2011 was not a good year for Netflix. Actually let me rephrase that, 2011 was the year Netflix screwed themselves over again and again. First they increased the price of their DVD rental and streaming services. Then they announced that the DVD rental option and a possible video game rental service, would be done on another name called Qwikster. Customers told Netflix it was a horrible idea, and so they dropped the Qwikster name resulting in them looking foolish for thinking it was a good idea in the first place. On Wednesday during an investor meeting, CEO Reed Hasting stated that Netflix will not go forward with the video game rental service they had initially planned for. [read more]

If you thought that only the Sega Game Gear was fighting against the Nintendo Gameboy for a piece of the portable gaming market back in the day, you’d be wrong. There were several other companies that took at shot at the champ, one of them was Neo Geo with their Neo Geo Pocket. It didn’t catch on as the case was with portable gaming machines that didn’t have “Gameboy” in their name, but it looks like the Neo Geo Pocket will return, in a way. The new device, temporarily called the “Neo Geo Portable Device,” will have 20 Neo Geo classic built in such as World Heroes, Metal Slug, Art of Fighting, Fatal Fury Special, and King of Fighters ’94.

Since 2005, Blizzard Entertainment has been holding BlizzCon to get all their fans in one place to meet. Actually, it was more of a World of Warcraft convention with a few Starcraft fans added into the mix. That was until last year when Starcraft II took center stage as the Global Starcraft II League held its finals during Blizzcon 2011. Fans of both games, and the "maybe" soon to be released Diablo III, will have to wait a year to meet with each other for some friendly cosplaying. Blizzard Entertainment has announced that there will not be a Blizzcon for 2012. [read more]

The Sony exclusive, MLB The Show, has been winning over baseball fans since its first release to be the best baseball game franchise.
