last xmas, kids persuaded their parents for PS3. of course only a few could afford it. This year, parents can now afford it. This will be an interesting console battle.

My prediction, Wii 1st, PS3 2nd (close to 1st) and xbox 360 very weak 3rd.

As much as I would love to see it. I don't see the 360 coming in 3rd. Im sure it will be what it is now with the Wii at #1, the 360 in 2nd, and the PS3 in 3rd. I believe that all the consoles will see a significant spike in sales this holiday though, especially with the price drop of the PS3. Unfortunately the PS3 will still come in 3rd i think.... :(

Were an eye opener for Sony. The month when they dropped the price $100 and still couldn't outsell the 360 had to hit Sony hard.

Call it desperation to drop the price another $100. I call it a comeback.

LSDARBY6675d ago

I say, Wii 1st, 360 2nd, PS3 3rd but close 2nd.

Thats if Nintendo can actually stock the shelfs with their product. We all know it will sell but will it be there when you go to buy it.

Loved Ecco on Megadrive/Genesis. Diving out of the water was always a fun feeling, and the whole 'vibe' while playing/exploring was pretty chill and special.

Always hoped we'd get a proper 3D sequel with modern-tech water-graphics and physics. (Same wish for Wave Racer btw).

It was pretty chill until you get to the last 2 or 3 levels. My god Welcome to the Machine was brutal.

You can always play an emulated Ecco: Defender of the Future on Flycast, or if you have a real Dreamcast play it there.

This makes me smile. I hope that the game and especially the soundtrack keep the same relaxed vibe.

That is amazing news. Keep it level based or metroidvania but dont go the roguelike route and it should be good.

Now do Shining Force, the small but passionate fanbase wants a new game so badly.

That brings me back. I know I have a couple copies on Sega consoles but they’re in a box somewhere.
I may check out a new game if done well
