Reports are coming through thick and fast about Sony’s  Game division restructuring process. In other words a bunch of Sony employees are about to get the boot. Whilst they deny this has anything to do with the PS3 possibly not selling as expected it is hard to see a company firing it’s employees if it is doing as expected or …

April 18, 2007 - 18 years ago

It looks like the PSN is doing pretty well, they have just recorded 600 000 registrations and 3.7 million downloads… Not bad for something that has only been around for a couple of months.

By Gavin Mannion
April 18, 2007 - 18 years ago

Okay yet another comparison video between the PS3 and Xbox 360. This time it is the game F.E.A.R. This was originally developed for the Xbox 360 and then ported over to the PS3, we all know what that means. The PS3 version will look worse than the Xbox 360 version. However that is not the case this time. Both versions are near identical. Obviously since this is not …
