While the temperature is dropping, your Sims are heating up with the new expansion - Hot Date. It's full of cool places to take your Sims cyber-sweetie. It's the #1 selling game right now so you can bet lots of people are getting hot dates for Christmas this year!

If The Sims isn't your kind of game then check out Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy. It's the first game for the PS2 from Naughty Dog and it looks incredible! Shake your booty with the adventures of Jak and his otsel (otter weasel) buddy Daxter as they whomp bad guys, solve mysteries and explore their huge 3D island. Gary's gotta get this game!

The Console Wars are in full swing with Microsoft's Xbox and the Nintendo Gamecube both ranting about who's #1. What's the real deal? The Xbox is still the champ! The Xbox launch party rocked and they've been flying off shelves ever since - 100,000 more Xboxs have sold than Gamecubes. Kidzworld's part-time news dude, TheJedi21, even has his very own Xbox. (Gary is so jealous!)


Have you got what it takes to be a video game champ? Check out what it takes to compete in the World Cyber Games tournament. The competition hit major cities all around the world to find the best gamers. Now the finals are being held in Seoul, Korea and, with $300,000 US up for grabs, the competition is fierce and includes competitors as young as two (but don't let size fool you.)
