Nintendo are laughing too, only they're able to do so rolling around in a massive vat of money.
"I thought they said wii is targeting casual market, and not competing directly with PS3/360."
You thought wrong. Sony and Microsoft keep on telling everyone how they're not competing with Wii, because it shows them to be failing badly. Sony recently claimed that the iPhone wasn't competing with PSP either.
That's bullshit.
$15 was a conscious decision by Jonathan Blow - http://braid-game.com/news/...
He originally stated that the price of the PC version (out later this month) was to be $20 until people started voicing their opinions on the price rise.
"PC crushes both" - QFT.
It's the same CryEngine 2 that blew everything away in 2007 ported onto toyboxes.
The real time physics are still second to none, nothing scripted, no smoke screens.
And just grab it on Steam where it's been out a week already.
They seem to crop up in every other thread telling us how boxes are the best, and how disk format is the all important factor.
Apple have rightly bypassed the middleman that is retail - getting more for themselves, and more for the developers. I only hope that DD games will fall in price as the sector grows and publisher's no longer have to pander to the whim of retailers.
And Apple have taken digital distribution way further than Nintendo or Sony for their handheld...
EA have clearly shown with FIFA that they have what it takes to compete.
Until there is unbridled access to user generated content on consoles, then PC will stay the home of the FPS.

It asks you if you want IE8 as default during installation, I downloaded it this morning. But if you select the one-click simple installation, it assumes you do.
I'm still sticking with Firefox though, nothing can compete with the awesomeness of adblock and noscript.
It's safer because no one targets it.
Do you actually wear a tin foil hat? Are they really out to get you? Take a step back and actually consider your arguments.
Every time MTV posts positive news, you claim it's a trick. And every time they post negative news, it's just proving your point. You've made up your mind without any actual evidence.
You need to consider what Viacom would actually gain from taking a anti-Sony stance. Note that your assertion earlier that Microsoft is a major Viacom shareho...
Piss off. How can someone peddling filth like yourself end up having 9 bubbles? It's because N4G has a commentary system that rewards idiot partisan comments regardless of their accuracy.
Microsoft is not a MTV (Viacom) shareholder. MTV, given their music roots, definitely has as a close a relationship to Sony (given the music interests) as to Microsoft.
You've tried and failed to attack the source of the news, yet forgot to actually address the underlying issue. ...
That period was unnecessary but I felt it needed the added emphasis.
I hate how companies claim they're not competing with the latest hot product, when in fact they are. In the same way that Microsoft and Sony keep on denying that the Wii is competition, we're now seeing Sony deny that the iPhone poses any sort of competition to the PSP.
Only it is competition, blatantly. The PSP positioned itself to do all sorts, movies, music and games. The iPhone does all those...
The Ipod Touch, doesn't.
Would be a better subject for an article.
I like that Square moves on, I like that they've tried new ideas, even so with newer FF games.
If you want FF7, play FF7. I'd rather have something new.

Why can't we stop approving bullshit AssociatedContent? Would be my second point. You may as well submit forum posts, the authors have just as much credentials and expertise.
Bethesda invested absolutely into their radiantAI system for Oblivion. The system that governs NPC actions, such as eating, sleeping, interaction etc.
And you know what? I don't care. You might as well fake those, because the AI players care about, is enemy and allied pathfinding. It's pathetic, enemies get stuck on rocks, allies can't be given any orders and end off running straight to their deaths while causing total chaos on the battlefield. I'd like them to get rid of th...
