Hands-on: Netflix on PS3 {Joystiq}
Nov 6th 2009 4:57PM I just gave it a try and it works well. Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves is in 720p according to my HDTV.
The experience is definitely slower than on Xbox 360. That and having to use the disc means I'll stick with using it on 360. I got the disc because it was free and I wanted to see how it worked. For people that only have the PS3, it works pretty very well.
God of War III Ultimate Edition to rip apart your wallet {Joystiq}
Oct 30th 2009 11:20AM I want God of War 3, but I don't want that box in my house. I'll stick with the $60 version.
'Splosion Man Avatar awards unlocked; delicious steaks to be distributed {Joystiq}
Oct 27th 2009 1:05PM I went into Splosion Man this morning to get my shirt. I didn't play multiplayer, due to lag, so I didn't get the second shirt.
PAL PSA: Black Wii bundle now available for pre-order, discounted in UK {Joystiq}
Oct 27th 2009 12:28PM Is there a way to transfer DLC between Wii consoles? Say I wanted to waste some money replacing my white one for this new fancy black one. Can I use the Virtual Console games I've bought on the new console?
Gamasutra breaks down console sales in light of price cuts {Joystiq}
Oct 27th 2009 10:57AM I'll be contributing to console sales in November. I'm picking up the MW2 Xbox 360 bundle. This will be the third 360 I've bought. I bought the second one for HDMI, which made integrating into my home entertainment system much easier.
I geeked out when the slim PS3 came out. I want the new thing, but I've got an original 60 GB PS3. So, if I went slim, I'd give up PS2 back compat, 2 USB ports and the card readers. Not that I use any of them a ton.
PSA: Best Buy's 'buy 2, get the 3rd game free' sale starts today {Joystiq}
Oct 25th 2009 10:51AM I'm contemplating doing this. I didn't really have 3 games that I wanted to own. I'm buying Forza 3 for sure this week. Like half my 360 friends list are playing Borderland. So, I'm now wanting to buy that kinda. Then I played the Ratchet & Clank PS3 demo last night and want that.
Borderland and Ratchet were going to be rentals for me, but now it's got me thinking with this buy 2, get 1 free deal.
Plus, I should be getting Uncharted 2 from Gamefly Monday or Tuesday and I'm right in the middle of Godfather II. I really don't think I need 3 new games right now. By the time I get to them, they might only be $40 new. :-)
Retailers list Modern Warfare 2 bundle for November 10 [update] {Joystiq}
Oct 18th 2009 8:13PM Amazon has had the date listed, with release date delivery, since the day the bundle was announced. I know because I ordered it 1 minute after hearing about it.
This news is as old as the bundle's announcement.
GamePro shutters BlogFaction websites, focusing on GamePro.com {Joystiq}
Oct 16th 2009 11:22PM I've never heard of blog faction. I've heard of GamePro the magazine, but I don't remember ever being to their website.
I liked John Davison on the 1up podcasts. I never really went to whattheyplay.com, but maybe I'll have to go to gamepro.com sometime.
Activision: Guitar Hero 5 launch 'probably' franchise's best, DLC sales getting 'interesting' [update 2] {Joystiq}
Oct 14th 2009 5:06PM I'm just the opposite. I hated the setlist in World Tour. I didn't even finish the career and I've finished the careers in all plastic guitar games.
Funny thing is just this morning I was comparing achievements with someone on my friends list. I noticed he had finished the career. A year ago, I only played the games on medium. I now play on hard/expert, which makes the games more fun for me. Maybe I'll enjoy the game more on a harder difficulty??
Activision: DJ Hero's 'diversity' key in attracting 'Hero' newcomers {Joystiq}
Oct 14th 2009 3:30PM I've had the game on preorder for months. I played the 3 song demo at Best Buy over the weekend and loved. I upgraded the version I'm getting to Renegade. Next to Modern Warfare 2, this is my most anticipated game this fall.
