Rumor: Assassin's Creed coming to the DS?

Apr 9th 2007 8:29PM (Joystiq Nintendo)
I wouldn't mind having a portable version of Assassin's Creed, depending of course on what the portable version is like.

Engadget's Cleaning Out Our Closet Contest

Aug 16th 2006 11:29PM (Engadget)
On the off chance that you're willing to include Canadians in this little giveaway (I mean, we are right next door, you know, making us kinda like the 51st state), I'd like number 14: pzizz.

I work a graveyard shift and getting decent sleep is a challenge for me. I keep waking up and as a result am always dreadfully tired. A sleep aid like the pzizz would benefit me greatly. My family would thank you immensely, because they have to bear the brunt of my sleep-deprived crankiness.

HP wants to be more like Apple

Jul 25th 2006 9:41PM (TUAW.com)
I bought a slimline HP Media Center PC just the other day, and it rocks. It had all the features I was looking for, at the price I was looking to pay, and it was pretty nice-looking too. When I started using it, everything ran so smoothly that I thought to myself: "This feels like a Mac", especially once I plugged in my HP printer and it just worked without having to install any drivers.

Then XP froze, and the illusion was shattered.

I still like the system, though.

Cinematical's SmartGossip for July 24, 2006

Jul 24th 2006 9:26PM (Cinematical)
"Hey Kevin, let us know when you've finished, Jay and Silent Bob Return Again Because I've Run Out of Ideas -- we're all dying to see it." Lol. Burn! I have no problems with Kevin Smith, but I like a good dis when I read it.

I think Mr. Smith's problem is his fan base, though. While watching Clerks II, I couldn't help but think that he was using Dante as a mouthpiece to express his own personal desire to grow up and do something different. Of course, he did TRY to do something different -- it was called Jersey Girl -- and see where it landed him?

Some next gen Star Wars love

Jul 23rd 2006 5:21PM (Joystiq)
My pulse must not be working, because that didn't get me excited at all. Seemed very tame and pedestrian, nothing to get excited over. The last part with the TIE Fighter being destroyed was cool, but does anyone seriously expect to be able to do that as part of the regular gameplay in the next Star Wars game?

Eric Bana Would Like a Hulk Sequel

Jul 16th 2006 7:47PM (Cinematical)
I hated the Hulk movie, and that's saying a lot because I like some pretty bad movies.

I would recommend they get some unknown newbie to play banner, someone who's skinny and nerdy looking. I'd say Tobey Maguire would be perfect, but that would just be silly.

Buying Tickets Online: Why Not?

Jul 13th 2006 3:58PM (Cinematical)
I think that anything more than eight or nine bucks (Canadian) for a movie ticket is too much, but that might be because I'm just used to paying that. I remember when tickets here were close to fifteen dollars; nobody went to the movies and prices eventually dropped again.

As for buying tickets online, I've never felt the need to, and I think most movie-goers feel the same. Movie tickets just aren't as valuable as concert or special event tickets. Whereas getting a concert ticket is pretty inconvenient, thereby justifying the additional charge, getting a movie ticket is incredibly easy. Unless the prices are less than what you'd pay at the theatre, there's no real point to buying online.

Joy of Tech with marketing advise for Microsoft's 'iPod Killer'

Jul 12th 2006 1:39PM (TUAW.com)
I wanted to post something relevant, but such blatant and improper use of the word "advise" really begs to be pointed out. "Advise" is a verb, I think you're looking to use the noun "advice". Get a dictionary, ya bum ;)

Epic's Mark Rein: Intel is killing PC Gaming

Jul 12th 2006 11:00AM (Joystiq)
PC gaming was dying long before Intel started integrating GPUs into their chipsets. The only reason for it is consumer buying preferences. Consumers are very price sensitive, and very convenience-oriented -- i.e. we want "cheap" and "easy".

We want cheap computers, and we don't want to go through the hassle of maintaining and upgrading them. The result? We buy the systems with integrated everything, and we are happy with them. Sure, they don't play the latest high-end titles, but we really don't care about that. Games aren't that important to our lives, and if they are, we'll buy the console systems in order to play them, because the consoles are the "cheap" and "easy" solution for gaming. That's just the market reality.

If Mark Rein and his compatriots want to expand the PC gaming market, maybe he should try developing games that work with consumer preferences. That's the tactic most other industries use. You provide us consumers with what we want, you don't whine because we won't buy the things you think we should.
