    Next-Gen Wii HD Due by 2011

    Nintendo will have a resigned Wii once sales of start dropping but it is going to disappoint many who are expecting more power. I expect the redesign to be akin to what DS was to DS lite or DSi. Nintendo isn't playing the same game as Sony or Microsoft. This has been discussed before, but does...

    NVIDIA shows signs ... [2008 - 2017]

    I've read users complain on mac forms about their geforce 8500 being underclocked. I wonder if that mitigates the problem.

    Subscription based gaming

    IMO digital subscription based gaming is the future and the hardcore gamer (one that buys 1-2 games a month) would be the ideal target segment. Initially the two models of distribution (digital subscription vs. retail) have to exist concurrently until attitudes and technology catch up to such a...

    Sony: PlayStation 3 price drop

    IF true, I am really surprised to see a price cut happen so soon, considering the loss sony takes on each unit. I wonder what sort of reduction in cost they were able to get in manufacturing since launch. I hope microsoft is going to follow suit and drops $100 off their units.

    With the way things are in Japan, I expect development to shift towards DS/Wii.

    Some hardware sales in France

    Those are impressive numbers for Nintendo. Microsoft needs to drop the price ASAP and start a good marketing campaign in Europe.

    Rings of Red

    I cannot speak of anyone else, but I had to recently send my xbox 360 in for repair (defective drive) and was very happy with customer service. They replaced my xbox 360 and gave me one month free live service. Turn around time after i sent the unit in was a week. I have gone through warranty...

    Will Microsoft restyle the Xbox360 in the near future?

    There is no question that microsoft wants to bring the xbox 360 core down to USD$99.99 at some point and will probably do some major re-design at that point. I can easily see a wii-like mini-xbox 360. Internally we should see gradual changes as they try and reduce manufacturing costs.

    I am now completely, utterly fucked.

    At the risk of sounding like an ass****, how much of what you say is true and how much is fiction? Do you get a rush out of getting attention and sympathy? There are factual/logical errors in your story. I don't believe you. Furthermore, any person who preys on the sympathy and good nature...

    Xbox 360 attach rate and the HD effect.

    I disagree with the HD effect. HD movies/shows look far more impressive than just playing games in HD and i would indulge in those actives if i wanted to enjoy my very expensive plasma. I feel attach rate is high because the xbox 360 has attracted a large number of hard core gamers. The reasons...
