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?
A supposed feature of Microsoft’s Live gaming service was the ability for Xbox 360 players to compete against PC players in a multiplayer game. 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).

The zergling rush probably the single most defining attack for StarCraft Zerg players. A wikipedia article defines the phrase as:
A Zergling rush is the tactic of attacking an opponent with 6 or more Zergling units as early as permissible. This refers specifically to the strategy where a Zerg player creates a Spawning Pool very early in the game, sacrificing his or her economy to enable creation of Zerglings. Within StarCraft, the strategy is further classified by how early the player attempts to sacrifice economy to execute the rush, for example the four pool rush is the earliest possible Zergling rush. It is called the “four pool rush” (often shortened to 4pool) because the player immediately gathers resources (each player starts out with four worker units) and does not build more workers until the player has enough resources to build a Spawning Pool.
If you’re wondering about the terms used in that quote, you probably need to PLAY StarCraft sometime soon =).

We’ve been there before, with companies claiming a piracy-proof device one day and six months later seeing said device selling like hotcakes due to piracy. It’s a vicious cycle but one that seems to be successfully broken by Sony.
Like it or not, both the PS3 and the PSP Go are STILL piracy-free. The PlayStation 3 can thank it’s BluRay drive and locked down firmware while the PlayStation Portable can thank the PSP-3000 (and past iterations) for the PSP Go.
