When it comes to the corporate customer, desktops are still king, particularly because they're the easiest and least expensive to upgrade with fast, power-hungry components. Yet one researcher predicts it will be five to seven years before only the "die-hard" desktop users are left. Is it time for you to make the switch?

Throw up the horns and get ready to shred with the sequel to the incredibly popular rhythm game from Harmonix.
The UK Show Bravo featured Heavenly Sword, and with it some new unseen exclusive footage, which has yet to hit the web. However, what we do have are impressions and screens (some showing Nariko with a bazooka against a large army).
Kai is playable and is very different to Nariko, using a crossbow, and you can guide the projectiles with the sixaxis or the analogue sticks.
New cutscenes show the incredible emotions shown in the facial animation.
The stances (distance, speed and power I think) have a big part to play and pressing triangle at the right time whilst blocking launches a counter. There are two levels of counter. If you get the timing perfect you do a badass counter that kills your main target and knocks down surrounding enemies. You have to tailor your attack and stance to the type of opponet you're facing. And it appeared as if combat scenarios weren't limited to one type of opponent.
It's very simple to perform "superstyle" moves. Just press O. You have a superstyle gauge, not sure if it refills over time or through pickups.
The sheer number of characters on screen at times is astounding and the graphics are awesome, especially the lighting. The latest build of the game was shown and the framerate is looking steady, should be no problems by the time it ships.

World Series of Video Games Trying to Break Gamers' Slacker Image
Back in November, Entertainment Weekly reviewed the three next-generation videogame consoles: Sony's PlayStation 3, Nintendo's Wii, and Microsoft's Xbox 360. The first two systems had just arrived in stores, the latter had just celebrated its first anniversary. As they expected, some of you took grave exception to the grades they awarded each system. Now, as they prepare for next week's E3 convention ? look for their on-the-scene reports on EW.com's PopWatch blog ? they offer this midterm report card for the three consoles...

Nintendo of Japan's super-cool Club Nintendo has yet another weird/amazing DS title that North America and Europe will probably never see. First, it was the
Game & Watch Collection, followed by the less desirable but still enticing
Tingle's Balloon Fight. And now, the special Japan-only point-redemption system is rewarding lucky gamers with
Exclamation Warriors, a bizarre DS game which exclusively utilizes the microphone for gameplay
Exclamation Warriors has players controlling spandex-suited
sentai heroes (think Mighty Morphin Power Rangers). The game is multiplayer by necessity, and requires 2-3 players to fight monsters by (are you ready for this?) yelling the names of super-moves simultaneously, in typical cheesy sci-fi style.
There's a reason why this isn't a retail title, but that doesn't stop us from coveting the
Club Nintendo system, and all of its weird merchandise and games. Where's
our spandex, Nintendo? Where's
our spandex?

One of these 'kinds of flexibility' involved Microsoft not getting paid a license fee for each Linux and Mac computer in schools."

The Wii is ushering in a new era for Nintendo, not just
technologically, but also in their business relationships with third party developers. Not only is Nintendo poised to
smash their "kiddie" image (
Resident Evil 4 helped on the Gamecube, but it in no way
compares to
Manhunt 2 for Wii), but it's looking like third party developers won't have to justify their love for Nintendo anymore. The company is
opening up and letting them learn how to use their Wiimote for the most pleasurable experience possible.
The NY Times explores Nintendo's sudden outreach using Namco Bandai as an example, saying that the "usually aloof executives" came to the publisher a year ago with an "appeal for their support." Namco Bandai's COO, Shin Unozawa says, "I had not seen that attitude from them before ... Nintendo was suddenly reaching out to independent developers."
We've seen some
arrogant statements from American Nintendo execs, but the Wii seems to be Nintendo's contrition machine. Despite being more open to publishers, Nintendo refused to comment on their new approach to the NY Times. Although the Wii is
selling incredibly well, the games haven't broken out of the
gimmicky mold yet. When
Metroid and
Mario Galaxy hit later this year, we'll get the first real dose of what a game designed for the Wii can offer, instead of the Gamecube techno-ports we've had so far. And by next year, we may begin seeing solid titles from
third party developers. Here's to hoping Nintendo learned from their past mistakes and makes the Wii what the Gamecube could have been with support form third party publishers.

At all the red carpet premieres I've been to, there's usually the stars from the movie, and then a handful of random celebrities or so-called celebrities who are there for no apparent reason. Usually you just stare in confusion when Stephen Colbert walks by, but sometimes you get a chance to chat with the stars of the greatest TV show of all time. I'm talking, of course, about Gossip Girl.

Yeah, so Sony's hitting us with
magically-thin OLED TVs, Microsoft is
showing off Windows 7, and Google's demoing
hot new Android phones, but nothing gets us going like an old-fashioned tariff agreement dispute based on the classification of certain types of goods, you know? That's just good clean fun. It's also what's going down between the US and the EU -- our charming government has just filed a complaint with the World Trade Organization, alleging that the EU is mis-classifying multifunction printers, flat-panel computer displays, and cable boxes that fall under the 1996 Information Technology Agreement in order to collect tariffs on their imports. Essentially all these products should be duty-free, but the EU says their additional functions require the ITA be re-negotiated to cover them -- LCD displays can also be used with DVD players, for example, and so qualify as "video monitors," which are taxed. Sure, it's a totally semantic fight, but that's what trade representatives live for -- we hear this one's going to be bigger than the 2006 Canadian Softwood Lumber Import showdown.
