By Boswald
November 20, 2007 - 18 years ago

I am a proud owner of an XBOX 360. On the weekend I caved and bought myself the PS3 60GB version. This got me thinking, a lot of people say that the PS3 a lot more expensive than the XBOX. I did some simple calculations and I believe that the PS3 is actually cheaper than the XBOX. At the end …

November 20, 2007 - 18 years ago

It looks like the success of Xbox Live may be getting to Microsoft’s head. Robbie Bach has been talking about the service and comparing it to it’s rivals, he goes on to say..

South African Xbox Live issue in the media again

By Gavin Mannion
November 19, 2007 - 18 years ago

So it appears that I am famous today… A big thanks is owed to Ilse from News24 for following up with Microsoft about the lack of Xbox Live in South Africa. Unfortunately Microsoft’s response has once again fallen far short of what the gamers in South Africa would like to hear. However there is a slight light at the end …

Today seems like a nice quiet day again so here goes, The Orange Box as you well know actually consists of 5 games in total, 3 Half-Life …

How to fix AC frame rate issues – something is not right here

By Gavin Mannion
November 19, 2007 - 18 years ago

I stumbled across a posting this morning on how to fix the Assassin’s Creed framerate issues on the PS3. I find this quite disturbing to be honest. The entire reason I threw my PC in the bin and became a console gamer is because when I want to play a game I don’t want to worry about anything apart from putting a disc in the …

By Gavin Mannion
November 19, 2007 - 18 years ago

So Call of Duty 4  has been out for just over a week and has overtaken Gears of War in the Live activity list. Halo 3 is happily holding on to it’s number 1 spot, honestly I can only imagine that it is the Americans playing that since it has pretty much died in South Africa and by the looks of …

Now remember these only include 2 weeks of price cuts and don’t include the 40GB sales as that only got released in November. Nintendo Wii: 519K (5 million total) Microsoft …

Tech.co.uk has been gazing into their local crystal ball and have come up with what they expect the next Xbox which is expected to release in 2011 will be like. This would be much harder to do for the PlayStation or Nintendo as they don’t follow the standard PC architecture as Microsoft do. Anyway straight to the list… CPU/GPU – Integrated …

Why can Sony not stop bending the facts?

November 16, 2007 - 18 years ago

I wrote about Howard Stringer claiming that Sony sold 100 000 units in a week in the US a few days ago (View) and now Bloomberg are saying that they did in fact sell 100 000 units but that includes PS3, PS2 and PSP? So yes Howard did not lie but he does appear to have been fudging it a bit. When …
