Tedious (AP)
08/18/2004 03:11 PMAP - Atari could have redefined guns and gas pedal mayhem with the
much anticipated "Driv3r" (pronounced Driver 3), the latest
installment in a series of bad-boy-driving-'n'-violence titles. But
there's nothing new here to see — nothing new graphically,
emotionally, or functionally in the way of game play.

Dance, Voldo, Dance is a music video made by synchronizing the
movements of gladiators from the game Soul Calibur with a dance track,
so that they appear to be getting down with their nasty selves to the
music. It's quite good!

Review
Sony's HMP-A1 VAIO Video Pocket Video
Review
06/16/2004 07:12 AM
Portable Media World (a spanking new sister site to our favorite
French gadget site, Akihabara News) has a review of the HMP-A1, the
second-generation video player from Sony. They're impressed by its
fit-and-finish, but it's clear from the review that Sony has crippled
the device, forcing the user to go through two different programs to
copy audio and video to the unit (and no ATRAC, hilariously), as well
as reencode most video before transferring it over (it supports MPEG
1/2/4 but not MPEG4 derivatives like DivX or XviD, apparently).
Battery life varies wildly depending on how much decoding the HMP-A1
must do, but even when gnawing on the relatively dense MPEG2 files it
manages around a 4 hour playback -- couple of movies worth, which is
decent. Left-handed users get an unfulfilled tease, as the HMP-A1
supports a screen pivot for lefty use, but doesn't switch the
directions of the controls, meaning scrolling down, for instance, will
cause the HMP-A1 to scroll up.
It looks nice, but considering the major market for these units --
we geeks who rip our own DVDs, record TV, and download video
(illegally) -- it's probably better to wait for one of the iRiver or
Archos players that don't do annoying things like hide the directories
on the hard drive.

The Right Wing's 'Noise Machine'
05/11/2004 09:12 AMDavid Brock:
The Mighty Windbags. Today, the most important sectors of the
political media -- most of cable TV news, the majority of popular
op-ed columns, almost all of talk radio, a substantial chunk of the
book market, and many of the most highly trafficked Web sites --
reflect more closely the political and journalistic values of the
Washington Times than those of the New York Times. That is, they are
powerful propaganda organs of the Republican Party. For our politics,
this development in the media represents a structural change: a
structural advantage for the GOP and conservatism, and, I believe, the
greatest structural obstacle facing opponents of the right wing. I
therefore think it is one of the most important political stories of
the era.

04/15/2004 07:38 PM'Alias'
takes on the gaming world: I'm not a big gamer, but this could
temp me to start.
The main character — agile, clever and impossibly beautiful
superspy Sydney Bristow (played by the agile, clever and impossibly
beautiful actress Jennifer Garner) — could easily hold her own
with the gallery from "Mortal Kombat."
Add in the fact that "Alias" and its epic, sometimes shocking
sometimes schmaltzy storylines can be as engrossing as "Metal Gear
Solid," one can convincingly argue that "Alias" is really just a video
game that happens to come on your TV every Sunday night.
Apparently Marshall plays a prominent role. As it should be.

If IKEA was a video game
01/25/2004 12:51 PMTreating spousally mandated IKEA visits as a video-game seems like a
pretty good coping strategy, especially when you've got a walk-through
to crib from. This is a screamingly funny piece from The Morning News.
You start this world armed only with a UNIVERSAL FURNITURE-ASSEMBLY
ALLEN WRENCH. This is the weakest weapon in IKEA: You will have to hit
a person 16 times with it to kill them. So your primary goal in this
level is to find more lethal means of dispatching your enemies.
As you enter the SHOWROOM, perform a rolling dodge to the left. Grab a
free PAPER TAPE MEASURE and a handful of IKEA EMBLAZONED GOLF PENCILS
from the kiosk near the entryway. The PENCILS serve quite well as
ranged weapons, but it will take some time to master their use. Before
venturing further in the world, stand at the kiosk and practice
hurling GOLF PENCILS at patrons as they enter the SHOWROOM. Remember:
Hitting the eyes does triple damage.

12/17/2003 02:29 PMNow that
video
games are becoming more like professional sports it should be no
surprise that a whole bunch of
television
programs involving video gaming are set to hit the tube. There
have been a few such shows that have come on in the last year or so,
but now they're going to be everywhere. It seems to be part of the
battle of TV execs to combat the fact that more and more people are
playing video games rather than watching TV. So, they figure they'll
just throw up some programming that involves video games and hope it
works.

Disagreements About Video Game
Addictions
11/05/2003 02:55 AMWe've seen plenty of stories about psychologists claiming there was a
problem with people being "addicted to video games", but now some
actual research is being done, and one psychologist is saying that
video
games are no more addictive than school or work. That is, unlike
alcohol or drugs, there's no chemical dependency issue - it's a
self-created addiction. However, plenty of video game players
describe themselves as addicted, and that's good enough for many
psychologists - who point out that self-described video game addicts
often end up having "family conflict and romantic failure as a result
of their hobby." Of course, one could claim that the family conflict
or romantic failures made the person retreat more into the video game
- or even that both the problems and the excessive video gaming were
caused by a third factor. However, it's probably just easier for
psychologists to bring in new business by claiming video game
"addiction" causes all the problems.
