id Software leaves ESA {Joystiq}
May 23rd 2008 5:13PM The thing to note here is that these guys, while four independent companies, will effectively act together; Activision and Vivendi will soon be one company, while LucasArts and id Software have publishing agreements with Activision.

Metareview (Euro Edition) -- Mario Kart Wii (Wii) {Joystiq}
Apr 16th 2008 6:42AM It's out in the UK, but can be hard to get hold of. I picked it up at lunchtime on release day (Friday), but a housemate of mine couldn't get it three hours later, and hasn't been able to do so since either.
Metareview (Euro Edition) -- Mario Kart Wii (Wii) {Joystiq}
Apr 16th 2008 4:48AM Might be worth a look at the review from Edge (highly respected UK mag). They gave it 6/10 and it's available to view online at http://www.next-gen.biz/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=9932&Itemid=51

Wii Fit to cost $89.99 at GameStop {Engadget}
Mar 24th 2008 4:58PM Is 300lbs (or about 136kg) really an issue? I mean, anyone over that weight, of any height, is clearly obese at the very least, so surely this won't affect the vast majority of people? Or have things really got that bad in the US?
Will Xbox 360 Core become Xbox 360 Arcade on August 24th? {Engadget}
Aug 20th 2007 6:40PM That has got to be some terrible photoshopping on that image. Errors like the non-existent 256MB Memory Unit don't help either.
Pure Technologies EVOKE-1XT DAB now comes in Marshall amp case {Engadget}
Nov 3rd 2006 8:03AM Pity, then, that the sound coming out of it will be mostly 128Kbps MP2. At least Virgin Radio (a rock station) is 160Kbps.
Ultimate MK3 pops up -- and vanishes -- on Xbox Live [update 1] {Joystiq}
Oct 21st 2006 8:46AM As unusual as a Saturday release of an XBLA game is, it is official - Major Nelson has mentioned it in his blog (http://www.majornelson.com/archive/2006/10/21/Arcade-Ultimate-Mortal-Kombat-3.aspx), and has also commented that a lot of people aren't seeing it (or the THP8 demo), and that he's escalating the matter with the Marketplace team.
