What Goes Up, Can't Go Down
Or: Why the Microsoft Kinect and the Playstation Move are doomed to fail* Update 1: I’ve realized I needed to make the definition of what ‘fail’ meant more explicit. In this case, ‘fail’ refers to catering to the non-gamer market.

Weekend Note: YaAaaaaaAAawn
Sleep, the true breakfast of champignons. I pretty much disappeared this weekend, I know, but I was also pretty busy/tired/lazy. I pumped out posts last week like a freaking psycho. I apologize for this weekend, though, but I will also

3DS At A Glance, Commentary
That, right there, is the fabled 3DS, folks. Looks like a glorified DS, doesn’t it? Well, it’s design isn’t final–hopefully they can do more to set itself apart from the DS. Otherwise, a common consumer might look at this and

Star Wars: The Old Republic Trailer Melts Brains

It’s been less than half an hour since the Microsoft Press Conference and I’ve gotta say, I barely watched any of it. Instead, I cleaned up the place, as the previous weekend had amalgamated a pile of video game cases,
