Dear Core: Wait 2-3 years (Love, Nintendo) {Joystiq}
Aug 26th 2008 8:19PM Has everyone forgotten that Nintendo has a 5 or so year life cycle for consoles?
1991 - SNES
1996 - N64
2001 - Gamecube
2006 - Wii
2011 - ????
Maybe I didn't get the memo and this has changed, but 2-3 years sounds like 2010-2011 launch time for their next console. I can't imagine they are going to release big first party games toward the end of the cycle for their console... unless of course they do what I'm afraid they will do and just ride the Wii train for as long as they can before going the way of Sega.
The editor-in-chief giveaway: Win Ryan Block's video games {Engadget}

Blizzard's splash screen changes for June 27th: A "Lost" penguin and Death Knight imagery {WoW}
Jun 27th 2008 9:11PM This is so disappointing to me... Diablo 3 would have been the biggest announcement they could have made... why they are playing up Wrath so much is beyond me. It is obviously wrath they are pointing to in the splash screen, obviously with the eyes and how they are coming out to look like arthas, but no one has mentioned the similarity of the ice... just look at the bottom of the following page... the ice/rock is drawn in the exact same way.

Of course... they could announce D3 as well... the buzz they have generated, plus the double meaning of a bunch of the stuff in the splash screen...
Blizzard marketing has my vote for MVP of the year.
NCIS: Judgment Day (season finale) - VIDEO {TV Squad}
May 21st 2008 11:38PM Yea, if the team is broken up, I will likely never watch it again, at least I won't go out of my way to watch it. Ziva, Tony, McGee, Abby, Ducky, and Palmer are what make this show so great. Gibbs is a given (he is obviously back next season without question), but the dynamic between all the characters is what makes this show so great. Sure they could get new characters and create a new dynamic, but I'm not going to waste my time on getting "emotionally involved" with a completely new cast for the main investigative team. The whole Tony/Ziva plot thread still has a lot of exploration to go through... they will be back... unless the actors decided they don't want to do it anymore of course.
I really doubt this will happen, but it still has to be said.
Oh and Ziva... Cote de Pablo... is always amazing.

Mar 26th 2008 7:37PM Dammit, I had this idea a few months ago, not a dog tag looking piece but the same concept. Oh well. I went out and bought it today though and I love it.
Mega64 goes Jonze for Harmonix game regulars: Freezepop {Joystiq}
Mar 8th 2008 2:59PM I can't decide whether the song is the worst part of this video, or if the video itself is the worst part of this video.
Poll: Are you buying an iPhone after today's announcements? {Engadget}
Mar 6th 2008 8:21PM People seem to think its not relevant these days and that its a dead technology, but I am still waiting for MMS. At this rate though, we will have 16GB SDHC cards before apple does it, and if that happened who needs it, I'll stick with WinMo.
