A PS3 commercial where the PS3 morphs into Bayonetta and then f*ks the brains out of the guy who 'turned it on'.
"PS3. IT ONLY DOES EVERYONE."
I know - I should totally be writing for Sony's advertising division. ;)
The way things are going, though; I'm starting to think sex is going to become a completely virtual experience. With location tags and post-coital tweets for the legions of virtual voyeurs who'll want to tune in and watch. Couples will have their own sex channels, their own virtual following, people will subscribe and pay good money to...oh wait, that's already happened.
Never mind. Just hook me up to the Hedonism3000 and send Bayonetta over.
Ok, so maybe it just looks so much cooler than the first one, that I took it for a literally new element. If that's all gameplay action...I'm impressed.
You get to be a Big Daddy!!? NO WAY...that's AWESOME!
Graphics look incredible, hope that's not just the cutscenes.
O_O
That's the smartest thing I've ever heard anyone say about anything.
Bubbles+ for that. Brand loyalty is just a noble name for a personality cult.
Ah! Makes sense. Thanks for the info, I didn't know about the dispute. Bubbles +
What happened to the SixAxis motion controller that comes bundled with the system? You know, the motion control that was so important it initially replaced rumble? Anyone?
I'll tell you what happened: LAIR. And a very low number of developers utilizing the SixAxis. Why? It became evident that despite the brief novelty value, people don't want to wave their controllers around. If we wanted physical exercise, we'd go for a walk.
Meh...we'll see what happens, but ...
"I get the feeling he *wanted* us to watch..."
Me too, buddy. Me too. There's something voyeuristic about these scenes, I can't quite put my finger on it. Maybe if it was POV sex I'd be less disturbed...
..ok, I admit I laughed. Nervously. ;o
Couldn't have said it better. Bubbles+
I've seen so many whiners commenting about him everywhere - ooh, we voted for a moron who spent 8 years driving the country into the ground, and Obama hasn't totally cleaned up the mess in the single year afterward...boo hoo...give us back our cowboy!
Honestly, sometimes I think the American people don't *deserve* a good president. Put the Republicans back in office and see how quick they start singing a different tune.

Two words: cloud computing.
I guarantee that's what Apple's looking ahead to. Can't let MS have too much of a head start, after all. They already learned their lesson about THAT.
They change one letter in the name, and act all surprised when people start making comparisons? Puh-leeeeeze.
Looks viable, at any rate; it figures Apple would be the one to come up with something like the PADD in Star Trek.
It's guys like this that keep freedom alive a little longer. Without them, we would never stick it to the man - the man would forever stick it to us, saying something like "I have a lifetime contract you need to sign before we can activate your phone. ..Bend over."
What's the policy on lap-dances at Sully's Bar? Is that considered sexual harassment? Cause if it is...ah, never mind.
Edgy developers + 'nudity & sex' of the fade-to-black variety = still lame.
KRATOS WANTS MOAR!!! MOAR NUBILE WENCHES!!! RAAAWR!!!
Nowhere did I hear anything about *why* MS and Nintendo should be afraid...very afraid. All I read was a bunch of market-ese and b/s about putting consumers "in the game" being the 'Holy Grail' as though they were on track to developing holo-deck technology.
Blowhards, every one of them, regardless of corporate affiliation.
Seriously, what's up with the pinhead?
<think unsexy thoughts think unsexy thoughts...ugh, *that's* unsexy>
edit:
Think I'll pick up Dante's Inferno instead.
Gosh, Sony and Microsoft must be mad that pirates keep ripping off their games...oh wait, Sony doesn't have that problem. Never mind.
Mastiff, did I miss something? Is Sony offering $10 off all games as a substitute for B/C? I don't recall getting that memo, so I don't think anyone's being given such a choice.
I'd rather have a Ferrari than B/C; but that doesn't mean Sony's going to give me one.
I find it odd that the majority of PS3s are B/C-free, yet the Playstation Store still sells PS2&1 classics.
And what's the deal with the firmware allowing you to create virtual memory cards for the PS1 & 2 when you can't actually play the games?
I'm just sayin'...
@ 1.7: From Victoria's Secret to billboards, there is no lack of appetite in the conventional media for using skimpily-attired females to sell product. But when it comes to games, suddenly devs freak out at the negative publicity they might get. I agree completely - stupid double-standard. Time the industry full of 'mature individuals' grew up.
I get the impression that Bioware doesn't like the publicity they've gotten from News Corp. Trying to not ruffle feathers this time. ...
