KUTARAGI PROMISES MORE EXPENSIVE PS3!

WTF is he talking about?! Ken Kutaragi, yes, Ken "The Rag" Miyagi, has promised an "AV-centric PS3." So instead of buying a PS3 for gaming, it would be for enhanced audio and graphics capabilities instead. Obviously Ken mentioned that it would be a lot more expensive than the current PS3 which is damn expensive already. Speculation around the announcement is guessing at an expected price tag of about $2,500. The new PS3 would include a "power supply unit, anti-shake insulator, twice the main memory, and 2x HDMI to split sound and video output." Does Sony need more money to make up the more than generous hit each PS3 unit is causing them? Does Sony think quadrupling the price will solve their problems? Fuck it, let's make a Sony Porsche. But it doesn't drive, it just plays movies in 1080a. The 'a' stands for aggressive - if your friends buy anything less impressive then 1080 progressive Sony products, it drives over to their houses and pisses oil on their living room floor to short circuit the competition.

Why not release a $1 million dollar PS4 right ow, but only release 10 of them? That way when 10 rich bastards buy them they get to show off graphics the 360 can't compete with anytime soon, plus the extra 10 million helps cover the PS3 sales losses. Work with me Sony, I'm trying my hardest to help you out here. If I have to watch you make a $2,500 PS3 just to see another 16 year old pimp smashing-my-PS3 video a littler bit of the gamer inside me will die.

No software drought for Wii, pledges Fils-Aime

Big titles on the way next year

Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime has promised that the Wii will not suffer from a lack of software titles as other Nintendo consoles have done in the past.

Speaking to Newsweek, Fils-Aime highlighted three games - Zelda: Twilight Princess ("arguably the best game we've ever made"), Metroid Prime 3 and Super Mario Galaxy - as examples of key titles for the Wii.

He said that Metroid was down for a release "early in 2007", while Mario Galaxy will be "strategically" timed "to make sure that we continue driving momentum through 2007".

"How do I answer the question, "Will there be no drought," and "How will we make sure that there are fantastic titles for Wii?" The answer is Zelda, Metroid and Mario. Which is a pretty darn good lineup," Fils-Aime concluded.

When then asked if he'd repeat George Bush's infamous "read my lips" pledge to deliver games at a steady pace, the NoA president added, "I thought I just did."

Speaking to MTV News recently, Fils-Aime said that Metroid Prime 3: Corruption would be the next big first party title after WarioWare: Smooth Moves (January) and Mario Party 8 (March), while Mario Galaxy would arrive sometime between March and Christmas 2007.
