    E3 2010 is here

    I'm not sure about the games for Kinect, but meStevo mentioned what I think is Kinect's biggest potential: User Interface. If I were Microsoft, I would be trying to license this tech to every hardware maker I could. Seems like they would work it into Win7 also for Media Center control.

    Next Nintendo DS announced... and it's 3D

    I honestly thought that this was an April Fool's joke that got out early when I first saw it yesterday morning.

    November NPD

    I think eventually Nintendo will get a law passed where when a person is born they're issued a DS along with their social security number. I must be one of the three people left in the United States that doesn't own one.

    Another one bites the dust....

    Saw this morning that Best Buy is confirming the Wii price drop for Sun. 9/27. MS is offering $50 MIR on the elite until Oct, so for now, you can get 120GB Elite for $250.

    Batman Arkham Asylum

    $10 less for the PC doesn't matter to me. I pre-ordered the collector's edition for 360. $100 but you get a freakin' batarang. Mainly I've just always been a big batman fan though.

    New X-box live update - August 11th

    The Major posted a blog about this this morning. Some of your Xbox LIVE Tenure questions answered - Xbox Live's Major Nelson Q. My tenure is not displaying at all! A. The Gold Tenure is being rolled out to all Xbox LIVE users over the next few days. By next week, everyone who has at least...

    E3 2009

    Thoughts on Sony's waggle stick anyone? I thought it looked really early in development from the demos they showed. If I were Sony, I probably would have scraped showing it after seeing Natal.

    Nintendo sets wii Gizmo into motion

    Motion Plus is cool, but what they hell are they going to do with the biorhythm device they showed yesterday? It's like they're just sitting around looking for more things that they can plug in to the Wii remote and sell for $20. If they'd work on their games half as hard as they work on...

    I admit, I am a cheater

    people that use cheat codes don't bother me. It's people that cheat online using lag switches that bother me.

    E3 2009

    New...Left 4 Dead 2. Pretty soon if you ask me...couldn't it have been more DLC?

    Another one bites the dust....

    Add mine to the list. First one I've had die. Born on 11/25/2007. I really thought it would be new enough to not be as likely to suffer RROD, but I guess it was no match for my wife's Fable 2 obsession. Coffin on the way.

    US January 2009 NPD Hardware/Software Sales

    The song remains the same it seems.

    Get any good games for Xmas?

    I got Fable II and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. I started with SW:TFE since I knew it was the shorter of the two games. I like the story, but as a game it has it's flaws. Still, the story is pretty good and it's a nice bridge between the prequels and the original movies.

    So, what's everybody think of the NXE?

    I'm digging it so far. The avatars are a little cheesy but the interface itself is slick. I agree with tawhite that it seems a little easier to get around. I really like some of the new information screens such as the ones that list your games and achievements. It also seems to me to be a...

    T-Minus 24 hrs

    I wonder if we'll actually be able to get on Live after the NXE is released. Hopefully they've accounted for the load. I also wonder about the period after Christmas this year. Hopefully they don't have the same problems they had last year.

    Gears of War 2!

    My wife and I had friends from out of town stay with us this weekend and me and my buddy made it through the first half of the campaign on coop. I'd say it's pretty much everything I was expecting. There are some nice new touches, but nothing mindblowing-ly different from the first, but that's...

    PS3 in trouble

    Tell that to Nintendo. They've been making profit on the Wii since day 1.

    Rock Band 2

    I like it. It's not a huge upgrade from RB1, but really, why fix what isn't broken. The only thing I've been disappointed in so far is the Guns N' Roses song. Don't know why I ever got my hopes up that it would be good though.

    RB2 Vs GHWT: Which Tracklist is Better?

    I picked up my copy of RB2 yesterday and while I didn't have a lot of time to play, what I did get to play was great. "Livin' On A Prayer" is a blast. Overall, it's not a huge change from RB1, but a nice upgrade. They seem to have upped the difficulty just ever so slightly. Just enough to...

    RB2 Vs GHWT: Which Tracklist is Better?

    They both look good so I went with equal. I am disappointed with how many songs are on both though. I counted at least 12. That's a pretty good chunk of what's on the disc.

    Anybody else dreading the XBOX 360 interface update?

    I'm still not crazy about the avatars, but judging by that video, the rest of the interface looks pretty slick.

    Rock Band 2 Tracklist Revealed

    It was also said that they're going to have a way for you to pay "less than $5" and be able to import "most" of the songs from the Rock Band 1 disc into Rock Band 2 (I'm guessing it'll copy the files to the HDD). There were 57 songs on the disc. I'll say 50 are made available for export...

    Sony press conference

    Have you ever seen a picture of Reggie? He's the head of Nintendo of America. It's a pretty close representation of him. The comic is hilarious. The penny-arcade guys never disappoint.

    Sony press conference

    That's the only mention in the blog. There may be more info later today or later in the week. The companies usually just hit the highlights in the press conferences and then details emerge later.
