since online gaming is really where their strength lies.
I submitted several stories about Anand and Xbox India in the past.
Does anyone even pay attention that Wii have outsold the PS3 by 3-to-1 in America? That's atop of the 4-to-1 in Japan.
And Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Wii Fit haven't even come out in America yet. Imagine when they do... holy crap.
American women, especially, always go crazy over nifty weight loss products. When Wii Fit comes out, Wii sales will trample everything else... including GTA IV and MGS4.
Peter Moore left Microsoft and joined EA is not embarrassing, because Microsoft and EA are not direct competitors.
Phil Harrison left Sony and ioined Infogramers is not embarrasing, because Sony and Infogramers are not direct competitors.
Microsoft and Nintendo are direct competitor in the console arena. So basically a top guy in Microsoft just jumped over to a competitor.

The currently highest rated JRPG of this generation is on the Wii: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.
Fire Emblem and Dragon Quest Sword are also JRPGs.
since it's Microsoft that's provided the activation bypass.
I don't know if the PS3 has any JRPG right now. Many JRPGs never make to the West, so I wouldn't discount that PS3 might have some JRPGs we haven't heard of.
I don't really care about JRPGs anyway. It's a genre that I don't like, and I certainly won't buy a console just to play the genre that I don't like (i.e., Final Fantasy XIII). I've tried playing various incarnations of Final Fantasy -- and they have never retained my attention nor interest for too long. Just don't like ...
PS3 still has lotsa Japanese RPGs. Prolly still more than what Xbox 360 has.
On the other hand, PS3 has absolutely no exclusive *Western* RPG. Nothing. Nada. Nothing currently nor in the pipeline. I'm sure all the Sony fanboys would like to disagree - but can they name one EXCLUSIVE Western RPGs on the PS3 (or the entire PlayStation family for that matter)? Western RPG is a genre that PS3 has completely overlooked and/or ignored.
Western RPG is a big gap and we...
Unlike Toshiba and Microsoft that do not control any Hollywood studios, Steve Jobs owns controlling shares in Disney.
Apple fanboys versus Sony fanboys. Both side are fanatical.
This is going to be interesting.
His Jericho isn't exactly a well-made game.
Whether digital download will become a reality in the near future comes down to how much Hollywood supports it. If Hollywood studios think of digital download in the same category as video-on-demand, which really gets low-priority treatment and schedule, then digital download will not happen anytime soon.
Hollywood decided that HD DVD should die, and Hollywood will decide when digital download will be accepted. Because Hollywood owns the content. If Hollywood puts the content ...
It seems more like because it's Sony you guys are mindlessly supporting it.
Not the other way round.
$40 for 5 hour is just not a good value -- given that a game isn't as entertaining as a movie for the same 2-3 hours spent on playing/watching.
For that kind of money, I'd rather spend it on something that offers a better experience. It's just a much better experience. For example, go watch Spiderman-2 instead if you haven't already -- it's better valu...
How much is a PSP game? $40 on Amazon? So God of War: Chains of Olympics is asking for $40 for 5 hours of entertainment.
A good 2-3 hour movie -- which I generally find to be a much more enjoyable experience than any game for the comparable time spent -- costs only $10.
Put two good movies together, which are about 5-6 hours, cost only $20.
This little short game on a tiny screen is asking for twice as much.
Let's just be rational here. T...
Portal is ONE game in a huge package. You don't pay for Portal alone.

$40 for 5 hours?
You know, a good 2-3 hour movie -- which I generally find to be a more enjoyable, entertaining experience than a game for the comparable time -- only costs $10.
Two good movies, which is about 5-6 hours, cost only $40.

Call of Duty has MULTIPLAYER. You get back your money worth on the multiplayer.
Does this 5-hour $40 game have multiplayer?
You know, if you go watch two movies (= 5 hours), you'll spend only half as much.
because Violette Szabo (the real one from history) was killed by the Nazi. Captured, raped and tortured too.
Hm.
It's much more difficult to check for duplicates for videos, as the same videos are often reposted on YouTube, Metacafe, Google, etc., under different names and descriptions.
The site needs a horizontal scroll bar at the bottom for Firefox.
That's why EA took the issue to the public, because Take-Two executives were withholding the information from its shareholders -- while secretly using the information to change the company pay and bonus structure to take advantage of the impending takeover.
As long as PS3 has 12 or 15 or god-know-how-many buttons on its overly-complex controller, seniors and moms and aunts and little girls are not going to bother with the PS3.
I came from a (hardcore) PC gaming background and just made the transition to console gaming recently. For PC games, I use an intuitive, natural interface == THE MOUSE to control.
When I first used an Xbox controller, my first reaction was "sh!t, too many buttons". And PlayStation c...
