All the apps on the 360 including IE web browser require XBL Gold.. don't know any other company that makes you PAY additional fees to use a web browser.
And before you ask, yes, I do own a 360 and I don't care how you break down the cost of XBL, you can break it down to how much you pay a minute.. fact is, I don't need to pay any additional fee to use apps that I can use for free on my PC/PS3 smartphone or tablet.
Why?
Believe it or not, despite the glowing reviews, 'Grim Fandango' bombed big and hard when it was released back in the day on the PC. Why use assets (that LucasArts might not even have) on a HD remaster of niche PC game that flopped the first time around?
And yes, I do own the game (before you ask) bought it Day 1 when it was released, played it many times too. Wish I could get it to work on Win 7 though.
Actually, re-read their official statement again..
"..We would like for everyone to have a chance to play Dawnguard, but we aren’t going to release it for PS3 knowing that some people’s experience in Skyrim will be worse.."
Depending on how you interrupt that sentence - it's either delayed or it's simply not going to be released on the PS3.
PS3 version is delayed until a further (not given) date. Sony still has to certify the 1.7 patch before DG can be released and AFAIK Bethesda hasn't sent the patch to Sony yet.
That reminds me.. whatever happened to Insomniac's 'Overstrike'? I remember it at E3 2011 but since then nothing..
Don't expect GTA V until 2013, Fall or Holiday 2013..
I'm never selling my PSP - I still have a huge backlog of games to play and there's a whole slew of RPG's I've yet to get for it.

I think your wife would probably like it - given the rumors (if true) that Ellen is a lesbian.
F the politicians and their own self serving interests, regardless of the party they belong too..
Good luck.. the PSP got DS ports too even though it could do the LEGO games (eg, LEGO Star Wars II, Lego Indy 1 and Batman 1 - everything after that was a POS DS port)
No doubt something to do with 'The Clone Wars' maybe?
Bounty Hunter 2?
Republic Commando 2?
or the fabled Battlefront 3?
Why can't I edit my comment?.. oh well nvm..
Well, it's does look decent - kinda reminds me of 'Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines' or a 4 player co-op 'Rush N Attack'..well, that's the vibe I'm getting from those screenshots.
There's an 'Expendables 2' video game??
Really?
Why?
I've been using GOG for years now.
Don't forget to get 'Worlds of Ultima - The Savage Empire' or 'Ultima - Worlds of Adventure 2 - Martian Dreams' Both are FREE currently on GOG. Classic games that should be at least played once by all gamers.
Still waiting for 'Elite 4' - David Braben has been promising this one for over 10yrs and still nothing..
It is a good game.. the voice overs are great but I was expecting more in 'story mode' though - only 15 levels, would thought it would be (much) longer.
Some niggles I have with the game..
The map is pretty useless, no sense of depth or exact location (just a broad overview)
I tried 'free play' for the first time last night and when playing as Batman/Robin you lose your suit ability if you change to another character.. and if ...
Reading other 'tech' sites, they seem to believe that MS is throwing it's hat into the tablet market. Something to rival the 'Ipad' is the thinking with OS8.
These over-sensitive types better stay (far) away from Japan then..
I never finished 'Bulletstorm' I gave up after 2hrs, just not my thing I guess. Maybe 1 day I will finish it.. My daughter played it and finished it - she didn't like the ending at all.. told me in simple terms that it sucked.
I can't see 'GTA V' releasing this year. Spring 2013 is a good bet.
Don't you think that 'GTA V' all but confirms that the PS4/Next Box won't be coming out until at least Holiday Season 2014 though? I just can't see Rockstar using assets for 'GTA V' for the PS3/360 if the PS4/Next Box were releasing next year. So, to me anyway, all but confirms the next gen consoles won't be out until late 2014.
