Console Musings
Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008I just trawled through my Gamefly queue, looking at upcoming releases and massaging my queue (i.e. moving all the DS games to the top in anticipation of GDC) and I thought I’d take a quick nose count of games I’m interested in checking out during the first half of the year, seeing which of my [...]

Opoona

Wii News
Friday, January 26th, 2007The Wii News channel is live as of this morning and after a brief download, I got the opportunity to give it a quick once over. The interface is nowhere near as convenient as an RSS reader, but it’s a fun toy. You can select a type of news you’re interested in from listings such [...]
