Who says you can't play a shooter with the mouse? Check out this game called NOIZ2.

A friend of mine pointed out this to me today. It's a remix of some of the music from M.C. Kids

I had no idea about this. There's a whole little subculture of remixing old game music. For example there's this group which I guess does both real game music and remixes.

It seems like most people including me missed this at the Tokyo Game Show but someone has created a Gameboy emulator for the DoCoMo 504i series of cell phones.

This DVD, a documentary about massively multiplayer online worlds (like Everquest) sounds pretty interesting. As anybody seen it? I'm scared to watch it though because if it convinces me to play one of them my life might get sucked into one of those games as it has for several of my friends. There's a reason why it's known as EverCRACK.

Like I mentioned before, the net and online gaming are HUGE in Korea. Read this article!!!.

XBox controllers are supposed to really suck. They suck so much infact that this adaptor has come out that lets you use your PS1 and PS2 controllers with your XBox.

You may not know it but Korea is the number #1 networked country in the world or maybe that's the wrong way to put it but they use the net more than anybody else. The average Korean is on the net 18 hours a week and that stat is over a year old.

One minor explaination is that broadband in Korea is only like $20 a month flat. Cheaper than both Japan and the U.S. for example.

But, along with all that net access has come addiction. This article claims as high as 60% of Koreans have some kind of at least mild addiction.

I'm guessing most of you have seen this as I've been like at least a week or two late in posting it but if you haven't you have to check out this video some player of the X−Box game Halo made.

Today I was walking through Kabukichou in Shinjuku with my friend Kyo and I stumbled upon this sign.

Well, if the game Pikmin wasn't a the huge hit Nintendo wanted it to be the song from the Japanese commercial is #2 on the singles chart here in Japan this week.
