Now that the PS3 is mid-stream into it's lull phase, you've already seen some of the predictions of it's ultimate fate. I usually try to avoid the hypesters and the analysts with their words of doom or praise for things that don't yet exist, but when they get so numerous ...

PS3 needs better ‘everything’ AND a price cut

Tuesday, May 29th, 2007

Ouch! Well, it's true though (and you know it). With the recent addition of game upscaling and a few pics to prove its worth, I personally think the PS3 is worth about $400. If it dropped to $399 and I had the cash on me, I'd jump on it. Here's a ...

The Making of This is Living Commercials

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007

Later in the interview, Dave gives us this nugget: I think you would be hard pressed to find a product launch in the past several years that matched the buzz generated by PS3. Dave likes being hard pressed. ...no comment. How about the Wii, Dave? You know, that system that came out from that ...

LocoRoco creator finds SixAxis “tiring”

Tuesday, May 22nd, 2007

Last minute ill-conceived ideas that were included simply to try to one up other companies tend to be a pain in the ass later. "Let's say for a moment that LocoRoco 2 was coming to the PS3. Would it use SIXAXIS motion controls?" I actually tried that, and learned that it's quite ...
