Walking into my local Gamestop the other day, I inquired about the Nintendo’s new add-on for the 3DS, the Circle Pad Pro.  The reaction I received instantly startled me, as it was reminiscent of how I was treated when asking if Wii Fit was in stock back in 2008.  Shockingly, I was told that they were out of stock, but were expecting a new shipment in April.  I found this to continue to be the case at many other stores until I finally managed to snag one using the in-store pickup option.  Was it worth the extra work to chase down?  Read on to find out.

Admission time, I watch The Tester whenever they launch a new season.  While it certainly wouldn’t win any awards, the show has been entertaining enough to check out when it goes live on PSN.  Yesterday, they launched the third season of the aforementioned show and it looks to be, yet again, a pretty fun ride.

True Crime is a name that not many gamers know or remember too well. So it wasn't that much of a shock when True Crime: Hong Kong was nearly canceled. After it's near-death experience, Square Enix decided to give it

Shit...Damn....Muthafookah

Originally I had planned this segment to be about motherboards. I got to thinking about what to look for in a motherboard and realized that it all depends on the socket type for the processor.

So here is the processor guide instead. In their infinite wisdom, Intel decided to release several different socket types at the same time. Then there is AMD, who have their own set of processors and sockets just to make it even more fun.

The AMD vs Intel debate has been going on for decades and both have good arguments. Historically, AMD’s offerings ran cooler while Intel’s ran faster. Now they are pretty much on par in the mid range processor arena as far as performance with marginal difference in price. At the high end Intel leaves AMD in the dust. The recent Bulldozer processor group from AMD was intended to be an Intel killer but ended up being a miserable disappointment. While Intel recently announced the I7 3960 X processor based on Sandy Bridge technology which is blowing away all of the competition.

Welcome to another monday. Unlike last week where we didn't have a new show- We have one this week for you guys. Yay!
