Gabe Newell on the PS3: Fact Checking!!!

Gabe Newell, captured while looking at Google Reader Friday.

You’ve probably read over the last couple days that apparently Gabe Newell says the PS3 Is Like A GameCube. The quote that’s been going around doesn’t make any sense, though, but everyone assumes he’s slagging on the PS3 as usual. Taking the quote at face value, [...]

Idiot posts questionable video, Kotaku redistributes the stupidity!

Pictured: Owen Good hard at work.

Today, Kotaku’s continuing tradition of posting just about anything no matter how questionable the source, has delivered the following chestnut: Netflix Disc Comparison Says PS3 is Slower than the Wii. Weekend Editor Owen Good ran across a YouTube video claiming to show how much faster the recently released Wii Netflix Streaming [...]

God of War creator David Jaffe says something

A screenshot from David Jaffe's next PS3 game: Tight Cotton

Bloggers today were thrilled to learn prominent game designer David Jaffe, the man behind PlayStation games Twisted Metal and God of War, has once again shot his mouth off with some controversial snippet in a throw away twitter post. No word yet on what exactly he [...]

This week in non-news: Cyber Monday GameStop Robbery

As if scrolling through hundreds of blog posts about the various black Friday and “Cyber Monday” sales over the last week wasn’t boring enough, Kotaku ups the ante with a non-story about some store getting robbed somewhere. There’s really nothing special or interesting about a store being robbed. It’s a daily occurrence. The fact that the store in question was a [...]

Preward Season in Full Swing over at Time Magazine

Kotaku is today reporting that Time Magazine has named Project Natal one of the 50 Best Inventions Of 2009. Of course, as an unreleased engineering prototype only demonstrated at invitation only industry events, in some cases using faked demos, we’ll just have to take Time’s word on that.

Can’t wait to see their special 50 Sexiest Men [...]

Stephen Totilo, nerd, flabbergasted!

Stephen Totilo of Kotaku, just before being cited for using his camera phone while driving.

Look at this picture of Stephen Totilo. You may think, “now here’s a guy who may not watch or read a lot of football coverage.” Based on a story he published today I think we can call that a lock.

He’s talking [...]

Dear Blogosphere: TL;DR

Seriously: i’ve been shot! – tim rogers – Kotaku.

Kotaku steals story idea from Gamerblahhhg!

So, the previous post here on relative pricing between UMD and downloaded games for the PSP was really my first attempt at an original news story. I thought the results of my quick research were interesting so I emailed a link to a bunch of different news blogs. The story got some nice traffic from a [...]

And that’s why I make fun of you!

PS3 turns average gamers into paragons of mercy.

Yesterday the whole of the internet was all a twitter about an apparent PS3 ad campaign from Chile which, among other things, depicted a gamer giving a blood transfusion to Rommel, a famous Nazi general. The story spread like wildfire as everyone was in a hurry to badmouth [...]

Dear Blogosphere: Why must you abuse my scroll wheel so?

Dear Blogosphere,

I really wish you would learn to use the “more” tag built in to your blogging platform. In most cases I’m happy to see full news articles come through in Google Reader, but the coverage of the Tokyo Games Show over the last week has my index finger cramping like crazy.

The real problem is when [...]
