4chan creator working on a new project

If you don’t know about 4chan then you know jack about the internet. It can be quite a doozy to explain, so rather than try to say it through words it’d be best if you just went there - 4chan.org.

Anywho, the site’s founder and current administrator, Christopher Poole, otherwise known as moot, recently spoke at a TED conference on how the infamous site came about, as well as flaunt its 7 million unique visitors a month. Needless to say, it’s hit, however, has yet to make him any real money. Well, that all may change as he’s just come up with a large lump sum of cash, over half a million to be exact, in a new super secret start-up company that could possibly become the next 4chan; or 4chan 2 if you’re into sequels.

New Pokemon, a new region to explore, and a new camera style? Talk about awesome. Now all we need to know now is the release date! We’ve heard that it’ll be out by the end of the year in Japan, but what about the rest of the world?

Buying an Xbox controller through SMS

This is what happens when a stoner is trying to sell you an Xbox controller - for $100 through SMS. Apparently someone was trying to honestly purchase an Xbox controller through SMS, and things started to go pear-shaped. They guy selling the controller was obviously under the influence and wanted to sell a “wire less controller” for $100, and that price seems a bit high. Once the SMS’s carry on, hillarity ensues, and they settle on something else rather than an Xbox controller.

Xbox 360 Review - Splinter Cell: Conviction

For some reason or another, I’ve never had a particular interest in Splinter Cell. But as soon as Ubisoft showed off Splinter Cell: Conviction, I definitely knew that it would be worth a try, given that Ubisoft clearly was taking steps to modernize the series, attempting to broaden the audience. The result, after 3 years of teasing, is a great game with an interesting storyline, and more importantly, engaging gameplay. However, it feels a little barren in terms of content to justify the full price tag; Let me explain

Full review after the break!
