Why Macbooks Have No Game
I’ve recently been considering buying a high-end laptop with full gaming capabilities. Shopping around online, I soon realize that there are a ton of makers of “gaming” laptops. Any veteran gamers out there will know that laptops just can’t compare to desktops when it comes to things like gaming (at least in similar prices ranges). However, with prices and performance improving, the offerings are becoming more and more tempting. Continue reading

Rogers Wireless On Technical Trial For LTE Network
Rogers Wireless is one of the biggest carriers in Canada. They have decided to switch over to LTE and is having a trial period with the system in Ottawa, which is Canada’s capital city. I’m hoping that they will roll out LTE in more major cities like Toronto, Vancouver and Montréal in the near future.

The Last Story Localisation Killed by Sales?
As many fans of the RPG genre know, The Last Story is a Nintendo x Mistwalker production and many people had hoped for a localisation of this game for Europe and North America.
Sales for the first week were great for the game, and The Last Story was at #1 on the Japanese charts. But since then, they have dropped to 99,000 sold, down from the 118,953 that was sold during the first week. I’m hoping that the sales will pick up or at least stabilize at around this mark.
If you would like to see this game get localised, please sign the petition here!

Gaming One Hour Everyday = Success in Life
Jane McGonigal over at the Huffington Post wrote an interesting article on how gaming can help improve quality of life. In her article, she explains that around 97% of boys and 94% of girls under the age of 18 are regular gamers showing how important gaming is to our lives these days. She goes one step further and makes an attempt to argue that gaming is a way to lead a successful life. While I would tend to agree with her views that gaming is “good for you” in that it is a great form of recreation and a fairly decent social activity, I wouldn’t necessarily believe that it makes people more successful. Regardless, this article is an interesting read and a fresh take on the traditional “OMG gaming kills children” views published in mainstream media.
Check it out here.
