We Will Soon Reach Peak iPhone
It appears Apple has painted themselves into a corner.
What happens when you release one phone a year with a closed operating system? If you’re Apple, you’re incredibly successful and, as analyst ABI Research suggests, you’ll hit peak demand this year. This doubles what Pacific Crest said about Apple: it’s hitting market saturation. ABI claims that Apple will peak at 22% worldwide marketshare and then stabilize. iPhone numbers will still increase on a yearly basis, but when Tim Cook has to face investors, they’ll already know what he’s going to say, which is going to be very scary for Apple.
Why Have I Not Known About Extreme Pogo-Stick Sport Before Now?
The sport of dreams.
Guys, I just learned this thing existed, I’m sorry. I think you already know whether any particular ‘extreme sport’ is for you because of the name alone. Extreme sport. I can’t watch regular sports, they’re too boring. Extreme sports are like those, but with Monster Energy pumping through its circulatory and a Mountain Dew at hand. They’re caricature sports, or that’s how the ads have made them out to be. The big problem I have with them is that physics and the limits of human ability have already showed us what we can do with skateboards, bicycles, snowboards, and variants thereof.
But extreme pogo sticking? This is new.
PlayStation 3 Finally Surpasses Xbox 360 Shipments Worldwide, Right As No One Cares Anymore
Two quick redesigns help Sony push hardware quick.
It’ll take two years. Eighteen months. Three years. Six months. What do all of these timeframes have in common? That’s how quickly Sony’s PlayStation 3 was going to surpass Microsoft’s Xbox 360. Despite launching a year after Microsoft’s console, Sony was heavily favored to quickly stomp out the competition because of its unprecedented success of the PlayStation 2, well over the counts of the original Xbox, Nintendo’s Gamecube and, sadly, Sega’s Dreamcast. Those timetables came and went, taking Sony a full six years before they could claim the crown to the now third-place Xbox 360.

Need A New PC? No? Dell Realizes Its Errors, Probably Too Late
I don’t know why they shut this ad campaign down. It was so smart. So brilliant.
Before Dell’s growth exploded in the late 90s, early 00s, owning one of their computers seemed liked a pretty cool thing to do. You order directly through the company, they made the PC you always wanted. That’s just how they work: they buy the parts and put the thing together and ship it to you. As the number of Dell owners increased though, their customer service couldn’t keep up and neither could their margins as other PC makers began to make cheaper PCs and minimize their component costs. Despite the shifting winds toward mobile and tablets, at least on the consumer end, Dell kept doing the same ol’ thing, though. The same thing. Over and over. Now founder Michael Dell is trying to bring the company private, away from the demanding votes of shareholders who demand quarter-after-quarter perfection.
It’s probably too late, though.

The Walking Dead (PC) Season 1 Review: A Strong Zombie Apocalypse
A dinner not soon forgotten.
Telltale Games finally has a hit. When the adventure game genre was long thought to be dead and buried, some LucasArts alum – a company that made some of the best of those games – got together and formed Telltale. Focusing at first on rebooting their Sam & Max games as a series of episodic adventures using a simple engine and simple gameplay carted over from the late nineties, they got to spend most of their time developing the games, rather than the tools. Recently, they convinced Universal to let them make new adventure games based on their Back to the Future and Jurassic Park franchises, both succeeding to varying degrees. With Walking Dead however, they’ve struck it out of the park with a franchise that’s as powerful as ever and a game that sustains it. For the most part.
Virtual Reality Finally Wins: Apparently, The Oculus Rift Won CES 2013
The future is here. Well, soon.
We covered the Oculus Rift virtual reality headset when it hit Kickstarter last year and while I didn’t end up sinking the cash for their developer kits, I am in love with idea behind the device. VR headsets have come and gone, but our long-awaited savior has yet to arrive. But soon it will: according to reports out of CES, the Rift’s first tradeshow, this is the real deal. I can’t wait.
Evil Dead Red Band Trailer Makes Me Want To Not See Evil Dead
A most terrifying movie you will ever experience, according to the marketers.
This came out nearly a week ago and no one dropped a note for me to take a look. That was probably for a pretty good reason. I’ve mentioned before that I’m looking for a pretty good horror flick and the field has been littered with the corpses of just terrible, terrible stuff. I have now seen this red band trailer, the most severe of all of the trailers, and I cannot unsee what I have seen. Also: I’ve included it below.
Mayhem! In This Article, We Watch Car Insurance Commercials
I’m the guy floating in the masthead image of that article you keep reading, over and over.
I don’t watch TV often. I watch TV shows, sure, but there’s something so different about sitting in front of a cable (or satellite)-enabled TV that’s a very different experience from watching it in full screen on your computer. First thing I noticed: companies really want you to buy auto insurance. You might not have even noticed it before, but I noticed it, like some vast conspiracy operating in broad daylight. I don’t know the logistics on why or how they pick to spend so many dollars on advertising on television ads, but they certainly did. I took some time to examine this strange field of advertisements.
