Being that there are no pages here yet, I’ll just let people write about fond memories and other such junk about their Genesis.

EA or 2K?
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
I want to hear some opinions on this matter. Do you think Madden and Live rule, or are NBA2K and NFL2K superior? I know that 2K(or anyone else) isnt even allowed to make licensed football games anymore, but NFL2K was a good game while it was around. It seems that EA sports’ stranglehold on the

The other day I implored you to go see the Video Games Live concert at Yale University. Whether or not you heeded my advice, I will never know. Though I suggest that in the future, when the almighty Dyson tells you to do something — you do it. For when the revolution begins, rest […]

When things are awesome, I want to eat them. Hence my deep desire to eat this tie. ThinkGeek offers it for a mere twenty bucks, but regrettably, it is not avaliable yet (you can sign up to be emailed once it is back in stock). Funny enough, it was an April Fool's joke that so […]

You know how it works — with the help of each other, try to figure out all of the disguised video game covers. They all share a common theme that, once solved, can help you figure out the harder ones.
Since I put a lot of thought into last week's theme, but you all destroyed it […]

Hey guys, I just wanted to get personal for a second here to explain some things to the 1PStart readers, so if all you want is just gaming news and all that goodness, then stay clear of this post.

Dokidoki Majo Saiban site open! Touching is very good….
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Remember how there was some hullabaloo over a "supposed" DS game that would really exploit the "touching is good" slogan? Most people discounted it as photoshops, and the whole thing disappeared into obscurity. Now Destructoid's intrepid sister site Japanator has found out that the web site for this game has just opened. According to Japanator:
