How "Green" Is Gaming?

Posted on April 6, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

April 22 is Earth Day, 24 hours devoted to considering the impact we have on the natural world and (hopefully) improving our relationship with the planet. It might seem like gaming is low-impact in terms of the environment — after all, you’re just sitting there staring at a screen as opposed to burning tires or releasing mercury into the water supply — but the video game industry does have an effect on the planet. Gamepro recently looked into it and compiled and interesting and/or enlightening article on the impact video games have on Nature. Among the big three consoles, Nintendo’s Wii uses the least power, but, overall, Nintendo has the lowest rating in eco-friendliness among game system manufacturers, according to a Greenpeace report published in January. This isn’t to say Microsoft and Sony are eco-warriors. In the list of consumer electronic manufacturers, Microsoft was second-to-worst and Sony was in the middle of the pack. While the video game industry

Microsoft Picks Up Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet For Xbox Live Arcade

Posted on March 30, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Microsoft is on a roll lately. The company recently picked up one of my favorites from the Independent Games Festival, Limbo , and has followed that up with another promising indie: Michel Gagne and Fuelcell Games’ amazingly bizarre looking Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet . Fuelcell Games was apparently in talks with several companies and distribution options for Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet , but the studio decided Xbox Live Arcade was the best path for them. “This is one of the most thrilling projects of my career,” said Gagne in a press release posted on their official web site . “I love working on ITSP [ Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet ] with Joe and his team. It amazes me to see how they’re able to expand on my concepts and animations and create such a memorable interactive experience. Simply put, this game is going to rock!” There are no details on when Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet might arrive on the service (please be 2010!), but click below to check out a trailer. You’ll be just as excited as I am by the time it finishes.

Katy Perry’s Stay Slim Secrets

Posted on March 27, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Besides working out, Katy Perry keeps trim munching on her favorite food. “I love mushrooms. I could eat a ton of them. I really love truffles but I hardly ever get them. Mushrooms in general though are so healthy and good for you. I can’t get enough.” As for what she stays away from… The pop star won’t go near pizza or Chinese food because it makes her (and everyone else on the planet) gain weight.

Sandra Bullock Pulls Out of Movie Premiere, Fuels Jesse James Cheating Allegations

Posted on March 17, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Might Jesse James truly be one of the biggest idiots on the planet? While we rarely buy into tabloid fodder, we have a new reason to believe this week’s In Touch Weekly report that states James has been cheating on Sanda Bullock with tattoo model Michelle McGee . Earlier today, the actress bailed on the London premiere of The Blind Side , which is slated for Tuesday. In a statement from Warner Brothers UK, Bullock says: “Due to unforeseen personal reasons, a trip abroad to support The Blind Side has been deemed impossible at this time. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and thank you for your continued support of the film.” We hope we’re wrong, but not exactly the words of someone with a strong marriage, are they? Bullock, one of the most beloved stars on the planet, took home the Oscar for Best Actress at this month’s Academy Awards and brought James to tears during her acceptance speech. “I’m so proud of her,” he said after the show “She deserves it more than anybody.” We’ll keep our eyes on this story as it breaks, but one more point of interest: James has canceled his Twitter account. Make of that what you will… and prepare to toilet paper James’ house if rumors of his infidelity are true.
