What else is there to say? This game is a lotta fun. I still haven't figured out when I can activate the nitrous exactly, but when it happens it feels like my real world ride hitting its 6,500 to 7,500 RPM power band (well not quite). I managed to dust a CNET News.com reporter all night....

The TV show Law & Order is known not just for its opening cadence as referenced above, but also for its "ripped-from-the-headlines" plots. Last Friday the show drew from one of the biggest news stories in tech: The HP corporate spying scandal. Of course, instead of HP, the offending company accused of spying on employees and journalists was a law firm called HW. Totally different, though the corporate logo was similar to the lowercase-letter ...

Overpriced PS3? No, thanks. Wii Jazzersize? Ditto no. Xbox 360 fresh out ...
I finally broke down. It's raining, and I need something to do (my wife actually bought that excuse).
Plus, I got tired of going to Best Buy and seeing mountains of Xboxes taunting me. Is there really a choice between these consoles? I mean, the PS3 can't even be found. Besides, who's got the wad for a PS3 or the patience to locate one? Plus, Sony's blu-ray? Whatever.

It looks like Blizzard's crackerjack marketing squad is pulling a page from the Microsoft/Bungie/Halo 3 PR playbook. According to WorldofWarcraft.com, the Spike TV Video Game Awards (set to air Wed 12/13) will feature a hefty three-minute cinematic preview for the delayed upcoming WoW expansion The Burning Crusade. Blizz continues to maintain a BC street date of January 16, '07. Keep in mind this isn't the first time WoW will be on TV....

Tel Aviv-based video-sharing site Metacafe may be sold for around $200 million, reports TechCrunch. When Metacafe received $15 million VC funding in July, CEO Arik Czerniak told Red Herring that he’s “trying to build a world-class company, not a company for sale.” If insider reports prove true, perhaps the reported $200 million offering is high enough to alter Mr. Czerniak’s summer sentiment. So who’s the big spender? There’s speculation that Yah...

That was quick. Fresh from receiving a $20 million in its latest round of venture funding, file-sharing firm BitTorrent turned around and snapped up one of its competitors. It's not really a company that BitTorrent bought, rather an application with a substantial userbase. The application, µTorrent, is a lightweight implementation of the BitTorrent protocol developed by Swedish programmer Ludvig Strigeus. Financial terms of the deal were not di...

It comes as no surprise that the girls vying for the title of “America’s Next Top Model” on the hit CW show are teeny tiny, but it’s a shocker they fit in the latest Motorola Razr.
 Okay, so the girls aren’t actually squeezing their twig-like physiques into mobile phones. Instead, CBS Corp. will be shrinking the models down to byte-size in an interactive cellphone game based on the popular reality TV show, reports The Wall Street Journal. The game...
