2.40 includes hidden PSN Store upgrade

Jul 2nd 2008 6:25AM (Joystiq Playstation)
Hmm... See the problem here is the buying :S... I'm in a bit of a dilemma when it comes to the purchase of which, because where I currently reside, I can get the NTSC PS3 with no warranty, but cheaper or the PAL PS3, it's more expensive but has warranty. The real problem is, I'm moving to Canada for college and once the summer ends, it'll be my last year here. I want to be able to continue using my PS3 in Canada, and I don't mind waiting a whole year till I go to Canada to use Blu-Ray, but I have to at least for now, be able to purchase things from the PS Store, like SSHD and Pixel Junk, yadda yadda yadda. Does anyone else know if I can purchase US content from an EU PS3? How's the failure rate on the PS3, I heard that the Blu-Ray drive is failing for quite a few people.

Totally random and unrelated question, but I just have to know. If I have an EU PS3 can I access the US store and vice versa? I'm looking into buying a PS3 now because I only have a Wii and I'd like to step up my gaming fix a notch, or two for that matter :P and purchase a next-gen system and currently the PS3 is attracting me more. So can someone please help me with this. Also, if I have a US PS3 and I buy the EU Singstar, which Singstore will I access?

Rumor: More Xbox 360 price cut, 60GB 360 talk

Jun 30th 2008 4:52PM (Joystiq Xbox)
I only have a friggin' Wii, so the only thing keeping me from buying a PS3 is the price and the online and the RRoD as un common as it may have become is the only thing keeping me from a 360 because where I live, it's either a PAL with warranty or an NTSC with no warranty but around $100 cheaper! Plus, because NTSC games that come here are black-marketed, they're cheaper than PAL games. I really hope the Jasper comes soon so I can buy an NTSC 360 without worrying about the RRoD and that the Jasper will be the 60 GB so I can differentiate between it and the Falcon.

Wii Warm Up: Once, it was small

Jun 30th 2008 8:39AM (Joystiq Nintendo)
Hehe... I'm so sad that I don't own any of the other systems right now. I bought a Wii thinking it'll be enough but after playing Burnout Paradise at friends house yesterday, I'm just craving for more! It's funny how on PS3Fanboy they're going insane over the new 2.40 update and on 360 fanboy they always have some rumors going for the system but here, us Wii owners have to think about where we should place our next plastic mold! Wish I had more damn cash! I really want to play some more games and the Wii isn't enough at the moment...

Over 9.8 million served on PSN

Jun 27th 2008 1:08PM (Joystiq Playstation)
Wow! 9.8 million is an excellent number. XBL is currently at what? 12 million? Considering the differences in the user-base numbers, 9.8 million is an excellent number!

Guitar Hero: World Tour might be the game you always wanted

Jun 20th 2008 4:27AM (Joystiq Nintendo)
I read through all 4 pages, and this doesn't at all seem like it could be done on the Wii. Unless they have the worst graphics in existence but even then, the music creator seems too complex for this game. I love the Wii, I have one, but this doesn't seem like it's possible on the little white box.

Seems like I'm gonna be needing an Xbox 360 really soon. Lots of games I want on the system alrady, and this just helped me want one even more. They're not gonna say it yet, but as the game gets deeper into the development cycle, watch as more and more features get "tweaked" to accommodate for the Wii's weak points.

EA on Boom Blox's hardly booming sales
