With each new motion control console, there’s always a viral video on the internet that involves somebody or something getting hurt. Well, what if there was a conspiracy behind it? What if the companies just did it so that they’d get viral marketing for their products?

Call Of Duty ELITE came out with MW3, but there were a lot of bugs and it took it a week or two to actually get it started. Basically it’s just a service which gives you access to tournaments, free map packs as they’re released, and there’s a social networking element to it all.
In lieu of the Guinness Book of World Records Gaming Edition, some engineering students (with incredibly long and confusing names) created the largest working NES controller. It has nice, soft buttons, and a box which could protect a small family from the nuclear holocaust.

They’ve ruined your lives (and your grades) with some of the best social gaming on the web, but now you can at least make some cash with Zynga going IPO at $10 a share. If there was ever a sure thing, it’s Facebook video gaming.
New York University wants to give you college credit and a potential career for staying up late and playing a serious amount of video games. Kinda what you do already.
So last week I talked about two mysterious teasers that were released for a video game titled The Last of Us. Well, at the Video Game Awards they finally released a real trailer with the game’s graphics. The game is being made by the amazing people over at Naughty Dog, so we’re most likely going to be seeing something much like the Uncharted series. Now what does this mean for us?
As a gamer, I’ve run the gauntlet of uncomfortable sitting positions. I’ve tried stacking pillows and dragging couches, but there’s only so much time you can spend in one position before you have to go in to a power lean or relax for a cut scene.
