2009 is over. The decade’s done. And after a slew of games were delayed from this holiday season, now we look ahead to 2010.
But when I was writing this list, I found it hard to narrow it down to just 10 games; there’s a lot of good stuff coming out next year. So I decided to split it the list into two: the tried-and-true franchises …
The Vue Personal Video Network is a $299 wireless video surveillance system that’s easy to install and use. You get a base station that hooks into your router, two small cameras, and four magnetic mounting bases that can be affixed to a wall or ceiling with adhesive, screws, or nails.
If simplicity’s what you’re after, you’ll …
Daniel Suarez is one of those rare novelists who writes like he’s a) living in the same world we are and b) actually paying attention to what’s going on there.
I mean, don’t get me wrong, he writes speculative fiction about a superbrilliant artificial intelligence that’s loose on the Net, killing people and seizing the assets of major …
Forget looking forward to 2010; I’ve already been impressed by a handful of 2010 titles.
We’ve already seen Daybreakers and The Book of Eli – both pretty captivating – and we’ve already moved on to obsessing about Legion. That is, when I’m not renting old-school sci-fi classics for our “Most Underrated Sci-Fi Masterpieces” …
Though the 2010 pilot season won’t be here until August, the new year is upon us, and this means we must look to the future of our prime time entertainment. With the cancellation of Joss Whedon’s FOX series Dollhouse, we’re left (once again) to pick up the pieces of our sci-fi/fantasy TV fandom and look elsewhere.
Here’s what …
In a little over a week I’ll be in Las Vegas for CES. It’s my hope – along with every other tech journo – that the annual trade show will serve as center stage for some groundbreaking announcement by a major (or minor) CE company. It’s doubtful, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed. I don’t expect Palm to make as big a splash as they did …
FULL LIST: Disappointments of the Decade: The Master List
The decade is winding down rapidly and in an effort to milk what remains of it, the staff at Techland has compiled a list of the undesirables from the 2000s ranging frm Battlefield Earth to craptastic netbooks to overpriced comic books. We know, we know. You’re sick of the …
Violence, sex, race, religion.
Certainly controversial topics on their own, but perhaps even moreso when they’re depicted in a video game.
Techland’s seemingly never-ending list features (we totally admit it) continue as we look at the most controversial games of the 2000s.
Though video games have been around for quite a while, …
Think back to your childhood. If you were a geek who was born in the late ’70s like I was, what are some of your most cherished memories? Riding your bike? Maybe a little. Thanksgiving in Fargo? Absolutely not. Nintendo Entertainment System, SEGA Master System, SEGA Genesis, and Super Nintendo? Yes, yes, a thousand times yes.
For many …
FULL LIST: The Top 10 Spaceships
It was less than a week ago that I finally saw “Avatar,” and what I enjoyed most about James Cameron’s epic was navigating through his fictional universe, learning about it all as I went along: New species, ecosystems, worlds and futuristic technologies used by the humans who are invading
With the news that Green Day would be getting their own Rock Band game a la The Beatles, that made us wonder… what other muscians should get the Rock Band or Guitar Hero treatment?
In addition to The Beatles: Rock Band, we’ve gotten Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, Guitar Hero: Metallica, Guitar Hero: Van Halen (out next week) as well as a …
The first press screenings of Avatar were held late Thursday night, so naturally the reviews are flooding online today. We’re dying to hear what TIME’s film critic, Richard Corliss, thought of the whole thing – his review will be posted here in a day or two – and we’re going to be publishing a lengthier roundtable discussion …
