March 19, 2007 - 19 years ago

After hearing numerous rumours recently of an imminent price drop it seem our hoping was in vain.

March 19, 2007 - 19 years ago

The kind people over at GameTrailers.com have put up an ingame video comparing graphics between the PS3 and Xbox 360 in the latest Armored Core game. The trailer is a bit pixelated so the comparison is not completely fair to either side but the basics are there.
