- General update...
- Whew... this week has been hectic to say the least. Monday, the first part of my article on The Future of Console Gaming was linked to from Slashdot, needless to say we got a sizable increase in site traffic from this.
Also on Monday we got a chance to check out a couple of products from a UK console peripheral manufacture Joytech. The most notable of which is a PlayStation controller they call the "AirPad". It is a "tilt controller" meaning that in order to take advantage of the analog features, you physically tip the controller different directions. Both Ferrari Man and myself have clocked in some hours with this controller and we think it's so good that it may replace the NegCon for racing games. Look for a full review shortly.
And last but not least, Dr. Otto has a new comic up where he takes a poke at deathmatch gaming.
