    Ubisoft Leak Reveals Wii U Release Date in November

    amuffinI find a problem here, especially during gaming. Your eyes create a depth of field when you focus on one object, in this case the WII U but blur out the surrounding objects in this case the TV. Basically we're going to have to look back in fourth between the tv and wii u! I don't know...

    Opinion: 5 Letdowns of the New iPad - Is It Good Enough?

    I still find it remarkable that as much as people were deriding the first iPad (including comparisons of the name to special women's products), we're now on the 3rd generation of this device after the previous 2 iterations have shipped an estimated 25 million units. Apple must be doing...

    captaincharismait wouldn't succeed because it does not have an apple logo on it an cost an insane amount of money. Uh, ok buddy... It wouldn't succeed since the US is a society that is content-hungry and this thing couldn't possibly deliver and meet the expectations of an average US consumer.

    200,000 U.S. BitTorrent Users Sued

    KamabPiracy isn't theft. This is a well established point in court, and you are implying people should face criminal charges for piracy, which isn't what the RIAA lobbies for.

    200,000 U.S. BitTorrent Users Sued

    Instead of complaining about the actions/reactions of these groups, how about we avoid the situation completely? Stop pirating digital information, and stop defending those who do so. Wrong is wrong, no matter what the justification. Digital theft is still theft. :-\

    Nintendo Officially Slashes the Price of the Wii

    Tsk tsk, some of you are just glossing over the fact that Nintendo outsold Sony and Microsoft year after year for a good reason. Is it because they had the best games or graphics? No, they just happened to design and sell a desirable product that had lots of appeal to a wider crosssection of...

    Woman Must Pay $1.5 Million for Sharing MP3s

    Or...you could actually pay money for original content created by others... $.99/song is not too much too much to ask if you truly enjoy what you are getting and if you listen to it 100 times in your life, it's been a pretty worthwhile investment....
