As I’m sure most of you remember, earlier this week the Playstation 3 suffered a little accident. At the time, people were understandably upset. You also might remember that a lot of the 360 fanboys were having a field day, claiming that this incident was the equivalent of the RROD. The internet was an obnoxious place (well, moreso than usual) for most of this week. One guy, a diehard PS3 owner and huge fan of the system, decided to post a relatively rational video on YouTube talking about how upset he was with the situation and how he hoped Sony would fix it soon....

Let’s all hate on the hate train! There was a time in my life where I swore by the Razzies and Razzie nominations. While the Oscars promote some of the best movies of the year, the Razzies are the polar opposite. They talk about the worst movies of a previous year and revel in beating up a popular target. As I grew up though, I stopped caring about the Razzies and which movies got nominated....

The indie-developedFrozen Synapsehas made a big splash since its release earlier in the summer. Our very own Dutch doughnut Maurice Tangave it a 9 in his review, which probably means he really likes it.

Plenty of swords and 2x4s and stop signs and shit, but where are the guitars? We’re giving away the Soundweaver Quickplay Pack forSkyforge, because it’s the only character class awesome enough to use a guitar....

For every person that’s on the rampage about the horrors of videogames, there seems to be another than claims that they have played an essential role in his or her life. Take Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe for example, who mentioned in an interview withThe Daily Beastthat videogames were more than just a leisure activity: “I have a very mild form of (dyspraxia) it. I’ve gotten it mostly under control now....

In the wake of last week’ssharply falling sales, Japanese retailers are apparently slicing the PlayStation Vita’s price in order to stimulate a few more buys. Animage has circulatedof one particular retailer offering the 3G-enabled Vita for¥24,999, a drop of nearly 17% from¥29,980. It’s believed that the 3G model is particularly problematic for Sony. 85% of the Wi-Fi Vitas were reportedly sold at launch, compared to 56% for the 3G. Oddly, it seems people don’t want to pay more for outdated technology that has very limited use on a dedicated gaming handheld....

Although the general public is lapping up Wii’s by the millions, you might not want to hold your breath while waiting for Epic to supply the engine for Nintendo’s rig — you’d likely pass out and die from the wait. As Mark Rein puts it, investing in the Wii just doesn’t seem like a sound financial decision for Epic: “I don’t think there’s a lot of money on making engines for the Wii....
