Games Radar has put together a phenomenal list of 101 titbits of useless (but fascinating) trivia about games and the games industry. Their efforts should be commended. Quite a worthwhile way to waste the afternoon. Among the fascinating factoids include:

7. The first ever product released by Sony was a rice cooker.

16. There are 504 pieces of character equipment in Final Fantasy X on PS2.

46. Before settling on its nonsensical 'Simlish' dialogue for The Sims, the game's creators experimented with languages such as Ukrainian, Navajo and Tagalog.

73. 'J Allard' is actually J Allard's name. It was changed from James Allard.
