Media Molecule flickr reveals LittleBigPlanet patch info

"im really sick of this friday,saturday thing
they should save up some news for these days"

Then you'll get those pathetic losers that have to make some comment about how they saw said news item on another site 2 days earlier.

December NPD: PS3 sells 726k, 2008 sales up 40%

Jan 16th 2009 11:25AM (Joystiq Playstation)
I'd love to see a top 10 free of Wii shovelware to evaluate what the 2 consoles worth owning are doing.

SOE expects half its business to come from PS3

"No the other 50 percent is probably going to be from micro transactions they are doing now for games that have subscriptions"

And Sony expects microtransaction on which system? Think it through.

Home brings in $1m in virtual goods, user-generated content the 'goal'

Jan 9th 2009 12:23PM (Joystiq)
$1,000,000 in virtual goods? How about spending a little of that cash on mics, for the 90% that don't have/use them. Only then will Home have any real use for me.

Sony: PS3 'keeps entertainment simple,' 360 and Wii don't

Jan 9th 2009 8:56AM (Joystiq)
For a console that touts blu-ray, it doesn't even do HD out of the box. The buyer also has to find a practical method to charge their controllers, unless they want to sit 3 feet away from their 52" TV while charging up the controllers. Add a bluetooth headset to the basic start-up cost, and PS3 approaches $550 before it is comparable to the $300 Xbox 360. All this Sony spin is making me dizzy.

CoD 4: Over 10 million served, 2.8% survive 'Airplane' on veteran

NOT playing a video game is laziness? That's a new one on me. I'll update my dictionary.

I don't like single player shooters, so I didn't play the COD4 campaign, but I've completed W@W in co-op mode. The "laziness" of sitting on my ass, controller in hand, in front of a TV had nothing to do with it.

Scrabble is XBLA bound, Hasbro channel coming soon

Monopoly is an epic fail because of the lack of Live support, as mentioned, and the fact that you must play with 4 players at all times. Want to play a 3 player game with your friends? Too bad...we're making you include an AI player in the mix that doesn't understand the subjective values in negotiating properties. I bought and played this the day it came out, and haven't touched it since.

On topic...I think the Hasbro channel will be quite good, depending on pricing.

Xbox 360 sales reach 28M, Xbox Live garners 17M users

Jan 6th 2009 1:37PM (Joystiq)
I have 4 PSN accounts on one machine, and most of the people I know also create multiple region accounts. You can't really rely on PSN usage stats for that reason. To be honest, despite having 4 accounts I almost never game on PSN because of the lack of mic usage. Including an inexpensive mic with the console was genius on MS' part.

Xbox 360 'over-achieved' in Euro Christmas sales

Ahem...EMEA is fully explained in the article.

Xbox 360 'over-achieved' in Euro Christmas sales

Jan 5th 2009 4:53PM (Joystiq)
I've sent more PS3's back to Sony since March than I have 360's, despite owning 2 360's and having the first one for almost 3 years. That lame PS3fanboy mantra doesn't fly with me.
