  • Prices Drop on Console Games  - The good news for computer game players is that prices have come down significantly and are likely to stay down throughout the coming holiday season, especially if the U.S. economy continues to struggle. The trend has been obvious for months. A year ago, it was almost impossible to find a game for Xbox, GameCube or PlayStation 2 with a list price under $50. Today, it's much easier to find a game for $40, or less. For example, most of the 21 GameCube titles -- 71 percent -- scheduled for September release will cost $40 or less. About half of the 29 PS-2 games and 28 Xbox games coming out this month will be under $40. GameBoy Advance titles, which have typically sold for $30, are dropping in price as well; 10 of the 26 new titles will be selling for $20.

  • Google celebrates fifth birthday - It is now an internet giant, used by millions of people every day in more than 80 languages.

  • Deadly Inspiration? - The family of a slain motorist has filed suit against the maker (TAKE 2) of a video game that two teens claim inspired them to shoot at passing cars on a Tennessee highway. Grand Theft Auto, a video game that allows players to "fire" on people and cars in realistic, shoot-'em-up fashion, is a cash cow that propelled manufacturer Take Two Interactive to the top of the video game industry. For the middle and high school students who play the game for hours on end, it's a means of escaping the mundaneness of teenage life. But for two stepbrothers, 16-year-old William and 14-year-old Joshua Buckner, that escape turned deadly earlier this summer. They told police they were emulating Grand Theft Auto on the night of June 25 when they took shotguns to Interstate 40, near their Newport, Tenn., home, and opened fire on vehicles.
