Today in Joystiq: November 16, 2007 {Joystiq}
Nov 17th 2007 6:02AM You scumbags don't deserve a cake for all your PS3 negativity, and fueling PS3 hate.
Unreal Tournament III can install 3.5GB worth of data {Joystiq Playstation}
Nov 17th 2007 4:34AM @14 You forget, 360 load times on UT3 (when it finally arrives), will be much slower than the PS3 version. Despite the fudged stats that Microsoft posted, the PS3's Blu-ray drive on average is significantly faster than the 360's DVD drive (Microsoft purposely left out the CAV/CLV differences, and the fact the 360 drive is 8x on dual layer 9GB DVD media).
DVD Forum approves 51GB triple-layer HD DVD spec {Engadget}
Nov 16th 2007 11:58AM Indeed. Anyone wonder why Toshiba are deadly silent on the subject? Surely if all that was required was a firmware update, don't you think they will be shouting from the rooftops?
The sad fact is, nothing on the market today will play these 51GB discs, and the only reason they are around, is to make HD DVD look like it still has a chance.
This is Living: the European ad campaign continues {Joystiq Playstation}
Nov 16th 2007 11:41AM
Why o why, do Sony Europe still have these complete idiots in marketing working for them?
These adverts are no good, we need the adverts the US just got.
Now I am sure there are Sony marketing whores saying "these Euro ads are working, as sales of PS3 are strong in Europe, lets all have a pay rise".
WAKE UP CALL FOR SONY EUROPE:
The Euro sales would be even stronger, if you actually sold the console on it's abilities, and showed some gameplay. The US adverts are awesome, the European adverts are simply confusing.
Namco Bandai's 'Family Ski' compatible with Wii Balance Board {Joystiq}
Nov 16th 2007 7:53AM Looking at the previews, it's just a very poor cousin to Feel Ski on the PS3.
DVD Forum approves 51GB triple-layer HD DVD spec {Engadget}
Nov 16th 2007 6:29AM Anyone notice the implication that the current dual layer players won't be able to play the tripple layer discs??
Epic not starting on 360 UTIII until 2008 {Joystiq Xbox}
Nov 16th 2007 6:09AM I reckon late 2008 at best.
Oh dear...
European HD DVD Group talks attach rate numbers {Engadget HD}
Nov 13th 2007 9:39AM That's the worst advice I have ever read. Sounds like someone went down walmart and bought a $99 player, and now off of a sudden thinks he can win the war on his own little nws site!
FACT: Blu-ray is outselling HD DVD in media by a factor of 3:1, and has been outselling it for over a year now.
FACT: Vastly more Blu-ray players are on the market (6million Blu-ray vs 500,000 HD DVD)
FACT: Attach rates ON DEDICATED players, Blu-ray is better (if you are an idiot, and include PS3, it will obviously lower the movie attach rate).
European HD DVD Group talks attach rate numbers {Engadget HD}
Nov 13th 2007 9:33AM Those HD DVD guys are funny.
When it comes to players out there, they like to exclude PS3. Yet when they talk attach rates, they like to INCLUDE them.
Anyone that believes this PR, is a total idiot. That's OFFICIAL.
Uncharted demo is region "locked" {Joystiq Playstation}
Nov 8th 2007 6:37PM I find it hillarious people are blaming Sony. They were the ones who broke the licence agreement and faked accounts to get it, really puts all blame in THEIR court.
