By Gavin Mannion
September 6, 2007 - 18 years ago

I can’t find anymore information to back this up but apparently if you accept the latest BioShock patch you will start to suffer massive framerate issues. Which will render the game virtually unplayable. To get around this they say you need to clear the cache by going into the system blade, highlighting the hard drive. Push Y for maintenance and …

Homer loves the 360

By Gavin Mannion
September 6, 2007 - 18 years ago

I for one love the Simpsons and in true Simpsons fashion they are being different and are using a different picture for each platform of their upcoming game. It really is a fantastic idea I think but already it is causing a bit of controversy. Xbox360Fanboy.com has noticed that Homer is actually only happy when he is on the cover …

Firmware update 1.92 breaks the PS3

By Gavin Mannion
September 6, 2007 - 18 years ago

Oh no Sony… It is being reported that after updating to version 1.92 a whole bunch of PS3’s can no longer connect to the PlayStation network. What makes me worry though is if you can no longer connect to the network how are you going to download the next update? This is a prime example of why I disagree with multiple smaller updates, the more often you update the …

By Gavin Mannion
September 5, 2007 - 18 years ago

In yet another amazing insight, analysts are expecting the 80GB PS3 to drop to $499 when the 60GB fire sale is over. I personally can’t see how they cannot drop this price as they general consumer is not going to be impressed when he sees a PS3 price increase. Hopefully though this means we may also be lucky enough to …

XBLA Versus PSN

By Gavin Mannion
September 5, 2007 - 18 years ago

Gamingtarget.com has put together an article investigating the quality and quantity of exclusive original downloadable content. The Wii is not counted as all of its downloadable games have been released on home consoles before… So it becomes a battle between Xbox 360 and PS3… To jog your memory do you remember Peter Dille of Sony saying Whereas our competition takes a …

Rumor: Xbox 360 Fall Update to Bring Parental Timer

By Gavin Mannion
September 5, 2007 - 18 years ago

Awesome so we are going to be getting a parental timer… well what is it? We all know about the parental controls on the Xbox 360 that give the parents the ability to not play any games over a certain rating. So if you don’t want little Johnny playing Gears of War you just set the parental rating to that level. Well stopping him playing GOW …

EGM Says Killzone 2 is dumb

By Gavin Mannion
September 5, 2007 - 18 years ago

EGM has reviewed Halo 3 and Killzone 2 side by side and have ended up not being very nice to Killzone. However I do think it is a bit unfair comparing a game that has just gone gold to a game that hasn’t even had a demo released yet. That being said however this is not the first time that …

You can't use the word 'Linux' on XBox Live

September 4, 2007 - 18 years ago

This was kinda funny. I’ll just post exactly what was said: I love Linux and the XBOX 360, so yesterday I tried to include the word “LINUX” in the motto section on XBOX Live. I was stunned when I got a message saying “Your motto contains inappropriate language. Please try again”. Come on Microsoft is that really inappropriate? Maybe only …

It is being rumoured that we will be seeing Dead Rising 2 show its face at the Tokyo Game Show later this month. Hopefully with a much improved save system as well. Also being rumoured is that the PS3 is going to be graced with the presence of Dead Rising 2 and possibly Lost Planet. Hey it’s only fair after …

September 4, 2007 - 18 years ago

Someone at SCEE (Sony Computer Entertainment Europe) is in trouble today… They have been updating the Halo entry on Wikipedia and added in “Halo 3 wont look any better than Halo 2” Not really to serious but when the IP was traced it ended up back at SCEE Liverpool Studios. It is most probably the work of a bored office …
