Team 17 announces Alien Breed Evolution, teases imminent iPhone Worms {Joystiq}
Jul 11th 2009 11:17AM Are you kidding? There were far more game developers back when Team 17 were at their height in the early 90s on the Amiga. More than there are today, easily. Back then all you needed were two to five people to make a decent gaming company, and there were hundreds upon hundreds out there. Since those days they've all since gave up because you need teams consisting upwards of 50 people, or they've simply been bought out.
When Alien Breed was released back then, this game was huge.
Now if they could bring back Project-X my gaming past will almost be complete.
TiVo HD upgrade program helps you save as much as $100 {Engadget HD}
Jul 8th 2009 4:57PM No, that is their max rating. However, the power bill doesn't lie.

Jul 7th 2009 3:11PM I think the people wanting it to be $100 are nuts, let alone $350.
They need to get these down to $50 at the very least.
TiVo HD upgrade program helps you save as much as $100 {Engadget HD}
Jul 3rd 2009 3:21PM Just saying, for every 200w PSW PC I leave on 24/7, it adds another $20 to my monthly bill. If you're turning it off when you're not recording, then the point is moot. Just wondering how it can buffer and everything else in"sleep" mode (Drive is off, processor sits in idle mode).

Jul 3rd 2009 9:31AM You're paying more per month to keep that computer on than it would cost for a monthly subscription to TiVo. Just a friendly FYI.
Psystar bounces back from Chapter 11, intros new high-end hardware {Engadget}
Jul 2nd 2009 1:26PM Microsoft got beaten down in the courts many years back when it tried telling vendors what OS they could and could not put on machines. I think if this ever makes it to a court, Psystar will come out on top simply because precedent has been set already.
Pachter: WiiHD still coming, Xbox in third by 2015 {Joystiq}
Jun 30th 2009 5:44PM I love my PS3, but this guy (Pachter) is so full of it.
These consoles wont even be on sale in 2015, the whole next generation will be out in 2011. The 360 will end this generation in second. The fact that developers are still struggling with the PS3, and releasing sub-par releases on it aren't helping, either. (Ghostbusters anyone?)
Blu-Ray players can be bought for $150 now, the PS3 isn't a viable platform any longer since it doesn't do the HD audio over bitstream, so all the videophiles are getting separate players anyways. When you spend a lot of money on a receiver, you don't want the PS3 to do the decoding, you want your receiver to do it. And yes, there is a big difference in audio quality this way.
Moxi HD DVR Review {Engadget HD}
Jun 23rd 2009 2:31PM You also have to take into account the actual power consumption of the PC as well. Each PC in my apartment adds around $15-20 to my electric bill each month. This is usually why a lot of people just throw their hands up in the air and end up buying a TiVo anyways.
Paramount launches Sapphire Series line of premium Blu-ray releases {Engadget HD}
Jun 23rd 2009 2:16PM I'll wait till its $15 like all the other movies have eventually fallen to. While I wait, I just Netflix it if I want to watch it right now.
