@OW-Holmes: Except his "career" was to take advantage of other people's misfortune to make money and push his own personal agenda. This is a guy who went to the families of school shooting victims and prolonged their suffering by encouraging them to pursue baseless lawsuits against game companies. That didn't…

They'll never show this ad in the states because showing t-shirts with big "AIG" logos wouldn't go over so well right now.

What idiot at Criterion announced trophies would be retroactive? It's been known since the beginning (it's in the SDK) that trophies by their nature can't be rewarded retroactively- they have to awarded at the instant they are achieved for numerous reasons.

@lifeinthefridge: The XBox1 version of Sonic Mega Collection Plus works fine 360. You can probably find it at GameStop or Toys R' Us for $5.

Brian, now that you have the complete game you should make a mechanical FruitF****er in the vehicle editor. People have made mech-like vehicles so a perfect FF should be easy.

Good thing the PS3 is going to have a ten year life cycle. It's going to take them that long to roll out the console into all territories.

I don't think CAG lost credibility, they just proved the point of the whole exercise. Sites picked up the rumor, some posted it without any qualifications (like "This is a completely unconfirmed rumor..."), and feedback went wild. The usual groups were brought out with the usual comments like "M$ is rediculous",…

Let's not forget about all the limitations the PS3 imposes on the game that Carmack said made their development difficult. The PS3's has less memory available, less flexibility in memory allocation, a weaker GPU, slow disc steraming, no audio acceleration to speak of, and central processor ill-suited to complex AI.…

So the fact that Red Steel 2 is being massively delayed has nothing to do with Ubisoft frantically reworking the game to use the Motionplus? Right...

I bet DRM is not aimed at pirates (because it is so easily cracked) but rather at GameStop. PC game sales are slipping rapidly and GameStop's practice of pushing used copies can literally halve (or worse) the sales of software titles. With this DRM, GameStop can't legitimately sell a used copy of Spore because they…

Genius? Wow. That word has been seriously de-valued since they started using it at the Apple Store.

When people started saying MS is ripping off Mii's and Home with their new avatar system, I chuckle. Having a cutesy avatar and a customizable 3D environment that you can hang out in and put little pieces of bling while you wait to play an online game is in "Dead or Alive 4". Sony, Tecmo expects their check to be in…

Wow. An internet poster bashing the creative skills of George Lucas. How brave. How 1999.

Intellivsion Lives was released for the original Xbox. Crave didn't do an "Intellivision Reborn". The link given here as "Intellivision Reborn" leads the the "Intellivison Lives" page. Anyway, the compilation is really good. It is in the same style as Crave's "Pinball Museum" series with a virtual pizza parlor as the…

The "give them two bad things and one good to choose" strategy often backfires if your client (or the public) has no taste. See the last few seasons of American Idol for examples of letting the public make the decision and they pick the "bad choice" intentionally out of spite or a morbid fascination of watching a…

So Sony promises it will be out in 2008. Is this a Sony promise like "the PS3 will have dual HDMI ports", "the PS3 will function as a router", "the PS3 will launch in spring 2006", "the PS3 will have full PS2 backwards compatability", "the PSP's square button sensor is off-center (and sticks) on purpose", "UMDs are…

"the PSP-3000 will be the third MAJOR iteration of Sony's PlayStation Portable line"

@LittleBigPlaneteer: As opposed to the "user must build own levels to get any sort of replay value out of it because it's just a PSN title they're charging full price for" of LBP?

@iam.gmo: This is Sony playing catchup to the 360 again. Rock Band and Guitar already can use each other's instruments on the 360. Microsoft requires any peripheral for the 360 be available for all software. You can't make a custom controller that only works with your software on the 360. Sony had no such provision…

@tironabardheblu: The 360 has challenge rooms including exclusive rooms not in the PS3 version. No PS3 advantage here. Remote Play=useless. The input is too laggy for any sort of twitch game like this.
