I am a huge Bemani (music-rhythm) game freak. Beatmania, DJ Max Portable, Guitar Hero - I eat all those up heartily, not mention am waiting patiently for Rock Band to hit Europe (please hurry up MTV/Harmonix/EA).

With Activision behind Guitar Hero now I understand their need to conquer the world with it, but when they bring […]

This is a review I should’ve written a long time ago, but now that a few things are out of the way I can finally sit down and tell you my thoughts about Burnout Paradise. In fact, the additional time I’ve spent with the game has actually changed a few perspectives I had on […]

When was the last time you backed up? Until Time Machine came along, it was about six months ago. No, I’m not joking.

I’ve only experienced one hard drive failure during my experience with computers. It was a Maxtor (yeah, I know) and I lost about 200GB+ of data which I was very fond of. From […]

It’s a lovely little app I’ve been using ever since I’ve transitioned fully to my MacBook Pro. At first I used the other alternative NetNewsWire but couldn’t get the hang of […]
