Game News Highlights
This week's top stories, delivered hot and fresh!
Moore: 'Wii will own half of all next gen-sales'
Seeded By - Coxy
- Maybe it's the male-pattern baldness. Maybe it's the beady little eyes. Maybe it's the absolutely ridiculous tattoos. What ever it may be, when Peter Moore talks we all love to post about it. His latest prediction from high atop his EA thrown made out of money is that the Wii will encompass half of all the console sales this generation. Maybe he can get a job with Nintendo.
New 360 Dashboard: "You don't have to use it"
Seeded By - Coxy
- Don't you think the new dashboard interface update is just swell? No... Well, then you must be afraid of change! And like any good internet troll, or neo-conservative, you made those ridiculous complaints loud and obnoxious enough to the world that the party making those changes has to make an attempt to calm you down. Major Nelson stated on his podcast that if you don't want to update to the new dash, it's completely up to you and you don't have to. Phew. The interface almost got scary with it newness.
Shigeru Miyamoto Secretly Working On New Mario Title?
Seeded By - Russ R.
- After the utter failure that was Super Mario Sunshine we all figured Shigeru Miyamoto would close up his creative shop. Then after the tremendous success that was Super Mario Galaxy we all figure he would leave the game while he was on top. That's why we're all shocked, SHOCKED, to hear that Miyamoto-san is working on yet another Mario title. What left can this man do with the character? I know, I for one, and tired of playing Mario games.

Rock Request Line #2: "Welcome to the Black Parade"
Written By - Bryan Carr
- Continuing with the second article in his series on Rock Band song requests, Bryan brings us one that will sure to stir up some controversy. No matter what you think about My Chemical Romance (and my inner music snob has a lot to say about them) Bryan does bring up some convincing arguments as to why you would want to play The Black Parade on Rock Band. I'm sold.
