    Need for Speed: NITRO 10/11/2009 16:15:00

    I dreaded my first race in Need for Speed: NITRO because I couldn't think of a more inconvenient way to drive than pointing the Wii remote forward and tilting it side to side, especially in a balls-to-the-wall arcade racer.

And it plays like Mario Kart with cops? And I can paint profanity on the side of my Volkswagen van? Word, dawg. Word.

    The tech industry has had more than its fair share of products that infamously failed to take off. Some fit the classic definition of vaporware, and were all hype and no substance.

    Apple iPod (Updated 5th Generation) 02/11/2006 13:52:22

    By now we're sure most of you are familiar with the iPod. Apple's portable media sensation is by far the most popular media player currently on the market.
