Those of you reading this in India probably know that the Budget is being announced today, and one little update we noticed is that the customs duty on games and music software has been rationalised.
What does this mean for you? Cheaper games, maybe, though we’re still looking for more details on this one, and will [...]
The latest big news in videogames now is putting Facebook and Twitter on consoles, and now you can visit Facebook from your PS3, and find out what your friends are up to, if you’re too lazy to look away from the TV screen and look to your phone or laptop or out the Window for [...]

Falling home values, crashing stock markets, nationalisation of corporate foundations… If you didn’t open an Atlas Shrugged and know better (not necessarily in the same order), you’d swear the current world scenario is beginning to mirror her predictions.

Recently, I came across a post on Split-Screen about casual gaming and the giant market it actually is. Let’s face it, no matter how much of a hardcore gamer you might be, you’re still a product of casual gaming. It’s always step one in our path to gaming addiction.

At a recent event organised by Milestone in Delhi we got to fiddle around with a lot of games, including Motorstorm : Pacific Rift, or as I like to think of it – Motorstorm with SPLIT SCREEN! Okay, horrible pun right there, but that was to me, the biggest flaw with the original Motorstorm.
