Wii-U garnered interest across the gaming industry for it's next generation advertisements and intriguing design of their new controller when it was announced at E3 last year.

Things have changed within those 12 months and the truth has finally been revealed. In Dark Sniper's humble opinion, Nintendo's "next-generation" console will launch with the Nintendo loyalists obviously being first in line to purchase their new product. Which is perfectly fine. ...

Breaching Sony Computer Entertainment's PlayStation Network is a huge offense and one that should not be taken lightly. This is a federal offense and these hackers will be looking at serious jail time for their wrongdoings.

Dark Sniper hopes that these criminal delinquents get what they deserve. Which is either life in prison or the death penalty. He has full faith in the US Judicial System in ensuring that justice is served and these ingrates pay for their heinous actio...

Dark Sniper wholeheartedly agrees with this article. Over the past 20 years, Nintendo has made some memorable games and has given over 80% of all gamers today some sort of nostalgia that links to fond memories of Nintendo and their early systems.

But all of that is a distant memory now. Focusing on the recent past, present and future, Nintendo has become complacent. Their lineup of games has strictly relied on the same 5 first party exclusives each generation. It has been l...

Another great addition to the unlimited list of PlayStation exclusives. Dark Sniper advises all of his Sony Snipers to support Ripstone with their first foray into quality game development. Chess is a strategic, thinking man's game. Dark Sniper is glad to see that PlayStation Network will be recieving an intelligent game, made for intelligent gamers.

Dark Sniper will be supporting Pure Chess on day one and so should you. Available only on PlayStation®3.

This is not a surprise. Nintendo's reluctance to give their consoles proper next generation enhancements is one of the primary reasons why Dark Sniper will not be purchasing a Wii-U console.

Nintendo is employing the same market strategy and trickery that they used with the original Wii. Release an intriguing controller packaged with outdated, last gen technology. Nintendo caught lightning in a bottle by releasing the Wii right before High Definition became an affordable ...

Way of the Samurai is another welcoming addition to the library of PlayStation exclusives. Dark Sniper has enjoyed Way of the Samurai since the original on PS2. Dark Sniper is glad to see another terrific exclusive grace the historically great PlayStation®3 Home Entertainment Terminal.

If PlayStation®4 and Xbox 720 launched on the same day, you would likely see the faces of many closet nerds who would never come out of the house on any given day except on launch day. Especially the tough-talking XBox Live nerds who turned racism from a genuine early 1900's ordeal to a laughable joke.

Dark Sniper knows that he would be amongst the several million worldwide consumers who will be supporting the next iteration of PlayStation. Sony has done a bang-up jo...

Very interesting information. This will make for a very interesting fight for console supremacy. The question lies, did Nintendo make a mistake by only enhancing the Wii U to meet today's graphical standards?

PlayStation® Vita is already a success story. Any future accomplishments just adds more wealth and prestige to the platform. Just with the Vita making an appearance in today's market is an accomplishment in itself. The Vita is the first second generation handheld in gaming history that is not manufactured by Nintendo.

But this is just the beginning. Building off a very successful campaign with the PlayStation® Portable, PS Vita is slated to achieve new heights th...

Hopefully what this means is that Kojima-san has switched his development in favor to accomodate the PlayStation®3 exclusively.

This drastic change in direction makes c.omplete business sense and technical sense as Hideo Kojima has a rich and long standing history with PlayStation. Both Sony and Kojima have benefitted from each other as Sony has given him the canvas for Hideo Kojima to paint his magnificent masterpieces on.

Only PlayStation®3 c...

Dark Sniper agrees with a lot of what has been said. Some videogame characters have stagnated their growth within their respective franchises. Dark Sniper doesn't wish death upon anyone, but there are certain characters across all gaming platforms that would help propel their franchise in a forward progression.

Here is Dark Sniper's top 5 videogame characters that deserve to die.

1. Master Chief
2. Princess Zelda
3. Marcus Fenix

Project Orbis a.k.a PlayStation 4 will usurp the competition by providing industry leading specs that are friendly to any and all developers.

It's very obvious that Sony wants to finish what they started and complete the obliteration of Microsoft. With an even more broader scale for PlayStation Network, Dark Sniper sees Microsoft's writing on the wall as doom and gloom for the Xbox division. To put this bluntly, Xbox Live will not be capable of competing with PlayStatio...

The great thing about this article is the diversity of PS3 exclusives that are mentioned. With it's vast library of titles that can only be performed on Sony's mammoth machine, every gamer who owns a PlayStation®3 Home Entertainment Terminal will have their top 10 list that is individual to themselves. Every list will be different.

What impresses Dark Sniper the most about Sony this generation is their ability to adhere to their strict plan of a 10 year product ...

Sony Computer Entertainment does it once again. According to the numbers, PlayStation®3 is the leader in total home console sales this week. It is refreshing to see such console dominance on a weekly basis from Sony. Dark Sniper tips his hat to Kaz Hirai for his excellent dedication to SCE.

This past week was an overall good week for PlayStation. With over 260,000 combined units sold, there were more PlayStation products sold across the world than any other competitor...

It looks as if Sega still has not learned their lesson since their final console was curbstomped by the PS2. After a decade of not being in the console market, they're still losing money.

Still, Dark Sniper hopes this does'nt hinder the future of Shenmue HD and Shenmue III. Shenmue is the most profitable and prestigious franchise they have. If Sega disagrees with Dark Sniper, the gamers will be more than happy to prove them wrong with a kickstarter account to prove ...

Regardless of the name, Dark Sniper is confident that Sony Computer Entertainment will deliver the most magnificent piece of hardware in PlayStation®4. Project orbis is nothing more than a tentative title in Sony's grand scheme in home console continuity and domination.

Dark Sniper believes that PS4 will stretch the imagination when it comes to breaking the fourth wall between reality and gaming. Sony has never failed to give the audience exactly what they need, plus ...
