Zero Punctuation: Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles

 - January 31st, 2008
I blame Eskom... my normal routine on a Thursday is to get up, check www.escapistmagazine.com for the latest Zero Punctuation and then take the rubbish out. Today I woke up late, stumbled through the house, broke down my electric gate to get the rubbish out and then sat in the dark all morning. Well that is my excuse for not posting this earlier... Yahtzee takes on the latest Resident Evil game for the Wii and strangely enough he seems to hate it in a very nice way. I think he doesn't want ... [»]

Sony’s Gaming department made a profit in Q3 2007

 - January 31st, 2008
Sony has recently changed their reporting technique to report on consoles sold to customers and no longer shipped to retailers. So obviously it was expected that the third quarter results would be worse than predicted. However it seems that timely price cut really did make all the difference. The gaming division actually made an operating profit in ... [»]

Gamestop unofficially confirms new 120GB

 - January 31st, 2008
That rumoured 120GB PS3 with the rumbling controllers is becoming more likely as the days go by. Today it's gamestops turn to semi-confirm that the 120GB PS3 is going to replace the 80GB PS3 and that it will also come with rumbling controllers. I personally expect to see quite an uptake in the PS3 if this is true, lets just hope we get one as well. We never did get that 80GB model.

No Final Fantasy XIII in 2008

 - January 30th, 2008
It seems that the latest rumours about Final Fantasy XIII being released in 2008 may have been slightly off the mark. Joystiq went shouting from the rooftops recently about how it had been confirmed that a PSN demo was on its way this year and that the game would hit retailers before year end. However it seems that they may have been using a bit of creative reading in that story. It has now been stated that it is not confirmed that FFXIII will be released this year. Though it still may. This unfortunately is another game that I don't really follow that much so I am not crying over this. Not that I didn't say this in June either (Yeah flame me for that typo again) FinalFantasyVersusXIII.net // Final Fantasy XIII // Final Fantasy Versus XIII for Playstation 3 // Final Fantasy Agito XIII for MOBILE - Screenshots, Trailers, Downloads, Soundtracks and more...

Howard Stringer says the PS3 beat the Xbox over Christmas?

 - January 30th, 2008
Okay maybe I am missing something here but for the life of me I cannot see how Howard Stringer can make the statements that he is currently making. Lets get the ones I agree with out of the way first, he has claimed that Sony sold 797,600 PS3's in the US in December 2007. According to VGChartz it was slightly less but they are only estimating so lets go with Howards statement. This is also a huge jump from November's sales (wow)... He also goes ... [»]

Halo takes back its crown

So we could say that Infinity War won the battle but not the war. Undertow has also made an appearance on the chart, see giving games away for ... [»]

HD-DVD fighting back

 - January 30th, 2008
So last week I posted about how since the Warner announcement Blu-Ray sales had shot through the roof and HD-DVD sales had died. Well many were quick to ask how the sales had been affected so quickly as the main stream buying public had not heard the news yet. Well one week later and now things are looking even more suspicious. The same company that ran the last research has published their latest research and it seems like HD-DVD has made an impressive come back, and here I was thinking I wouldn't be able to post about this war anymore. So now the conspiracy theory can start, did the Blu-Ray group go on a mass buying spree just after the announcement to attempt to push home the gravity of the situation? I wonder if we can find out what titles it was that were sold and whether or not the HD-DVD sales stayed level and the Blu-Ray sales sky rocketed? Latest NPD ... [»]
