So the worst kept secret in console gaming is now official, the Xbox 360 Elite will hit the shops on the 29th of April. Virtually all of the previous information we reported was true. The Xbox 360 Elite will be black, have a 120Gb HDD, come with a HDMI cable, it does not contain the 65nm chips and it does …
Brian Hastings is the Chief Creative Officer at Insomniac Games, he has decided to write a lengthy article on the 10 reasons why he believes the PS3 will win this console war. While I don’t agree with some of the things he says he makes some very valid points. I especially agree with him on the Hard Drive issue. Here …
So I was getting all happy that I could go home now and play some Gears of War on Live! to get over my sad attempt of quitting smoking. However Xbox Live! is down for routine maintenance today until 2pm Pacific Time. Whenever that is 🙂 Anyway Major Nelson has let us know that this is just routine maintenance and …
This is completely insane. This guy works for EA and gave us a little demo on how BBR is meant to be played. Completely blindfolded and he ends up getting a perfect score. I was never really interested in BBR but for some reason this video makes me want to give it a shot… How many times do you think …

I am not sure why Microsoft are still not confirming this Xbox 360 Elite? Now we have some manufacturing pictures released onto the internet. The photo is date stamped 14th of February so unless the time on the camera was set wrong these things have been manufactured for over a month now so they will have a decent stockpile when …
The PS3’s sales figures for PAL territories are slowly starting to come in and Sony are smiling all the way to the bank.

Wow, that is pretty much all I can say when I look at how fantastically Master Chief has been painted onto an Xbox 360. Jeremiah Thiring has airbrushed the entire console, no stickers or wraps, to the theme of halo 3. Hey has even given the two wireless controllers the Halo touch and all in all I think this is …
So the PS3 was finally released to the PAL territories last week Thursday. So what are the websites saying about the PAL Launch then? The most suprising thing for me was the fact that some Italian stores started selling the PS3 before Friday the 23rd against orders from Sony. I am sure Sony has not taken kindly to that but …
So those clever people over at GameTrailers.com have put together another comparison video for the console wars. This time is is Virtua Tennis 3. What is interesting about this one is that both versions of the game where made by completely different studios, so the fact that they end up virtually identical is amazing. I cannot tell the difference between …
