If you haven’t already pre-ordered Sims 3, then you might check out Walmart.com. They’re offering the game plus a cool looking USB plug-in lamp! I’m having a hard time deciding if I have buyer’s remorse for pre-ordering from EA. Then again, though the lamp is cool, I will be ...

Now the movie is out and Edward and Bella mania is even more widespread than it was before.  It was only a matter of time until Ed...

Howdy, kids. I haven’t played Apartment Life in quite a while because I lost the damn game disc.  Luckily, I found the thing under my printer.  Go figure. Anyway, I’m finally getting a chance to dig into the game and managed to score “myself” a pretty sweet apartment with a...
