Garnett Lee, one the editors at 1UP, makes an entry in his blog that could be of interest to gamers and Micrisoft Corp. alike:
"We come into '08 with all three players in the videogame world about to tell us how they enjoyed the best Holiday Season. While they bask in the warm afterglow, I thought I'd offer each three suggested resolutions to make '08 even better for them. I'll start things off with Microsoft".
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
To celebrate Tomb Raider: Legend's 20th anniversary, the official channels have shared an early in-development gameplay demo.
at the picture........nicely done and oh so true ...........
.....
looks like its ready for takeoff lol.....
must first reach critical mass temperature for liftoff
as long as he does PS3 and Wii also.
Keys to success for 360, f*ck up the PS3 by taking exclusives and doing things devestating to the PS3.

I wouldn't even go there personally, just focus on he games.
-I agree that Live should be free or at least price cut in half. Not that $50 for 13 months is much ($3.84 per month .. I spend more on Coffee) ... BUT ... you have to still take into consideration what the competition is doing. Yeah yeah, I know XBL is better than PSN .. but still ... something has to give.
-I disagree on the look. I really like the look of the 360. The chrome drive door is a give or take for me. I have chrome, but have zero issue with the all white.
-I really do not find the machine that loud. I mean really, I don't play in silence. That is what my Amp is for.
-TOTALLY AGREE with the hardware side. Could you imagine the success the 360 would be having if the RROD "NEVER EXISTED" ??? I also understand the new FALCON boards are VERY VERY RELIABLE and even better will be in the spring/summer when Jasper hits shelves. BUT FOR SURE .. the RROD did not help the 360's reputation. MS needed to make BULLET PROOF hardware to get rid of the doubt. I am sure the RROD worries will also have an effect on the next MS console when one is thinking about dropping cash on one.
His comments are lame.
1. Until sony or Nintendo can match the quality of Live, people will continue to pay the meager $4.20 a month for Live with no real qualms.
2. MS is already out in front of the hardware problems that used to plague the 360. 1 billion dollars and a 3 year warranty are proof of that. What did sony do about the 3 ps2's I went through in 4 years? Not a damn thing.
3. Games. This is the only one I agree with. As long as MS continues to bring out quality, like they have for 2 solid years now, they will do just fine.
Interesting...? Make live free - with 9 million subscribers paying 50 dollars a year = 450 million dollars a year. Do you really think they are going to give up making that much money a year? - Highly Unlikely
