Electron Boy Is Our Hero

Tuesday, 04 May 2010
When I read Erik Martin's story this morning I started to cry a little. I don't know why but I just did. Erik lives in the Seattle area and he's 13 years old.

Had I begotten a boy-child, I would take these home and use them to curry favor with same. But as things stand I have a [...] Posted originally: 05/03/2010 Write comment (2 Comments)

It's-A Him (Again!): Hands-On with Super Mario Galaxy 2

Tuesday, 04 May 2010

I kinda have a love/hate thing going on with my Wii. You see the worst kind of shovelware and craptastic mini-game collections proliferating on Nintendo's uber-successful console. Worse yet, the company's success with the Wii can be seen as reinforcing a cautious conservatism with their approach to hardware and first-party development. You can see hints [...]
