Thursday, July 1st, 2010

Looks like Nintendo finally hit Sony where it hurts: in the reality of future profit via the 3D trend.

Red Dead Redemption 360 vs. PS3

Wednesday, May 19th, 2010

I have probably skipped over a half-dozen or so of similar reports for other games.... it just gets old fast and it's not really news anymore! This is non-scientific, but after playing an hour of both games, and switching back and forth between the two systems on our display, it's clear ...

GT5 Release June/July 2010? Not Likely.

Monday, April 26th, 2010

Not surprisingly, GT5 is not out. What? You didn't know ?!?! Well it looks like they're throwing around a June/July window for something GTV related.... probably another video demo showcasing how "amazing" it will look when it comes out on the PS4 in late 21xx. Well, this isn’t something official – ...

Sony again repostpones launch of Gran Turismo 5

Thursday, January 14th, 2010

Surprise surprise! Sony can't get it's FLAGSHIP games to work 3+ years later. And yes, I said WORK. It's not a publishing issue, it's not a "we want to add xxx car to the roster" issue, it's not even a "how can we microtransaction end users to death" issue. They ...

Phil Harrison Canned from Atari ALREADY?!

Friday, May 29th, 2009

I like the wording "because of a shift of business operations". How it makes sense I'll never know, but America's such a touchy feely p.o.s. country now that we can't say "fired" anymore. We've tried "pink slips" and "moving in a different direction", we might find that you'd "be better ...

Sony: “PS3 PURPOSELY Hard to Program for”. Sound Familiar?

Monday, March 2nd, 2009

Ah delusion. It's a VERY entertaining yet VERY annoying thing. Remember this gem? Those links go to a story around PS3 launch time that detail how PS3 kiosks were FREEZING UP ON PURPOSE SO THAT PEOPLE WOULD TAKE TURNS. Yeah... so here we are again - 2 years and some ...

What Ever Happened to TG-16 on the PS3?

Thursday, January 8th, 2009

Kutaragi originally announced TG16 and Genesis downloads for PS3 at the Tokyo Game Show in 2006. What happened to that? Just another lie! Hell, Sega denied it the NEXT DAY and we never heard ANYTHING from Hudson or NEC about TG-16. File this one under "unfounded claims" Source HERE @ Tired of Sony ...

Jack Buser, director of the PS3's unfinished pet project that sold PS3's 2 years ago, yet just recently came out - Home, joined in on Kotaku's podcast this week. He let Fahey, Adam and I drop in to his surprisingly stark virtual home on the Playstation 3 were he talked about ...
