UK game retailer claims 7,500 souls with a legal agreement prank
Don't think about it, just answer: Do you really read all of those agreements and legal texts that you need to scroll through when installing a game, signing up for a service or buying something online? Really? 7,500 people either don't, or they don't care about their eternal salvation, because UK ...
Retro XBLA games must be repurchased for the Xbox Game Room

Rumor: Warner Bros. wants Codemasters
It appears that Codemasters could become a paid-for adopted sibling in the Warner Bros. Interactive family, if a VG247 article is to be believed.

Wii Warm Up: Worn around the edges
How do you feel about buying used games?

Wii Warm Up: By the numbers
After some of the responses to yesterday's morning question, we thought it might be time to revisit something we've asked before: how many Wii games have you purchased? If you include renting and borrowing, how many have you played? Of course, this leads us to also ask ... how many "big" games ...
DS Daily: Raw numbers
As the end of the year approaches, it's time to take stock. How many games do you think you bought this year?

DS Daily: The next and the last
We always love to keep track of what you're playing -- that's why we ask you every week.
