*Dons Cloak*
So... I've changed my icon, a cookie to whoever recognizes it first, in any case I'm tempted to open up my old website again. It's been years since I've had a gaming related site. At the time it... Testing 1...2...3...
Hooray! Subrosian remained an untaken Gamertag until today, when I proudly claimed it as my own. Wiiondering
Bah there are so many little things that are starting to bother me about the Xbox 360: -Achievements -Cheesy Storylines / Dialogue -Cost of Xbox Live -Microtransactions -Too... Purchase Date Set?
*sigh* we'll it's really just a waiting game now - I turned in my time sheet at work today, I'll have *more* than enough cash sitting around as of next Friday to pick up either a 360 or a Wii - now... Parable of the PS3
Have you not heard of that madman who lit a lantern in the bright morning hours, ran to the market place, and cried incessantly: "I seek the PS3! I seek the PS3!"---As many of those who did not... Ramblings about Portrait of Ruin
I finally beat Death (first battle) on Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin. His 4444 hit points had been giving my level 34 some trouble, so I went on Wifi Shop Mode and got some Berserker armor. Having... Coding Drivers
Coding your own display drivers will teach you more about how computers actually work than a master's degree in computer science. Of course you already knew that...  There is a certain degree of... I Love My HDTV
Ah... I'm really starting to love my monitor... there's just something wonderful about working / gaming on a 27" screen... and widescreen is absolutely an addictive way to live... I don't think I... HDTV's are Great
Mmm... So I finally took the plunge and bought a 27" 720p LCD HDTV and I have to say - the difference is *amazing*. Even compared to a high-end CRT the size difference between a 17" 4:3 image... Release Dates
Nintendo needs to get their act together and get some definite release dates for some of their big franchises. I'm interested in purchasing a Wii - absolutely - but I want to know that there will... Responding to the Moronic Masses
It’s important to note that 1080i is not 1080p when it comes to television sets - I think this is an area many people get confused. Early CRT HDTVs are not giving you a 1920×540 (1080i)... Haters are Right
19" is too small for a widescreen monitor - in fact I'm having my doubts that the 26" size will really "satisfy" but for $400 I probably can't go too far wrong. Sometime in that far distant world... New Years Goals

Ah money... the constant daemon that haunts us the minute we embrace any sort of materialism. In any case - I possess Gears of War at the meager sum of $40. It's strange - but were the price simply... Responding to EGM
After reading EGM's review of the "PS3 vs Wii" I have to say - they almost had me excited enough to run out and buy one. Maybe it was holding the Classic Gaming Controller in my hands at work and... Quoting Myself
It's called marketing - and when you buy into it, believe what they say, and spread their company message, showing "loyalty" to what is at heart the product of a business you become a sheep. No... Why History Won't Repeat Itself
Sony sold most of its consoles and won the current generation *after* the price dropped to $199 and units were widely available. Many of their sales in less industrialized countries were where a... Demonstrating My Judo Grip on the English Language
The PS3 is like a tuba, big, powerful, expensive, heavy, made of metal, protected by a plastic case, and filled with chips. (tuba players are notorious for being snackers who get food in their... Screwing Consumers is Fun
If you're going to respond, please read the whole thing and comment intelligently, this is a rant about the industry as a whole, and not about any individual company per-se, as they are all... Wii VGA Output
No one seems to know if the Wii will support VGA output. This is certainly putting a brick in the works, so to speak, as far as picking a new panel. Spending an extra $400 for component video...
