My Addiction

It started out innocently enough. I began to think at parties now and then to loosen up. Inevitably though, one thought led to another, and soon I was more than just a social thinker. I began to think alone - “to relax,” I told myself - but I knew it wasn’t true.

Thinking became more and more important to me, and finally I was thinking all the time. I began to think on the job. I knew that thinking and employment don’t mix, but I couldn’t stop myself. I began to avoid friends at lunchtime so I could read Thoreau and Kafka. I would return to the office dizzied and confused, asking, “What is it exactly we are doing here?”

2008 the start of next-gen?

Is 2008 the year we start the next generation of console gaming? That isn’t just old mechanics with a bit of polish or remakes with a texture update?

Alone in the Dark 5 is promising to allow players interaction with the environment around them in ways that haven’t been tried before.

Yes we could start a fire in Bioshock or kill some enemies with electricity if they where conveniently placed in water. But this only happened at set points throughout the game once or twice. AinD5 is promising this interaction from start to finish, with countless combinations.

Check out the videos after the break

It is just an amazing little device that is the same size as an original DS cart, it is a complete solution with no need to purchase any additional components, unless you want extra memory in the form of a microSD card (4GB max) or deal with any messy software and truly the easiest media enhancer you have ever done; To simply put it, this is a must have peripheral for any regular DS owner.
