only will this save my face from undue abuse, but will SAVE MY MARRIAGE!! Well maybe not but at least I wont look like an idiot with small pieces of toilet paper stuck to my face all the time.

Extended warranties - Are they worth it?

Aug 7th 2006 11:21AM (Engadget HD)
I almost never buy a warranty. The two exceptions I have made were only launch day of the Playstation 2, which I used 6 months later and got a new one, so it turned out to be worth it. And the second was on my newly purchased Maxent 42" Plasma TV. There was a price mistake online from where I bought the item, so the instore retailer matched the price mistake and I only paid $159.99 instead of $299.00. I figured its an off brand TV, eventhough it uses LG parts, I am getting a good price on the warranty, and who knows what the longetivity is on this brand... So 90% of the time dont buy, unless its a brand new technology, Playstation 3, or its a pricey peice of equipment thats reliabilty may be questionable.
