I really have tried to avoid topics concerning my beloved Dallas Mavericks since they we're robbed by the refs last week, er, I mean lost to Miami in the NBA Finals. But this is simply too good to pass up. A man who calls himself Handsome Tom vowed to blow up his XBOX if Dallas lost. Well, the time has come for him to settle up. See the video.

When you heard about Sony's last-minute addition of motion sensing to the PS3 controller, was your first thought "Wii rip-off"? Well, Sony has some words for you (along with everyone else not actually on the Sony payroll). Hey Sony -- we're not the ones trying to pawn off a $600 movie player that might also happen to play games -- with a less developed online service than Xbox Live and a less interesting controller than the Wii.
