There’s two things I hate about being a critic in the games industry:
1. Nothing comes out in the summer (at least no major releases).
2. Everything (most of the stuff worth paying attention to, anyway) comes out in the fall and winter.
Yes, I know I’m …
The third and final issue of Marvel’s Girl Comics anthology comes out next Wednesday–and one reason we’re particularly psyched about it is that it includes a short story by the mighty writer/artist Carla Speed McNeil, the creator of the fantastic, long-running “aboriginal SF” series Finder (whose “Torch” story arc is currently a …
Today, six-time champion and Hall-of-Famer Michael Jordan makes his debut as the cover athlete of 2K Sports’ upcoming basketball title. The news was announced a month ago and the just-released box art shows a time-lapse image of Jordan. He’s probably driving to the lane, about to dunk on some fool. Or a collection of fools. He …
Every week I make some “suggestions” for all those pilgrims out there that get all penitent on new comics day. I’m not here to tell you how to live your life, no no. I’m just saying that these five books here, these right here, well, they probably won’t be bad. Probably.

I am loving Damian as Robin. As a reader …
After a recent leak, Motorola has officially unveiled the full QWERTY Charm for T-Mobile. The latest from Motorola features Android 2.1 (seriously?), a tiny 2.8-inch touchscreen, 3-megapixel camera, something called “Backtrack”, CrystalTalk and Motoblur. Look for it this summer.
Hit the jump for the full press release.

I imagine the meeting for @earlybird at Twitter went a little something like this:
Twitter 1: “We need to start making money, guys.”
Twitter 2: “Affiliate sales!”
Twitter 1: “Genius.”
Or something more asinine than that. Anyway, if you choose to follow @earlybird you’ll get twitters about special time-sensitive …

The gents at Ars did a little JavaScript testing on Google’s Android 2.2 versus Apple’s iOS4 to see which platform had a speedier Web browser. Based on SunSpider and V8 benchmarks, Froyo blew the doors off iOS4 and Éclair. According to said benchmark tests, Froyo is nearly three times faster than Éclair and three times better …
Another year, another FIFA title from EA but this time its different. Like Konami’s PES, FIFA 11 will allow faux footballers to edit teams and players with the introduction of Creation Centre. But it’s not all its cracked up to be.
Sure, you can manipulate players, teams, crowd chants, crests and kits, but you still can’t take …
Popular open source web browser, Firefox, has just hit the early stages of its fourth iteration, aptly called Firefox 4. The beta version is available for download and “gives an early look at what’s planned for Firefox 4,” according to a company blog post.
