Poker king Hachem wins in Vegas
Aaustralian poker king Joe Hachem has pocketed nearly $3 million after winning the world's second biggest poker tournament. His victory at the Bellagio Hotel Casino in Las Vegas, earned him US$2.2 million ($2.8 million), reports The Australian newspaper.
He's very emotional, very humble and over the moon, brother Tony Hachem said.
The 39-year-old from Melbourne shocked the poker world last year by winning the main event of the World Series of Poker, pocketing $10 million.
He's a true-blue Aussie and everyone wants to take him on, his brother said.
But he's beaten the best players in America, some of whom have playing the game for 40 years.
He will play in the $US10 million Poker Stars Caribbean Adventure in the Bahamas next week before returning for the Australian World Series at Melbourne's Crown casino.

Need for Speed ProStreet Review (PSP) FunnyGames, February 29, 2008It has been a little over three months since Need for Speed ProStreet hit consoles, and now it has finally made its way to the PlayStation Portable. Sort of. The only thing the two versions have in common is their name. The PSP incarnation, unfortunately...
...ProStreet is light on game modes. You can play a quick race, start a career, or play wirelessly via ad hoc or online. We were never able to find more than three people online at a time, and none of them ever wanted to play. Career mode contains the bulk of what little value the game has...

--Bad: Career mode is nothing more than a succession of races. Controls are terrible. Extremely poor sense of speed. Race types are nothing special.

Call of Duty 3 game reviewed FunnyGames, November 27, 2006...Call of Duty 3 is a World War II first person shooter game (played on Xbox 360) that takes place just about entirely in France shortly after D-Day. As you finish various battles in this game you'll swap around between the perspectives of four soldiers in the American, Canadian, Polish, and British armies. You'll come in contact with the French resistance, drive jeeps and tanks, and play...
...While CoD2 was one of the best-looking games during the Xbox 360's launch, it was obvious that the game wasn't really taking advantage of the power of Microsoft's powerhouse console.
