Why steamos will fail

Why SteamOS Will Fail

Valve has recently made three announced that will shake up PC gaming, for what the  company assumes is the better. I disagree. SteamOS sounds great at first: your whole Steam collection in console form that can easily be usable while on the couch in the living room, why not!? SteamOS Well, unfortunately, that’s hardly the…

Tales of an Average Online Gamer 3: Online Vs Old-Skool Multiplayer?

It’s probably not that much of a spoiler at this point to say that I like online multiplayer. I may only be average at online gaming (you guessed that from the title, right?) but I still enjoy it nonetheless, even when it’s at it’s most headbangingly annoying. Which is quite a lot of the time…

Last week we talked about the Amazon deal to let Xbox 360 game owners trade in select titles in order to upgrade them to their Xbox One counterparts for only $10. Sony apparently saw the deal as a good idea and thought, “Hey, let’s do that but better.” If Playstation 3 owners didn’t have enough…

Xbox One and Second Hand Games: What’s The Big Deal?

E3 is only one week away and that means one thing: More PS4 and Xbox One details. Or at least, one would hope that more details are on the way. But judging by Microsoft’s contradictory statements and Sony’s radio silence, it’s truly difficult to predict whether we’ll learn more about the consoles themselves or if…

The wii u is not a failure

The Wii U is Not a Failure

The Wii U is Down, But Not Out These are dark days for gamers and the game industry. Unscrupulous publishers take advantage of paying customers, developers cower in fear of innovation, and Nintendo’s mighty Wii U hasn’t sold as much as predicted. Last month fellow Geek Insider writer Mohseen Lala looked at the facts and…

Geeks Anonymous: Galaxy Note 8.0 & PS4 Gaming

Welcome back to Geeks Anonymous: The recap of the week. Remember to tweet your topics and comments to @GeekMagazines on twitter with the hashtag #GeeksAnonymous.

Pulling the Plug: Sony to Stop PS2 Production and Shipment

With rumors of a new console, the PS4, brewing, Sony has announced, much to the dismay of gamers everywhere, that they are halting production of their long-running PlayStation 2 console.
