    This isn't going to help your reputation, Verge...

    I haven't given them many clicks since Joshua Topolsky left but this one cracked me up. The Verge prove themselves again to be completely useless as a tech information source by previewing the current Android Photos app thinking it's the upcoming Google Photos app. A full writeup and video...

    Square-Enix: You jailbreak = You're pirating.

    http://www.theverge.com/2013/7/12/4517022/square-enix-deus-ex-the-fall-jailbreak-game While I acknowledge there's a significant correlation between jailbreaking and piracy, this sucks bigtime for those who jailbroke their iDevices to do things like install settings toggles and who have never...

    Did someone say "cloud" and "streaming"?

    This would explain why Netflix failed to load on my 360 earlier... http://www.theverge.com/2012/6/30/3127502/a-bad-night-netflix-and-instagram-go-down Sounds like an issue with Amazon's EC2 system has put Netflix and Instagram (among others) out of commission. To those saying, "but who...

    Google buys Palm for zero billion dollars.

    Title shamelessly ripped from one of the comments in the Verge's article. http://www.theverge.com/2012/5/24/3042441/hp-enyo-google I wonder if the Enyo team got wind that they were among the 27,000 HP employees to be downsized. This is all speculation on my part but it wouldn't surprise...

    Yamaha RX-V667 Home Theater Receiver $299.99 at Best Buy (YMMV?)

    I finally decided to upgrade my HDMI-less Panasonic SA-XR55 and decided on the Yamaha RX-V667 which seems to provide a lot of bang for the buck. I felt the need for instant gratification so I was prepared to pay $409.99 for it at Best Buy today. Much to my surprise, a brand new unit rang up...

    EA announces new SSX game. SSX fans vomit.

    Trailer here: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/vga-10-ssx-deadly/708356 What focus group idiots told EA that SSX needed to be dark and gritty, looking like something out of Medal of Honor? That person should be brought out back and shot in the balls if the actual game removes the cool...

    HP CEO: "We didn't buy Palm to be in the smartphone business"

    http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/02/hp-ceo-we-didnt-buy-palm-to-be-in-the-smartphone-business/ I'm REALLY hoping this is just a misquote out of context or a CEO not expressing himself clearly, but considering how quiet HP and Palm have been since the merger I can't say I'm too surprised if HP...

    Begun the Infinity Ward purge has...

    I have to admit to thinking this was some sort of publicity stunt to steer attention away from the new Battlefield game coming out this week, but looks like some heads are really rolling at Infinity Ward: http://www.joystiq.com/2010/03/02/rumor-activision-ousts-infinity-ward-higher-ups/...

    PS3 Linger in Shadows...um, what?

    Being a fan of weird, out-there video games, I had to download this one from the PSN Store for $3. Even after reading the introduction and trying it, I'm STILL not sure what this game's about, although I earned four trophies in the process. :D From what I've seen so far (which admittedly is...

    Kingdom of Heaven: Director's Cut

    I watched this movie over the weekend and was surprised to find that it was actually a really good film! Who knew nancy boy Orlando Bloom (aka. Legolas or Jack Sparrow's sidekick) could carry a movie?! Some good character work (which was apparently chopped to pieces in the theatrical cut)...
