A representative of EA Games has come out and stated that they are currently giving preferential treatment to the Xbox 360 version of its games.

Big titles like Blood Diamond and 300 get stripped of their extras on DVD so that HD-DVD and Blu-ray get that advantage. We aren?t getting much additional value anymore, …
So the Euro price drop has now been announced and the obvious question now is “What about us?”… The price in the UK (who we seem to follow most closely) for a premium model has dropped from 279.99 to 249.99 which is just under a 10% drop… So we should be expecting the Premium to come in at around R3200 and the core …

It has been confirmed that Ninja Gaiden 2 will be displayed to the public for the first  time at the Tokyo Game Show. It has also been confirmed that it will appear on the Xbox 360 (which was expected) but we are still awaiting confirmation on whether it will come to the PS3 or not.

Well, we’re pretty much a week away from the launch of the new Elites here in SA but I don’t think it’ll be all that frenzied with the news of the Pro also sporting an HDMI port.
