Bona Fide Reviews has the second part of their backup guide posted. Check it out here.

News from Arty about an Xbox X360 falling into the wrong hands. The son of a Microsoft employee gets first public crack at company's next-gen console and posts pictures on the Web. More info on Gamespot and 360 Hacker.

On the same topic as Xbox, The Tech Zone has a close look at both the PS3 and the Xbox 360 in their latest article.

Newsforge has an article/review on KnoppMyth, a product that is designed to work as a Personal Video Recorder. Thanks Bern!

I will say that I recently changed my mind about it and this is my story. Full article here.

More reviews to follow later tonight.
