I would have played MGO a lot more without that system for sure. It'd be great if they did patch it out but it would be pretty unlikely at this point.

The Prestige Edition? Where is it on Amazon.co.uk?

"As far as I know," he said, "this is completely exclusive."

As we've seen, that can mean anything. "This is completely exclusive...for now" or "This is completely exclusive until the agreement expires".

But whatever, I'm getting it on Xbox.

Sad. I love the look and sound of that hardware & integration. But - no Mac support, no Zunes in UK, no music marketplace on Xbox Zune marketplace. Baffling.

I'm not buying a Wii until the price reduces. To me it's not worth the current price, both interms of the number of Wii games I want and my perceived value of the hardware. However I'm also realistic and not expecting a price cut any time soon, so am content to wait it out.

Wouldn't 1080p on a 20" screen be kind of pointless?

It's quite different to the Ghostbusters scenario. Activision isn't going out of business like Atari Europe was (Atari in Europe having now announced it's closure). In that case SCEE stepped in to take over the publishing role to save it's release on their platforms. Unlike this case where it Microsoft appears to be trying to prevent it's release on other platforms.

My sentiments exactly.

Does the Kotaku post say the Trophy/Split Screen patch is still out today? No. So this is new news.

Exactly. Teasing with this stupid non-information is worse than not saying anything at all.
