As time goes on Sony’s grasp on exclusive titles seems to keep slipping. Announced just yesterday on Kotaku is Capcom’s Devil May Cry 4 is also coming to Xbox 360 and PC. While this is good news for all console owners it remains to be seen how this will affect Sony’s ability to sell their already “hard to sell” console. Also announced rumored today for the Xbox 360 are Warhammer: Mark of Chaos, Ace Combat 6 and Beautiful Katamari. All of these Namco games and all former exclusives. Can I get a “woo-hoo!”?

I saw it…
the abomination. I thought were headed in the right direction. We had made leaps and bounds on the design between Xbox and Xbox 360. My Three-Sixty is downright sexy. And Nintendo made a console looking GameCube, truly a sight too behold. But I was walking through Wal-Mart when I spotted a PlayStation 3 in the display case. My first thought was “there it is,” and then “how could you miss it!” It’s huge! Of course, there’s a PS2 in there also but sheesh!!! I can’t believe that thing. It looks like there should be a Wii and a 360 in there too. I am appalled. Video game consoles should look sexy, not like if they fell on your head you would be killed instantly. Which brings me to my next point… USE THE CONSOLE NEAR THE FLOOR. We have enough injuries stemming from this launch.. we don’t need any more.

Time says it all…
Time.com just published it’s top “5 Things That Went From Buzz to Bust” and guess who made.. that’s right! $ONY!!!
Here’s the best part:
The big story in computer games this year was HOW TO BLOW A HUGE LEAD, by Sony. Its PlayStation 2 was the champ in the last round of the console wars. This time Sony bet on a chip called the Cell and a disc format called Blu-ray. They’re probably awesome, but how would anybody know? The PS3 is hideously expensive–it goes for up to $600–and Sony manufactured only a piddling few hundred thousand for the U.S., fewer for Japan. Plus it’s hard to write games for; the launch titles were lame. You know you’re in trouble when you get beat by something called a Wii.
I am laughing so hard right now it hurts.. so just go read the rest yourself.
