Affected, probably, by the PSN downtime and Japanese Earthquakes, Sony’s first financial quarter saw a sharp decline in year-on-year PS3 sales, down 25 percent from its performance in the same time last year. Last year the PS3 sold 2.4 million units during the quarter, this year only managing 1.8 million units – just 400K more than its much older ... [»]
Yesterday I posted up about that PSN Pass image that was found on a Resistance 3 PS3 Box and wondered what it could actually mean. My guess was that it was similar to the EA Project Ten Dollar or the MK online ... [»]
When it comes to FPS games, its clearly obvious that the Far Cry series has a fetish for wide open spaces. The first Far Cry game had a sprawling jungle, while the second game took place in an a massive African landscape populated by leftover stereotypical South African mercenaries who really didn’t like you. Now Far Cry is going back to its tropical island setting, but its going to ... [»]

At what sales figure do you reckon you’ve achieved mass market penetration? The much-loved PlayStation 2 can certainly claim that, having sold over 150 million units during its lifetime. It’s younger, but bigger brother is well on its way to that accolade too, with Sony confirming they’ve shipped over 50 million PS3’s worldwide. That doesn’t necessarily mean that there are that many actual consoles in homes, but it’s gotta be ... [»]
Both HD consoles released newer, slimmer – and debatably, sexier – versions this generation. The PS3 slim was a sales powerhouse; Many people reluctant to pick up the PS3 (probably because they didn’t get that 2nd job) at first were happy to open their wallets for the newer, slimmer and more importantly cheaper PS3. The Xbox 360 S, likewise, managed to provide a huge sales boost for Microsoft. while the ... [»]

I'm not sure if Sony are going to see this as a form of flattery or a ... [»]

Today that means absolutely bugger-all as we hit it out with an all out beauty contest. The PS3 slim is a smaller version ... [»]
