PSPgo launch boasts 16,000 digital downloads. WTF Does That MEAN?!

Monday, September 28th, 2009

This is what I'm talking about, Sony. You and your marketing department know damn well that when people hear "PSP" they will think one of two things: 1) "WTF is a PSP?" or 2) "0mG vidya gaems!". So by saying that you have 16,000 "digital downloads" (as if you had ...

The device itself is a marked improvement, but of course that's not the whole story. In many ways antithetical to the hype surrounding the PlayStation 3 Slim, the debut of the Go has been marred by some pretty downtrodden decisions on Sony's part, most notably the $250 price tag, an ...

UMD: a) FAIL b) More Proof of Sony’s Uncurable Idiocy

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

Let's face it - people were mad when they found out that NES games wouldn't work on SNES. People were THRILLED that PS1 games would work on PS2, but Sony didn't remember that when the PS3 came around. However, who called it when UMD was announced as a new "standard" ...
