Hey! Look! You Are Missed Tech Illustrations

To date myself a bit, one of the things I always looked forward to in my early subscriptions to Nintendo Power was the art submitted by gamers. I was even known to submit my own “art” though I’m still waiting for the first piece to be published. I still regularly enjoy looking through game inspired designs to this day, but I don’t normally come across artwork that focuses on the game hardware. Behance artist Kareem Gouda has put together two [...]

As you may have gathered from my review, I really enjoyed Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City. I thought the gameplay was fun, albeit a bit buggy, and being able to revisit a high-definition version of Raccoon City is something I’ve dreamt about since the last time I did so in Umbrella Chronicles.

I find my car in the mall parking lot, and once [...]

You might have read my post about the awesome free demo that was handed out at the 1998 All-Star game. 2Ball never turned out to be a successful event during All-Star Weekend. In fact the demo probably made more for the NBA in terms of licensing than the actual event did. Some ingenious entrepreneur, trying to capitalize on the recent trend of selling rare and otherwise unexceptional games for a huge sum of money, put the game on eBay. Well, it sold. [...]

The auction website eBay is home to many strange and wonderful things. In the video game world it’s a place where collectors can find the rare item they didn’t know they were looking for. Just last month an NES game called Stadium Events sold on eBay for $40,000. So it seems that people are coming out of the woodwork with their own “rare” games. At the 1998 All-Star game, demo copies of the game 2Ball, an event that replaced the [...]
