A day just after it’s release and StarCraft II has become the fastest-selling game of 2010 to date and one of the fastest-selling PC games of all time. Just how many copies did Blizzard manage to move on day 1 of Starcraft II’s release? VGChartz estimates that Blizzard and Activision managed to sell 1.8 million copies of StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty in just the U.S., Europe and it’s digital download service.
Amazing? Yep, for a PC game that’s downright amazing, especially if you consider Asia still isn’t included in that number, South Korea in particular.

Blizzard made a conscious decision to leave anti-aliasing out of the retail version of their new game, StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty.
But from the screenshots we’re seeing, there’s some instances that the game has Anti Aliasing right? Well it seems that the reason for that is due from the difference between the green (NVIDIA) and red (ATI) camp.

With 5.03 GEN-C and 5.50 GEN-D3 getting their own respective Prometheus (5.50 GEN Prometheus and 5.03 GEN Prometheus) plugins that will allow them to play games that require Sony’s 6.20 OFW and above, can the M33 guys who still stick to Dark Alex’s legacy custom firmware get some love? Apparently yes as Red Squirrel has released a 5.00 M33 Prometheus plugin for all you folks that stick to this stable yet admittedly outdated firmware.
Who was it that said that the M33 firmware is dead?
This release will install on all hackable PSPs that has 5.00 M33 firmware (and it’s subsequent patches up to 5.00 M33-6).
Important: DO NOT attempt to install this on PSP-3000 / PSP-2000 TA088v3. YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PSP IF YOU DO.
Important: If you have firmware above 5.00 (5.03 or 5.50 in example) you need to downgrade your PSP to 5.00 M33.
Requirements:
- A PSP with custom firmware 5.00 M33 installed (preferably 5.00 M33-6). If your firmware version is below this, please update to 5.00 M33.
- PSP battery that’s at least 78% full
- Download: M33_Prometheus.zip
- Disable ALL plugins.
- Back up your save files (so that if they get corrupted, you still have backups)

Ah plushies. They’re the best anime gift you can get a girl (unless she’s interested in Mechas). They’re cute, they’re cuddly and they’re affordable enough. The best part is that you can get a plushie for your favorite anime.

Did I somehow mess up the title? Nope, you’re reading that right. Namco and Capcom will be pooling their resources together to create two games instead of just one: Street Fighter X Tekken and Tekken X Street Fighter. Match made in heaven? Heh. I simply can’t wait to get my hands on this awesome game (or set of games as there’s two of theme )

It’s something probably most gamers would want to see. With millions of players on both sides of the gaming coin, it’s almost a match made in heaven right?

According to Rahul Sood, CTO of HP’s gaming business, the Microsoft project was intended to promote PC gaming but was canned after testing showed those using PCs consistently bested their console counterpart.

It’s a bit early but One Manga has bid farewell to us all. While we still have the week to enjoy scantilations on the site, expect to see that all content to be gone by early next week (RIP OM July 2010) 
. The decision to take down One Manga and it’s scantilation content comes from Manga Publishers who consider it a violation of their copyrights (hence the slinging of DCMA takedowns).
