Semi-cross post from MechaWorks.com…
We’re taking the wraps off of iConsole.vg ahead of the alpha signup wave that will start on January 20th. Check it out, and let me know what you think!

I’ve seen at least a dozen companies within the past month lock down their Facebook walls.
As if Facebook didn’t need any more issues, after their latest privacy meltdown… here comes something else. In case you were living under a rock, Facebook decided to capitalize on everyone’s profile on search engines. They did so by presenting [...]

I decided to take on the first wave of Full Circle questions, on the AnimeNation forum of all places. I’m not a member there, but the team said they had raised some of the best questions on there… and a few “why do I want another thing like Chrome OS on my computer.”
So, I answered [...]

I probably wouldn’t be penning this post today had Dreamcast not failed. Sega would have gotten the glory they deserved, and the console world would be historically changed.
Alas, it wasn’t meant to be. When Dreamcast failed, I said there has to be a better way. If a great system like that failed, it’s time to [...]

As posted on Twitter, today we remember Dreamcast. Tomorrow, we embark on a new dream. See you all tomorrow.

As I noted earlier in the morning on Twitter, we’re doing an in-town office move Monday. So, I’m up late preparing for a smooth transition tomorrow. Anyways, on to the post…

As I’m wrapping up E3 coverage over on CentralGadget.com, I paused for a moment and asked what was the real winner there.

We’re headed to E3. Full coverage on MechaWorks sites, of course.
But, as the MechaWorks Jobs page has given away… that’s not the only reason that we’ll be there. So, if you’re looking to score a job in the industry (especially if you’re out of work), and you’ll be at E3, head on over there and [...]

I’ve been hounded by emails pretty much non-stop ever since TheStreet.com reported on a potential Apple/Electronic Arts deal.
Apple doesn’t buy companies like EA. Apple buys small to mid-range companies with large amounts of intellectual property. That IP can be tapped and used to make new chips, add multi-touch to iPhone, and all sorts of other [...]

Scarred and tired, Jack Bauer has been infected by a supervirus and must take on a derelict PMC, hellbent on world domination.

Sound familiar? If you’ve played Metal Gear Solid 4, you’ve officially been there and done that. I’ve long talked off-the-blog about 24’s continual ripping off of Metal Gear Solid. People have finally started [...]
