Gaming culture was different back then. The Japanese market was different back then. It was all the rage to be able to play arcade quality (or better) games in the old days. It’s different now. Gaming is more mainstream, and $600 for a console doesn't fit right.

Anyone remember the early PSP advertisements with Sony flaunting the PSP in chic cosmopolitan locales with models of all types flossin' PSP's of many colors. What happened to all those colors? If I'm not mistaken, Sony has only released the black PSP in the U.S., while Japan got one extra...

I was really impressed with what Nintendo is doing with the DS. The fact that the DS Lite will hit the states soon and has at least another hundred or so games in development this year is very exciting. This kind of news has me hopeful that handheld gaming will really evolve and become a...

Some of those specs look a little dated, especially since the sheet claims a "Spring 2006" release for the PS3. Regardless of the spec sheet however, the Xbox360 came out of the E3 with a full head of steam whereas Sony seemed to stumble over themselves. I have never been more convinced that I...

Wait, isn't there a chance that the top developers at Nintendo will change their mind and decide to make their controllers recheargable or utilize lithium-ion batteries? I mean, when is the system being released? Is it very very soon? If the system is releasing in a couple of months then I...

I wonder if the original Golden Axe team will be working on the upcoming Golden Axe for the 360. I saw some very early renderings of the amazon character and it looked good, but it was only CG. The Sega Ages remake of Golden Axe for the PS2 was absolutely horrible. It was shameful on Sega's...

Judging from all the official Nintendo videos shown at E3, the Wii is really going to be targeted towards "everybody" and by no means the hardcore gamer. I saw mostly girls and even old people playing the Wii in all of Nintendo's promo videos. I doubt those two audiences blow tons of cash on...

I've been going around and checking all of the stores nearby (Gamestop, EB, Circuit City, Target) and none of them have the Metroid Prime: Hunters with the rumble pak included. When will it hit stores? Are any websites selling it? I totally want to get it if it comes with the rumble pak.

Nintendo and Mario fans will all rejoice that Super Mario Galaxy is at least a platform game and not some pathetic spin off attempt to make money, like a Super Mario Skateboarding or something equally ridiculous. The types of sports and activities that they are using the Mario universe for is...

Your punctuation is still all wrong.

Yeah, the Nintendo DS can do no wrong. SquareEnix's lineup alone is exciting with Final Fantasy III and Children of Mana in the works. The best thing about the upcoming DS releases is that many of them are great games that in previous years would never have made it out of Japan. I mean, the...

This was my sentiment exactly, but I wonder if it wouldn't be a good idea to wait until the PSP is only a $100 or less to get it for these two games. By then the next generation of PSP will be out and these games will be bargain priced. It's really hard to justify the purchase of a system just...

It's so great to see this classic controller available. Now Super Smash Brothers Brawl fans can buy the game without hesitation. It's also perfect for all those old school games that can be downloaded onto the Wii. The shoulder buttons look a bit strange though, they seem side-by-side. Maybe...

Hopefully these things flow in waves and we'll get a rush of (good) fighting games in future years. Japanese arcades have literally tons of fighting games popping up, many of which get released on PS2. These are only available as imports (of course). I remember seeing a Japanese gaming...

I saw a video of Cliffy B. playing Gears of War and it absolutely blew my socks off. It just looks plain fun to play, and the atmosphere is great. There was so little of this game shown since last E3 that I think many people who have not given a careful glance to Gears of War will do so. I...

Warhawk looked impossible to play with the whole "six degrees motion sensing" thing they have going with the PS3 controller. All the show floor videos showed guys wrestling with the controller just to avoid crashing into everything like a blind pilot. I have to admit, I would much rather have...

Yeah, didn't Sony create a false demand fiasco with the PSP? I remember that it GameStop and EB Games didn't have PSP's but that Target, K-Mart, Wal-Mart and other had plenty just sitting around. The other big problem is that Sony was touting the PS3 as the top dog of the next generation...

Very true, it's questionable as to how many games will actually be able to use the makeshift light gun. Regardless, Nintendo better include the plastic piece that connects the remote and analog stick to form the gun FOR FREE. It should be packed in with the console.

I was really surprised that Nintendo decided to get Solid Snake into the game. I guess Nintendo and Konami will have a strong relationship well into the next console generation. I wonder if Snake will now start making cameos in all sorts of different properties, sorta like the way Dante showed...

I think Capcom suggested that the upcoming Resident Evil for Wii would be different from the RE5 set to release for 360 and PS3. At least, with the graphics limitations, this is probably the case. I'd like to see Barry Burton again, he had a killer beard and a massive hand cannon. Wait...
