    Sony killing its flagship first-party title?

    Thanks for the clarification on the various unstellar PS3 GT versions that made their way to recent E3's. I brought it up because I'm certainly a fan of the GT series, but it is still shameful what Sony is doing. A re-release? If Polyphony Digital scrapped online for the PS2 and then scrapped...

    You misunderstood. I DO believe she's lying. The Sony Europe reps aren't the top dogs.

    Sony killing its flagship first-party title?

    It just occurred to me that Sony has really been messing up one of its flagship first party titles. Gran Turismo 4 was supposed to launch with an intense online mode, then it released without one. Then Sony said Polyphony Digital was working on an online version of GT4, which made absolutely...

    Talk about...

    I chanced upon this article where Jennie Kong, the UK PR Manager at SCEE, refuted the rumor about PS3 software being copy protected to a single system. Nonetheless, I have a hard time believing her. I really expect Sony will make the huge mistake of killing the PS3 used and rental markets...

    Unsung games from the past.

    Absolutely, Gain Ground was great on the Genesis and great in the arcades as well. The gameplay in the arcade version was faster paced and thus a bit more difficult, especially in some of the later levels. And even though this game was remade for the PS2 in Japan as part of the Sega Ages...

    wish list

    Yeah, I really can't wait for Too Human. Silicon Knights puts out some great quality games. I hope Too Human lives up to the grandeur, since it is already being pinned as a trilogy.

    Nintendo's Wii Price?

    This is an absolutely genius price point on Nintendo's part. Finally, a strong strategy to get Nintendo back into a position of power in the console gaming market. I can't imagine too many people passing up on the system with that type of price point, especially if Nintendo seeks to correct...

    PS3 preorder watch

    Isn't everyone going a little overboard here? Most consoles aren't very good at launch anyway. I can't imagine the PS3 will be worth getting until fall 2007 at the earliest. That's just me.

    Talk about...

    Retail companies like Gamestop that thrive on used game sales would be super pissed if Sony decides to go through with this new anti-piracy strategy. The profit margin for used games is so much higher than new games, which is why chains like Gamestop are ALWAYS promoting used game sales and...

    Wii to change the face of gaming

    I hear that, definitely true. However, if the game were highly realistic, it would be largely inaccessible to many gamers. There are very few games that rely on complete realism. MGS3 and similar games go for realism, forcing players to hunt for food and find resting spots. I like the...

    Blockbuster 360 Rental Policy

    The age of video rental stores is over. It's all about online rental services now. Go with Gamefly. I, nor any of my friends, have had any problems with it in the past. While I don't have a 360 myself (not yet, but I will soon hopefully), many of my friends have rented 360 games from...

    Wii to change the face of gaming

    This is somewhat of a spin off of a post I put up on the Nintendo DS message board, but I’m becoming more and more excited about the Wii with each passing day. The biggest reason is the possibility of brand new genres of gaming emerging, or at least unique ways of approaching previous genres...

    The Golden Age of handheld gaming is upon us

    This may sound a bit academic, but I believe the DS has the potential to change the face of gaming in regards to how the media and general public view gaming. Not only is it the most innovative handheld system ever, but it definitely has some truly ground breaking gems to up the average gamer’s...

    New Wii Rumors (Maybe true)

    I'm particularly excited about the new rumors of the Wii costing between $200 and $250. What a great price point. I don't see too many people passing up on it at that rate.

    What if you won the 360?

    Although I'm really getting more and more interested about the Wii with every passing week, I honestly think that the Xbox 360 is the best system of this next-generation of consoles. It is just so solid and I love what my friends are doing on XBL with their 360's. If I won the 360, holy...
