Hi everyone,
After what seems like forever I finally was able to get a Wii. Now I know its been out for awhile and a lot of you guys have one. Heres my question, what in your opinion would be a great first game to get for my Wii. I want something that makes good use of the motion sensitivity of the wii controler. Right now I am looking at The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess & Metroid Prime: Coruption. They both look really good but let me hear what you guys think.What would be your first Wii game and why would you pick that one first. Thanks for all your input.
Later,
Keg
Think you paid too much for your Playstation 3? Don't expect any sympathy from Sony.
In the company's fiscal 2008 annual report, Sony revealed that they've now lost roughly $3.3 billion (that's billion with a B) on the Playstation 3 since its launch. That breaks down to $2.16 billion in 2007, followed by a notably smaller but equally daunting $1.16 billion loss in 2008.
The reason? Pricing the console below its production cost. That's right - that hefty $599 you paid for the PS3 back when it first launched was significantly cheaper than the cost of producing it in the first place, and while the retail price has come down some, the losses keep piling up.
Investors have reason to sweat. In a statement, Sony claimed "the large-scale investment required during the development and introductory period of a new gaming platform may not be fully recovered." They went on to note that they've invested a great deal of money into R&D for the console, a sum they might not be able to recoup if the PS3 "fails to achieve such favorable market penetration."
Sony fanboys should take heart, however. Losing money on hardware is relatively common in the video game biz, as companies routinely lower prices to sell more units and thus stimulate software sales. Sony's game division saw a 26% sales spike last quarter, a trend they expect will continue on the strength of strong exclusives like the recently released Metal Gear Solid 4 and the upcoming sequel Resistance 2.
But will it be enough?
Now that the excitement of GTA IV has come and gone what is the next title you are really looking forward to getting your hands on? What is about that game that is causing you to crave it?
I am awaiting Ninja Gaiden II, the game is looks like another stunning piece of gaming glee. The demo I've seen just make the game look simply fantasic, I can't wait to get my hands on it.
Hello all in the GameSpot community. I am going to go through all my contacts and clear out people I've been tracking who are not tracking me. I think the concept of tracking people works when its mutual, and I would rather read the blogs of people who are mutually interested in me as well. So if we're already friends, then friends we shall remain. If I'm just tracking you and the courtesy isn't being returned I will post you a message about it and then we'll either become mutually tracked or I'll remove you from the list of people I watch. Coolio?
