NY game retail bills pass; retailers could face felony charges

May 31st 2007 7:07PM (Joystiq)
@Areo

For me, it's not so much the fact that there is a law preventing sale to minors, which I think all retailers should have an I.D. system down for, but it's the matter of the charge.

I could understand things like a fine, but four years in prison is nearing insanity.

It's so catchy! (Wii delight #003)

Wow, that sounds so much like Mario Paint, which is a very good thing; I feel there are few games (Let alone system menus) that have as catchy music as Mario Paint had, as well as could make. Well done Nintendo.

Weekly Webcomic Wrapup: Justice for All

Heh, none of above was the best, but I voted Fanboys, for some reason...

PS3 peripherals priced: $50 for a Sixaxis

Wow, Self-ownage Sony. Had to cling to the extra $10 to sell the controller now, didn't you? Sony, as small it may seem, $10 could have made the price of the PS3 that much less intimidating.

Major next-gen console news coming tonight [update 1]

In the words of a Mad TV "I know what you did last Christmas"; "I hope it's more hair yarn! :O"

j/k. In all honesty, I don't care where it comes from, I just hope it blows my mind!

Weekly Webcomic Wrapup: August 27 - September 2, 2006

4 of those are above the bar today, specificly Mac hall, VGcats, N-europe, and Fanboys online. Of course, the reason I mention fanboys is because I own and am a pretty big fan of two of the games in the last panel (Oddword: Stranger's Wrath, Psychonauts) and the punchline is good. As much as I want to vote for the other three, I've got to give the vote to N-europe. it's overall just a great joke. (although VGcats is a close second, making mac hall 3rd and Fanboys 4th in my book)

Newly designed PSP coming in 2007 [update 1]

Aug 30th 2006 1:06PM (Joystiq)
New PSP... Huh, for some reason I thought it wouldn't happen. The original PSP had potential, but it's killer was the fact that there wasn't as many quality games on it to the DS, let's say about 10 to the DS having about 15. This was mainly due to the lack of the second analog stick, since gameplay suffered in areas the the second analog could have saved.

The picture is obviously Photoshop, so I'll wait for official word from Sony before I go on about the second analog actually saving PSP 2 (Or whatever they are going to call it). It's possible Sony may not include it, so I'd rather wait for it to come out and see how it does before I start ranting on or for it.

Rumor: PS3 launching in black only?

After all that's usually happening at Sony, the possible lack of availible colors (emphasis on "possible") in Europe feels... Incredibly dull. Not much going on today, was there Joystiq?

Viva Pinata more like Muerte Pinata [update 1]

Let's not kid ourselves here, this game was only shown a little to early, while it's still alpha. I like to give games a chance until they are released, in which I let "professionals" play it and figure out if it's worth my $60 or not. Nothing should look as good as it does in the middle as well as in the end of any project, so we'll see how it turns out in the end. Although the game is a clear rip-off of Animal Crossing, only difference being you can actually hit other inhabitents with shovels.

Catching up with Kaz and the PS3 [update 1]

Aug 19th 2006 4:40PM (Joystiq)
Oh Sony, why did you go the path of SNK? Expensive system? Check. Wavering handheld? Check. Plus the games are rumored to be something between $60-$100. 60 may be fit with the 360 prices, but $100, even $80, is suicide. I'd expect the controller to be the same price as the PS2, but who knows? In fact, the furture of Sony as a major gaming company may not be certain in the coming decade.

Not to mention that they haven't started manufaturing PS3s yet. And I happen to remember when they said that, Kamalot, thanks for pointing that out.

And yet the PS3 taunts those with tight wallets with games like MGS4 and Assasin's Creed, both of which look absolutely fantastic. Of course, those with tight wallets probably don't own HD TVs.
