It is bad enough already when one player dominates an emerging market, I don't have much optimism that it will be better if that player is Microsoft. I don't know if they have all the things need to...

THANK you. That is one of my pet peeves. Drives me right up a wall. :)

I'm always curious about always on voice control, can it tell the difference between a comment in a casual conversation and an order? I suppose the easiest thing to do would be to ignore people...

While it sounds impressive it only represents 5 to 10 triple A titles, basically it might not even cover the 15 titles they have already promised. A triple A game can cost anywhere between $50 and...

Could be worse, but it does raise some questions, and if Sony follows they will apply to them as well.


1) Second hand sellers will increase the price to consumers or cut the amount given in...

Unless Microsoft gets deals with TV providers and the needed hardware set up pretty damned pronto in every market they intended to sell in it won't just be Japan where the X-bone doesn't sell well....

I know a lot of people are looking forward to E3 hoping that Microsoft will prove it really takes gaming seriously, but I suspect the E3 presentation won't really be that different. It will have more...

The article in the OP talks about gamers using cloud computing to increase the power of the box. Give me a break, is that ever really going to happen? If you are going to stream game data wouldn't it...

IGN is also reporting that the new controller will not be compatible with existing headsets, even expensive ones due to the presence of a new proprietary data port, as part of an effort by MS to...

Microsoft had to know what kinds of questions where being asked, what rumors where circulating, and who their market was. By rights MS should have addressed those specific issues in a clear fashion,...

This is going to be a weird generation. Nintendo pretty much didn't bother to show up. Microsoft decided to go off to fight a war with Apple.

How much of the Xbox ONE is based on the fact Apple...

Well they certain told Apple what for.

Now if they'd actually come to the event with a game console it might have been interesting.

The tech behind Kinect has always been pretty slick, and it looks like they've improved it a great deal (how does it read heart beats?) but I'm still not entirely convinced it is a viable controller...

The whole presentation felt like Microsoft was really talking to Apple. Not Sony. Not Gamers. Less than 15 minutes out of an hour on games, everything else was how Siri should be applied to TV. It...

I haven't played P4 yet, though I have it. I just started Ni No Kuni though and while it is a bit grindy at times I'm enjoying it a great deal and looking forward to future rapid transport options....

Dishonored takes the multiple paths through a stage thing to insane levels. On a given stage you might be able to find a sewer and get under the target building, or swim around the back, or climb a...

Stylistically Human Revolution is a stunning game, the different color palettes for the different cities is very cool. The level of detail in the game is impressive, almost any computer terminal you...

1) In the solo campaign mode which I tried it allows you to jump from character to character at any time by holding the select button. It looks like characters don't earn experience when they aren't...

The demo includes two sections of the game, in the first you have access to the fuse weapons and have to get into a base through a set of ventilation tunnels. The game then jumps 15 minutes ahead and...

Any form of always connected DRM should be resisted just on general principle, regardless of whether or not you are a selfish bastard with the perfect internet service. Always on DRM sucks, it adds...

Seriously, EA doing a single platform exclusive triple A next gen release? I don't see it, especially in a world where the hardware is looking to be a similar as the next gen is starting to look. And...

Personally, every time I see this thing I wonder, what's the point? It might be amusing as stand alone ambient lighting or even for the tech demo aspects, but I can't see how it would improve gaming...

Just returned ALIENS: Colonial Marines to gamefly, horrible game, what a shame.

I'm a cyberpunk nut so I think I might already have this pre-ordered.
