We'll see Pikmin on the Weevolution X-3D in the year 12.000 before XNORT.

I'm waiting to get a 3DS until they release Paper Mario, Zelda OOT and a proper new Mario (Galaxy?). Then again, a 3DS+3 games will cost €400,- which I still find kind of ridiculous.

you need to keep the ds at exactly the right distance and angle to your face. When playing a game this can be hard, especially when you're not used to keeping your arms perfectly still.

If I store music on dropbox, and then somehow play it directly from the server (this should theoretically be possible) - is that illegal too?

Hunters is a very well polished and very playable strategy game. The price is a bit steep for a game that still has advertising in it (you can click on ads to get free equipment).

I too was severely disappointed by this awful movie. Even though I liked the visuals and especially the music, I was continuoulsy irritated by the silly story and the irregular pacing of the movie.

Six bucks?!?!? Is that the price of a US cinema ticket??? we pay €12, which is $16,-

We've come a long way. Currently my backpack is filled to the brim with 12 different chargers, adapters, headphones, docking stations, cables, and of course the devices themselves (iPhone, laptop, nintendo DS, e-reader). I can't go anywhere without carrying 2 kilos of electronic crap.

Owning mp3 files is not illegal. Storing them online without sharing them *shouldn't* be illegal either. Of course amazon has checked their legal standing on this - but I dont' think they need to close a deal with the music industry.

The PS3 and iPhone katamari's were so terribly lacking that I can't imagine ever buying Katamari again. The iPhone version was just boring, and the PS3 version was plain blasphemy. They slapped on a few artificial filters (making the old levels black-and-white or sepia - how is this supposed to bring the series…

I guess I shouldn't compare transformers to sucker punch, but in my simple old-fashioned mind all these cgi-fests are the same. I just see some random computergraphics blasting in all directions without any sense whatsoever. Not that I don't like the visuals in themselves. I just don't see why they have to be made…

Great review. Undoubtedly this movie will be hugely successful, just like Transformers was. That movie was so utterly clueless about its own subject matter that it was painful to watch. At least Sucker Punch isn't 3D... or is it?

Even though games are often released full-price, the reality is that prices lower in a few weeks time to facilitate exactly what the author of this post is describing: a price that is more geared towards the actual game instead of a market-standard-game-price.

I think Uncharted is actually cheaper than Ratchet these days...

In a game like Fallout (I haven't played new vegas) you were constantly tweaking and tuning the endless rows of numbers, divided across 15 menu screens (yep). Every now and then you had to run around the 3d world and shoot some stuff, only to go back to your inventory and calculate the best possible combination of xp…

*Sigh* I remember the good old times when you could play Burnout on the PS2 splitscreen with a friend. Hey wait! You still can! Who needs next-gen anyway.

Auto-checkpoints are the best in my opinion. You never have to pause your game experience for browsing through some clumsy menu system. Manually saving at certain points (typewriter in resident evil) is not so bad either - as long as there are plenty of save-points, and the game is balanced just right (like resident…

I was flabbergasted when I discovered Burnout Paradise had _no_ offline multiplayer mode.

My point is that you can switch off the 3D effect with the slider, and still play the game. In other words 3D is just an effect. It's not a vital part of the game like the wiimote is to the wii.

Is the AI based on the real person's behavior?
