If only I could star you... You made a dull morning in the office seem that little brighter. Thanks a lot, really.

This is actually quite satisfactory: not only the next SSX seems to go down the right slope, but it also tends to prove that gamers, as a community, can make their voices heard when they mainly speak the same. Thanks to websites such as Kotaku for letting us express ourselves and give feedback to developers while it's…

@Mark Schurgin: Nicely done, mate. You summed it all up in a few ironic words. As far as Mr Guillemot is concerned, one might add that "we need new hardware so that we can sell software to buyers that won't have anything to feed their new consoles (i.e. not that picky customers), and if possible every 2 or 3 years".

I don't know why I didn't think of that in the original thread, but Tretton's words have suddenly reminded me of that very ad. How ironic, isn't it?

Being 40, I feel offended that Mr Tretton seems to think that gaming is either a kid or a 20-something activity... :p

There's no denying that video games' soundtracks have come a long way and can compare with those of other visual media.

But if people don't like it, they still have the freedom not to buy a company's product, right? That's where it hurts: money.

It says "hapgido", a Korean martial art, not too far from Japanese "aikido".

Thanks a lot for the reply. Now I remember that's what I was told when I swapped drives... O, failing memory.

My fat PS3 makes do with a 500 GB since a few months after its purchase. At that time, it was rumoured that 750 GB was the limit. Who knows, then?

Well, she wasn't the only troll out there, it seems... Even the Tokyo governor (who already had the opportunity to get his name mentioned on Kotaku, as far as I can remember) had to apologize, hopefully.

Oops... Double post. My bad.

Not only the time and effort would not be worth it, but I can't conceive that LG marketing execs couldn't imagine that this affair could backfire on them. PS3 buyers are quite a few, and I don't see them touching LG products, even with a stick, should LG get their way in killing PS3s while going for the money. I, for…

I bet he didn't know. ;)

Then, you thought that a service you paid for on a time-limited subscription basis would run forever?

I guess a few people do, the ones interested in video games at least. Like many people here I have a computer (mine is pretty weak in terms of performance, but since I've given up on playing demanding games in terms of raw power, I can live with it), I've got an old smartphone which I don't give a sh*t about (I just…

Or you could say a huge electronics shop, with a few things that look out of place. ;) And I forgot toys and action figures! And gashapons...

And about 25% of each floor (or it looked so, to me) belong to the clothes shop "comme ça". As for the electronics part, you can buy a watch (even brands that you would find at a jeweller's in Europe), a rice cooker, a dishwasher, as well as the latest full option TV, there. You also can find make-up items for the…

... and now they try to be hot...

To be honest, I don't care about the boobs in that game, and I'm more than willing to buy it nonetheless, even though it gets rid of everything I knew and liked from the Persona gameplay. Any project involving Studio 4°C (of Mindgame or Tekkon Kinkureeto fame) is worth getting my interest, and very likely my money…
