Backfire, you idiot, I am acquiring an Xbox 360 soon, with live soon after.

I look forward to destroying your face off on some kind of Street Fighter or something.

Wasn't it pokemon? 😮

Had Mii been done properly, it would have been awesome, sorta like Xbox Live / Habbohotel.com, but you create your Mii, go online, explore Nintendo World, visit the Nintendo mall where you can buy Merchandise and game stuff, play online arcade games and meet new people / Miis.

¬_¬ I get more and more annoyed with Nintendo every day. Maybe its because I have so many cool ideas they could have done for the consoles and the games, and they haven't done them yet -_-.

Roflmao, I'm listening to the radio on my radio pen, and they just announced PS3, "Better start saving the pennies, cos it will set you back £425, and if you are planning to wait outside, it is best to do so early, over in America there were shootouts, stampedes, theiving and rather uncivilised behaviour", roflmao, its the way she put it! Americans.....

I don't care that they left it out, I just don't know why they didn't say the real reason and decided to lie about it.

The real reason is because they are being sued and the case hasnt been closed yet. Microsoft settled and payed the owners of the rumble patent which is why XBOX360 has rumble features. Nintendo also settled which is why they have a rumble feature.

The only reason I liked the rumble feature was for fishing games, but other than that I never really even noticed it. I also don't really care about the motion sensor either since I play mostly RPG's I don't see how you can use the motion sensor with that.

If Sony is smart the will have plenty of PS3's for the Europe launch, they are starting to get a little over stocked in America so I think they wont be too under stocked for launch time.

I was going to buy a wii but my brother got one so I just go to his house to play it, but I'll buy my own when fire emblem and Mario party come out.

And I’ll buy the PS3 when the price drops and I get my HD tv back.

£425=$842

Friggin ridicolous price tag.

thats not how much it costs though is it? i thought it was 600.

That's how much it is in the US. That's not necessarily how much it'll be in other countries.

holy shit man, thats ridiculous. who would pay 850 dollars for an experience you can get for 600 or less.

IGN.com CONFIRM that UT 2007 is no longer an exclusive. It will be available for the PC and 360.

UT3: It's Real
Epic expands its love affair with Xbox 360. First footage and new details.
by Douglass C. Perry

January 25, 2007 - Punching home a message that Midway is coming to the next-generation with a full stable of goods, the Chicago-based publisher today announced that the game formerly known as Unreal Tournament 2007 is now Unreal Tournament 3. And it's coming to the PC, PlayStation 3 and Microsoft's Xbox 360 in the second half of 2007.

Using the Unreal Engine 3 (what other engine would it really use?), Epic's seminal first-person shooter will douse gamers with gorgeous, life-like graphics, arm them with unbelievable futuristic and brutal weaponry, and hurl them into online deathmatches like never before.

Run and gun (and swear like a sailor) like never before in UT3.
The new game comprises a vast number of changes from increased aggressiveness and intelligence in the AI to better, more ridiculously powerful weapons to new characters, game modes, and online improvements. New weapons are highlighted by the long-range Shock Rifle and the shorter range Flack Cannon, and more than two dozen weapons will be ready to wield when UT3 is ready in the second half of 2007.

The new single-player campaign is deeper and more engaging than before, and players will be happy to know that old favorite characters have returned and are joined by several new ones. Epic plans to provide advanced online changes to suit all three platforms, bringing seamless loading, improved matchmaking and co-operative campaign online play. Yes, cooperative online play indeed. Familiar online modes such as Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch and Capture the Flag will be joined by an all-new Warfare mode among others. And PC gamers will be happy to get their sweaty mitts on the bundled Unreal Engine Toolset, enabling them to build their own levels, game types, rules, mods, and more.

We'll have more on Unreal Tournament 3 soon. In the meantime check the new screens and video.

Kinda funny... 😂

Sony Promotes Xbox 360 game.

It's not uncommon for gamers who don't care for racing sims to look at the Gran Turismos and Project Gotham Racings of the world and wonder what the difference is.

Apparently it can be hard for the companies themselves to distinguish between the various franchises, judging from the art for today's featured download (pictured, right) on Sony's PlayStation Portable video download site.

The download, a new preview trailer for the downloadable PlayStation 3 offering Gran Turismo HD, features art from a game that isn't Gran Turismo HD. As Xbox Live director of programming Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb pointed out on his blog, it's actually a screenshot from the Xbox 360 game Project Gotham Racing 3 (pictured, below right).

Sony released Gran Turismo HD as a free download on the PS3's online store last month. Project Gotham Racing 3 was released for the Xbox 360 in time for the system's November 2005 launch.

As of press time, the Project Gotham Racing shot had not been pulled from the Connect Web site, but a Sony Computer Entertainment America representative told GameSpot the Connect team was being notified of the issue.

Haha! good stuff.

I may soon be getting another job. All these games coming out for the 360 are eating my wallet. I still gotta get a Wii.

But then again you can never get enough.

Personally, I think all the comments from PS3 fanboys are more amusing than the video itself. 😄

ESB was correct... Nintendo was King of the holidays. Nintendo closed the 2006 year with 3.19 Million Wiis sold just shy of their goal of 4 million. Also the DS was king selling 10 million which equats to 9 per minute.
