By Gavin Mannion
November 8, 2007 - 18 years ago

A very strange story has appeared this morning about Sony pulling out of a development deal with IBM and Toshiba. We heard a few days ago that Sony had sold the rights to manufacture the Cell chip to Toshiba, however now it appears that Sony are completely wiping their hands of it. Sony had signed a contract to continue researching and developing …

American sales chart for the first week of November 2007

November 7, 2007 - 18 years ago

The 40GB PS3 was released in the US one day before these figures were closed off so I think it is safe to say that we can expect another spike next week. Living in deepest darkest Africa has kept us from experiencing a huge software event that happened in the USA last week. Guitar Hero III was released. Now to …

By Gavin Mannion
November 7, 2007 - 18 years ago

So I posted yesterday about Call of Duty 4 on the PS3 being delayed and then got slammed by a bunch of Americans… I mistakenly took the delay to be a worldwide one.

November 7, 2007 - 18 years ago

If like me you have very little interest in Japanese Role Playing Games (JRPG) then you most probably have not picked up a copy of Blue Dragon. I have read a bunch of reviews about it where the reviewer always goes about how great the game is and how it strongly follows the JRPG formula and all that, but to …

November 6, 2007 - 18 years ago

The latest Hi-Fi corporation flyer is out and has 2 suprises along with it. They have slashed R500 of the 40GB model and are selling it for R4479… but I thought it was R4500 normal price? I wonder if on the 1st of December we are going to be seeing the 40GB model selling for R5000 instead? This wouldn’t be the …
