By Gavin Mannion
July 14, 2007 - 18 years ago

The Xbox 360 rumours will not die. After everyones dissapointment of not receiving one at E3 it is now being reported that we are going to get one on the 1st of August. According to a Canadian retailer there is going to be a $100 price cut on every model and the core is going to get a memory card bundled in. This would mean the 360 would then …

Update on Xbox 360 design failures

By Gavin Mannion
July 14, 2007 - 18 years ago

So it looks like my previous report on all the 360’s manufactured having a design issue seems to have hit a nerve. A large majority of people have claimed that I am just making things up and not reading the source properly, there was a great chance of that happening as it was just a quick article that I sent …

Peter Dille: Xbox 360 Not Sustainable

By Gavin Mannion
July 13, 2007 - 18 years ago

So it seem the minor success that Sony endured because of E3 has completely gone to their head. The new vice president of marketing has given an interview to Gamasutra and the corporate arrogance is as strong as ever. With the Xbox 360 you’ve got an inconsistent design, some have a hard drive, some don’t, and none of them have …

MSNBC has a report today about how HD-DVD is winning the battle in Europe. The obviously unbiased HD DVD promotional group has stated that they have 74% of the market share in the major European markets for stand alone players. The last part is what really gives it away though, they have not taken into consideration any PS3 sales and …

By Gavin Mannion
July 13, 2007 - 18 years ago

So it looks like Sony has not learnt their lesson at all. Not days after finally announcing a price cut and getting everyones hopes up that Sony are finally listening to the consumers it has come out that they in fact have not. According to SCEE president David Reeves all that Sony America are doing is getting rid of excess …

July 13, 2007 - 18 years ago

Not Good, it is being reported that Robbie Bach admitted to the media in a conference call that all Xbox 360’s have a design fault which may cause them to fail. That would be every single one of them, so that little white box in your lounge that hasn’t given you a day of trouble is really just a ticking …

By Gavin Mannion
July 13, 2007 - 18 years ago

The developers from Codemasters have given a very frank interview about the upcoming release of DiRT on the PS3. They claim the PS3 version is much better than either the Xbox 360 or PC version. It has better graphics and sound and generally plays better. Personally he sounds a little bit like a fanboy but maybe that is just me. …

Cliffy B is one of the oddest people in the gaming industry… He got cornered at a Games for Windows event and was obliging enough to answer a few questions….

So we are not getting a PS3 price cut… but don’t worry it’s not all bad news. Instead of cutting the price so that we can get a cheap Blu-Ray player Sony has decided to bundle more into the package for the same price. Now instead of getting a PS3 and controller for R6400 you are going to get a …
