Portion control in a bad way.
Reports have begun to surface (read: erupt) that the latest GPS update for the Garmin nüvi 7×5 series of GPS navigation devices is bricking the units. Many users report having plugged in their GPS to their computers to receive a mysterious “GPS Chipset Type M” update, which seemed to do nothing. Then, days later (nearly all of them yesterday, June 22, 2009), their units prompted them to perfo...[Read More]
Here comes the Boom.
These are around an hour late as we had our radios tuned to 141.85. Stupid.
Nintendo Download Mario Calculates the Time Needed to Catch Toasted Rainbows in Space Nintendo’s downloadable content this week features the first-ever kitchen appliance with martial arts training.

The game forces you to watch both the top and bottom DS screens, each of which features a slightly-different v...[Read More]
CEO of Twisted Pixel Games Mike Wilford was nice enough to let us play the heck out of his E3 demo of their newest platformer, Splosion Man, while he narrated and guided us through the entire experience. And while our impressions speak for themselves, this video ought to be proof that we aren’t kidding. There are two separate videos here; one’s the single-player stuff and the other is...[Read More]
