The lineup that Konami has setup with local businesses is designed to "unite" dedicated gamers with their virtual lady loves. Participants will board the Love Plus bus in Tokyo.

U.S. Video Game Sales Earn Low Score

| The video game industry posted another disappointing sales month in the U.S. in February, with revenue down 15% from a year ago. Sales of video game hardware, software and accessories totaled $1.26 billion, vs. $1.48 billion in February 2009, the NPD Group said late Thursday. Sales of game consoles took the biggest hit last month, with revenue down 20% to $426 million. “Honestly, I had expected the industry to perform somewhat better this month,” said NPD analyst Anita Frazier. “Nonetheless, strong new releases, and Easter gift-buying bodes well for industry performance in March.” |
Ok, But Which Device Is Better at Smashing Through Walls? (Nintendo DSi vs. PSP Go!)

| The DSi shatters and fragments, which is more effective at maiming and disabling a target. On the other hand, the N97 remains whole, for greater penetration through tough surfaces. Both, however, are fun to look at. Far from an honest ballistics test, the shoot(ing), staged by French gaming magazine Amusement, was just an opportunity to snap a few stunning photos. Which is fine! And which they did! So, where's the video? Update: Yeah, you guys are right—the black one is an N97, not a PSP. Still though! |

| The games console, which simulates sport and other physical activities like dancing and guitar hero, could potentially improve symptoms of the degenerative illness, experts say. As well as helping with coordination and reflexes - Parkinson's impairs motor skills - medics think that the Wii has other benefits as well...such as lifting depression and increasing energy levels in patients. Doctors at the Medical College of Georgia piloted an eight-week study where they asked 20 Parkinson's sufferers to spend an hour the Wii three times a week for four weeks. The patients, all in a stage of the disease where both body... |

| On October 7, 2008, Debbie Schlussel broke the story about the Fisher Price (Mattel) marketing the Little Mommy Cuddle & Coo Doll, a doll that markets Islamic propaganda (See: INDOCTRI-Nation: Fisher-Price Doll Tells Your Kids, "Islam is the Light"). Little Mommy Cuddle is a blond, blue-eyed baby doll that coos "Islam is the Light" (listen to the slowed down audio here.) Originally the Doll Mattel Denied the Report, but eventually the toy was removed from major retailers such as Wal-Mart. Now your child can get the Sharia message on their Nintendo Gaming system: |

| KNIGHTSVILLE, Ind. (WTHI) - Months ago, Rachel Jones was shocked to discover her 4-year-old's baby doll seemed to have a hidden message: Islam is the light. Imagine her surprise when a game for her 8-year-old daughter's Nintendo DS had the same message. Rachel said she bought the Nintendo game, Baby Pals, as a gift for her 8-year-old daughter after a good report card. She had no idea the game also contained the hidden message "Islam is the light." |

Free Republic Thread of BUY THIS GAME! (Video game recommendation thread)

| I thought it might be useful to have a thread for game recommendations. Thread suggestions: While popular games like Halo 3, Super Mario Galaxy, and Metal Gear Solid 4 deserve every bit of attention they've received, I can't think of a gamer that doesn't know of their existence. Let's focus on the hidden gems and lesser known games. Let's not get into system wars. The Wii, 360, PS3, PC and Mac all have their own must-have games. If you're a hardcore gamer, odds are good that you own all of these platforms anyway, so please keep your stoney, ninthing, and... |
