Master Chief fully waxed with Fall Out Boy at Madame Tussauds Vegas

So which one is the wax figure?

Today in Joystiq: December 28, 2006

I own that same Tetris machine. But I wish I had the Joust too. It's nice to see there is still an arcade with some classics and not all redemption games.

Joystiq poll: Which video format will prevail?

Nov 17th 2006 6:43AM (Joystiq)
To #3 T-Bag,

I am getting a Wii, but I also have an Xbox 360 now. But to me my game system has nothing to do with the films that I watch. I would never watch a DVD (or HD-DVD or Blue-Ray) on a game console. I've seen too many worn out/burnt out consoles. If I'm going to burn out a DVD player, it will be a $30 Trutech one from Walmart. Also, I personally think the next gen for films should be a disc-less media, and more of a hard drive like an iPod.

(I just did something very weird and my previous comment went from #1 to #63. So some things aren't going to make much sense)

Joystiq poll: Which video format will prevail?

I choose DVD. I don't feel like rebuying my entire DVD collection in the next few years. Slightly better audio/video quality doesn't do anything for me. I'd rather see a huge push for better stories, characters, and concepts... if that makes any sense.

Hey Nintendo, make the switch to paper boxes permanent!

Ok then why don't we sell PS2 and 360 games in cardboard sleeves?

Rumor: Wal-Mart wii-ly concerned for the children

They have a Guitar Hero demo at my Wal-mart. How is that any different? You need to swing it upwards to get your bonus going and a Guitar Controller is a bit more dangerous than a Wii-mote.

Layered disc to stop next-gen format war?

I hate all of the new formats. By the time I get my DVD collection to where I want it to be, they'll change the standard format. Say Series 1 of a specific show just came out on DVD and the show goes for 6 seasons. And by Season 5 they just switch formats on me and I'll have to rebuy 1-4 on the new format, just to be able to watch them all. I see the point of switching from VHS to DVD. But not from DVD to a slightly better DVD.

Every iPod game reviewed

I'm not too into the idea of games on the iPod. I don't want to risk anything by constantly pushing the buttons. They already have enough longevity issues. I have no problem carrying my DS as well and playing much much better games.

Wii Sports to include tennis, baseball, golf, bowling, and boxing

I want to know why the graphics on this game even matter to anybody? You're swinging a stick at a ball. It's a fun light hearted introduction to the system presented in a simple style. It's not MLB Super-Realistic Baseball. Those types of games will come, and they can peacefully coexist with games like this.

Wii not supporting DVD playback

Sep 14th 2006 1:51PM (Joystiq)
I think this is a bad move for two reasons. Nintendo is trying so hard for the non-gamer and they want this to be something used every day by every member of the family. By having a DVD function included it would defitely help those two issues (which are so important to Nintendo).

I personally would not use my Wii to play DVDs. I've killed so many DVD players that I wouldn't take the chance. It would have been a nice addition, but it isn't important me. I do think it is important to that demographic that Nintendo is reaching towards. Moms and Dads will compare it to the other systems and think "Well one is also a DVD player, I should get that one". A lot of parents dont realize you can get a DVD player for $30 at Wal-mart, and a lot of others won't want to deal with the extra cables.
