Video Game Therapy For 'Lazy Eye' Gets Cooperation From Kids
2011-10-23 19:45:00 Until now, a condition known as 'lazy eye,' or amblyopia, was considered virtually un-reparable after the age of 10. But Dr. Somen Ghosh has used an ingenious and no doubt, immensely fun, treatment for lazy eye - video games - and it has shown promise in his test groups.
Registering Video Game Copyrights In China
2011-10-18 05:48:00 In both the United States and in China, one need not actually register one's copyright to have one. This oftentimes leads companies not to bother registering their copyrights. The problem with not registering your copyright in China is that it is nearly impossible to prevail in a copyright lawsuit unless and until your copyright has been registered. American companies too often think this is no big deal, figuring that if anyone infringes on their copyright, they will simply register it and then sue. However, the problem with this thinking is that securing the actual copyright registration in China typically takes from 12-18 months. If a Chinese company is violating your copyright and you cannot sue for another year, it becomes very difficult to stop the Chinese company from infringing. You can write a cease and desist letter, of course, but it will not be all that powerful because you will not be able to cite to any registered copyright and the infringing company will figure it has...

Another Video Game Dusting Away
2011-03-05 13:30:00 From previous entries you know that I'm not a fan of video games. Then the Christmas of 2009 I agreed to a Wii, because it can be a family game and it requires physical activity. Well, this Christmas I gave in to a Nintendo DS for Gaby. I gave in because she's a good kid and she's been keeping her grades up. My fear for my girls having video games is that they would become addicted and I would have to pry them from it. This is aside from the fact that I have to pay for a game and buy games that can be costly. Well, just like the Wii, Gaby's NintendoDS is dusting away. She played with it...

Gamer Rants: The problem with female video game characters
2010-10-06 05:15:00 FAIL: The Problem with Female Video Game Characters - By Josh "vVv Zero" Stiles, edited by Jerry "LordJerith" Prochazka I figure I'd tackle a topic that has showed its ugly head once more in a beloved franchise. Let's get to hating on the girls, okay? (OK, so maybe I just got dumped. Maybe things got "complicated." I'll never tell.) Most video games feature strong dominant male leads that show off their manliness by blowing shit up and looking like they are having fun doing it. We idolize them, and some of us wish we could be as badass as Solid Snake or as cool as Nathan Drake. And on the other side of the spectrum, we've got our female leads....

'Penny Arcade' gamer cartoonists turn boredom and slacker 'tude into empire
2010-05-03 20:24:00 Image via Wikipedia By BOB ANDELMAN The closest I ever came to being a gamer was during college when I worked at the Royal Park Cinemas in Gainesville, Florida. Theaters 3 & 4 had one of those sit-down tables with Ms. Pac-Man on it and bored, listless employees played it for hours in between movie start times. That was okay, but I preferred the pinball game in theaters 1 & 2. Our projectionist, David Rocky, figured out how you could hit it just so and play endless free games. That?s the extent of my experience?and desire?to be a gamer. I?ve never had the fascination with video and computer games that is so prevalent these days; never queued up for the release of Myst or anything with the name ?Final? in it that never seemed final at all. Which is why, despite my love of print and web comics, I somehow missed the ?Penny Arcade? phenomenon. My guests today are Jerry Holkins and Mike Krahulik, the creators of the webcomic "Penny Arcade." They are celebrating the r...

The Video Game Lesson
2010-03-27 12:30:00 So we have the Wii and the girls are enjoying it very much. They begin to play separately because we only have one control. Nevertheless, they are getting very good at sharing and taking turns, especially Karla.  Then, when all seems well with the Lopez girls,  the big announcement comes. Gaby:  "Mom I still want the Nintendo DS." Me:  "Don't you like the Wii?" Gaby:  "I like the Wii, but I still want the DS."  (This announcement comes after she found out her 2 cousins had gotten a DS each.) Me:  "We'll see because this game cost a lot and the DS costs about the same." She was very surprised by this.  ...

MaruBot Football League better than soccer video game
2009-09-23 13:01:00 Just when I am still reeling after Space Foosball, another electronic tabletop game that requires the player to stand comes my way. Introducing MaruBot Football League, a new way of playing soccer on the table. As you can see, miniature robots rest safely under glass, and it is up to the four players (two on one team, two on the other) to control them. These players are moved by joystick controls, and their goal is to make goals. Oddly enough, these robots have LEDs in their eyes that indicate emotions. So if the other team scores a goal, they look flat and sad. If you make a goal, the eyes look wide and happy. Check out a mini photo gallery after the jump to see for yourself. Apparently, this game is a big hit in Korea, but I have yet to see it where I live in the United States. Then again, it’s not like I visit video arcades anymore. Perhaps MaruBot Football League could breathe life into the arcades that are still around. That, or perhaps a home version could...

Ghostbusters,The Video Game Coming to Your Neighborhood...
2009-05-31 22:24:00 Remember the novel "1984" and the doom and gloom it portrayed as human existence came under the control of an entity called Big Brother. And then when the year actually came to past, we were somewhat disappointed that our lives were not turned upside down by some super human domination. But then, as fate would have it, in its place, a movie premiered that actually got us laughing about the supernatural...a movie that got our toes a tappin' and everyone singing those crazy lyrics by Ray Parker Jr: "If there's something strange in your neighborhood...if there's something weird and it don't look good...Who ya gonna call?...Ghostbusters!"

Video Game Nerds Unite at Supercombo
2008-11-09 22:21:00 Supercombo is a company tailor-made for fans of both cool shirts and video games- because it was created by guys who love those things, too. That much is made clear by the attention to detail seen in their designs, particularly in the depth and accuracy of the items they used in Trifarce, a stylish send-up of the iconic Zelda series.One Night Only is another strong concept, mirroring a fight poster but using the names and personalities of the characters from Street Fighter to add some flair. Nice phrasing like "one credit per entry" and "live at the airfield" immediately bring back fond memories of battling it out over arcade joysticks.I have to admit that their third launch tee is so nerdy that the reference initially escaped me (I'm not familiar with Naruto), but Dattebayo! has a really nice style that is eminently wearable even for less knowledgeable nerds like myself. In a sense, that's the focus of the whole line- shirts that make geeky references, but that have such a good-l...
