The pics are too big to post here, they can be found in the Photos section.

Gamebryo helped make it possible." For those of you wondering what in the heck is Gamebryo, it's a graphics engine developed...

As expected, Mario Kart has taken top spot on the sales charts over in the UK where it's already been released toppling the mighty GT5: Prologue. Funny that a racer of sorts would topple another racer?? It also holds the distinction of having the 8th biggest launch week in UK history beating all 5 other Mario titles combined. Not a bad effort...

After listening to constant reports of faulty Mario Kart Wii discs for the past couple of days, Nintendo has finally come forward and flatly denied any issue with the disc whatsoever. They do acknowledge that there was an issue with Super Smash Bros.

Litle gem of info found about the web about a secret maintenance option built in to the PS3.
