Gizmondo: An Obscure Piece of Gaming History

Video Leave a comment

Manu Pärssinen (Pelikonepeijooni, V2.fi) and I talk about Gizmondo, a weird game console that was surrounded by controversy and criminal investigations.

The Gizmondo handheld was a pioneering but ultimately short-lived gaming device released in 2005 by Tiger Telematics. Sporting innovative features such as GPS functionality, a digital camera, and multimedia capabilities, it aimed to redefine portable entertainment. However, despite its ambitious features, the Gizmondo faced numerous challenges, including a high price point and limited game library, hampering its mainstream success. Moreover, the device was marred by controversies surrounding its parent company, including financial mismanagement and scandals involving key executives, contributing to its downfall.

Despite its commercial failure, the Gizmondo left a lasting legacy as a precursor to modern handheld gaming systems, influencing subsequent devices with its emphasis on convergence and multimedia integration. Its ambitious feature set foreshadowed the direction of portable gaming, paving the way for later successes in the industry. Though its lifespan was brief, the Gizmondo remains a fascinating chapter in the history of gaming technology, embodying the risks and rewards inherent in pushing the boundaries of innovation within the gaming market.

The birth of evil is explored in a surprisingly good legacy prequel to the 1976 horror classic The Omen.

“The Omen,” directed by Richard Donner (of Superman the Movie 1978 fame), is a chilling horror film that follows American diplomat Robert Thorn and his wife, Katherine, who unknowingly adopt a young boy named Damien after their own child dies at birth. As Damien grows older, disturbing events begin to unfold, hinting at his sinister and supernatural nature. When a series of tragic deaths surround Damien, Robert delves into the dark secrets surrounding his son’s true identity, discovering that Damien is the Antichrist destined to bring about the apocalypse. Filled with ominous atmosphere, unsettling imagery, and a haunting score by Jerry Goldsmith, “The Omen” is a timeless classic that remains a pinnacle of the horror genre, leaving audiences gripped with fear and fascination.
