videoXbox live pulling the plug for original Xbox? LOL @ Halo 2 fans =P
Microsoft is pulling the plug on the original Xbox as Xbox LIVE support is being discontinued for the console on April 15.
The discontinuation of Xbox Live extends to Xbox Originals and Xbox games playable on the Xbox 360.
"This isn't a decision we made lightly, but after careful consideration, it is clear this will provide the greatest benefit to the Xbox LIVE
community," said Microsoft's Marc Whitten. First launched in 2002, Xbox LIVE has since become the cornerstone of Microsoft's console strategy, enjoying huge popularity on the Xbox 360
with some 23 million users.
"I want to assure you that the best is yet to come for Xbox LIVE
," Whitten continued "I believe we'll look back on 2010 as a landmark year in gaming and home entertainment, and I couldn't be more excited about what we have in store with "Project Natal" and LIVE."
This is one to sure rupture Halo 2
fanatics...I mean, dayum if you look at IGN right now - you can definitely see the diatribe.

Google comes out with iPad killer?
While the iPad
may be sweeping the news, it isn't the only hot topic in the techie universe, as Google
may now be developing a tablet solution of their own. Google tablet chatter started this week when the company's development staff posted concept hardware and user interface renders of a tablet device running their Chrome operating system. The images were posted to Chromium.org, Google's official development page for the Chrome platform, and quickly caught the eye of tablet-hungry technophiles.
The post is riddled with choice words and phrases lik "concept UI," "subject to change," and how the device "might look," which also came paired with the rumor igniting phrase "under development." Those two magical words have our brains pondering the possibilities, but beyond our flights of fantasy, here is what Google's official tablet experiments have entailed.
According to the post, the Chromium team is testing a touchscreen user interface that includes these key points:
Keyboard interaction with the screen: anchored, split, attached to focus.
Launchers as an overlay, providing touch or search as means to access web sites.
Contextual actions triggered via dwell.
Zooming UI for multiple tabs
Tabs presented along the side of the screen
Creating multiple browsers on screen using a launcher
Check out Google's tablet concept video.
For those unfamiliar with Chrome OS, it is Google's new web-centric mobile platform for laptops and netbooks. Chrome OS is unique in that unlike Windows or Mac operating systems, it is designed specifically for web applications, reducing the emphasis on localized software and replacing it with cloud-based programs. In other words, Chrome accesses programs and user data that reside on a web server, alleviating strains on internal processors and making accessing said information on a wider breadth of devices.

Some of the truest words ever
Alien Ness is a b-boy born in the South Bronx in the 60's and he started dancing in the year 1982. He is what you would call a 3rd generation b-boy (the exploitation era. A la Flashdance

Capcom's Dead Rising movie due out soon?_?
Here's an interesting post from IGN:
"First announced yesterday in Tokyo, the Dead Rising flick, formally known as Shibyou Osen Dead Rising, is being directed by Dead Rising producer (and Mega Man father) Keiji Inafune himself. The movie will follow the exploits of brothers Shin and Jouji who must escape from a quarantined town that's filled with zombies.
The trailer has plenty of gore, along with what we think might be b-level Japanese acting. This, we were expecting. What we weren't expecting is the use of a first person perspective. According to Capcom, the movie aims to give viewers the experience of a first person shooter.
We're not sure if Capcom plans on charging people to view the Dead Rising move, but it doesn't look like it. The movie is set to see release on the web some time this year."
