Ask Engadget: Best wireless laptop / mobile mouse? {Engadget}
Sep 17th 2009 9:11PM I've been trying-out the Logitech M555b mouse for a week, and I have no complaints. Hyper-fast scrolling, sleek design, and smooth performance. Not the most ergonomic mouse, but for a laptop mouse portability is more important, and this mouse fits that bill.

Sony unveils 256-player MAG: Massive Action Game {Joystiq}
Jul 15th 2008 4:12PM Was the trailer CGI? If yes then they could have another Killzone 2 trailer fiasco. If it is in-game, then WOW!!! that game looks amazing (even better than Crysis)!
PSA: Mass Effect PC still locked at 3 activations, uninstalling won't help {Joystiq}
Jun 17th 2008 11:08PM Once again, we see legitimate PC gamers get screwed by crappy DRM while pirates continue to crack their protection and play the games with more freedom than legitimate PC gamers. It's time for EA to realize that there is no such thing as piracy-proof DRM, and instead of continuing futile attempts to stop pirates with DRM that further screws legitimate PC gamers, offer features that make the game worthwhile to purchase. This system seems to have worked well for Steam, so it could work well for EA too.

Yahoo! and Microsoft talks fall through once again {Engadget}
Jun 12th 2008 4:33PM It's obvious what's happening here. Microsoft originally wanted a deal in good faith with Yahoo's board, and reportedly were even willing to add more money to the original 33$ per share deal to keep things in good faith. I think most of us can agree that was a generous offer. However, in an act of sheer stupidity/arrogance Yahoo's board rejected the deal. They were asking for a lot more money than Microsoft was willing to pay, and Yahoo has a pretty potent poison pill (greater collaboration with Google) to sour a hostile takeover. So, since the good faith approach has failed, Microsoft is going to plan B: pull the offer and let the shareholders replace Yahoo's board with people who are willing to let Microsoft buy Yahoo. We're already seeing the set pieces for that coming together, especially with Carl Icahn now leading the charge. So unless Yahoo has a really great product or service they're working on that'll substantially increase the value of the company to were it would have made sense for them to reject Microsoft's offer (my bet is no), the board will be ousted and the deal will go through.

Rumor: Sony no longer funding L.A. Noire {Joystiq}
Mar 20th 2008 8:54PM Sony never had an exclusive deal for GTA4, and Jack Tretton stated the PS3 exclusive game he announced being developed by Rockstar is not L.A. Noire.
Rumor: Sony no longer funding L.A. Noire {Joystiq}
Mar 20th 2008 8:16PM One of the rumors I've heard is that she's a game developer in Rockstar, so I guess there could be credence in this rumor. Still, she hasn't shown to have much accuracy in-terms of first-party Sony games (i.e. she claimed Sony would show Killzone 2 at GDC).
