Week of October 2, 2005

• We get corrected, the Game Boy Advance original design mimics that of the Neo Geo Pocket Color, released before the GBA.
• Speaking of the GBA, new GBASP's are released with the backlit LCD technology, rather than the frontlit TFT technology in the SP's we already have, for the same price.
• Cyan Studios, creators of Myst, are not out of business after all, and have rehired most of their staff.
• Have a PSP with the 2.0 Firmware on it and want to play legal homebrews? Use the PHOTO exploit to downgrade to 1.51
• Origen Xbox 360 is a dud - it's just a contest for Europeans to win a trip to the US, not an expansive Alternate Reality Game.
• We chronicle the official tournament results from Anime Weekend Atlanta 11 with interviews with the winners.
• Best Buy wants to thoroughly take away EB and Gamestop's market share and start selling used games.
• The original PlayStation wins a technical Emmy.
• The 2006 Walk of Game nominees have been announced. Vote for them at walkofgame.com.
• Question of the week: What game do you play that people probably don't know about, and you'd like for them to?
