We've been looking forward to this one for quite some time, so hopefully it'll live up to expectations. Here's the full release list:
US Games
• SingStar ABBA
• Prince of Persia (free Limited Edition upgrade)
EU Games
• Prince of Persia
• Brain Challenge
Asian Games
• Brain Challenge
• Prince of Persia
• Pro Yakyuu Spirits 5 Kanzenban
• Saints Row 2
PS3 games are region free, so go ahead and import any games you fancy. Try to keep in mind, however, that DLC is always region locked. So your US game will only read content downloaded from the US PSN Store.
Finally, Prince of Persia has been confirmed to have DLC coming in the future. Release dates are constantly subject to change, so ch... More »

Sony and Blockbuster have some history together already. You may recall that Blockbuster was one of the first retailers in North America that they were going to be supporting Blu-ray on a much bigger scale than HD DVD. That announcement really got the ball rolling in Blu-ray's favor at the time.
Fast forward a year and we have Netflix signing streaming deals with every manufacturer they can find including an exclusive game console deal with Microsoft. Netflix has signed deals with TiVo Inc, Samsung, LG Electronics.
Now comes word from Blockbuster that, in the wake of their launch of Blockbuster OnDemand, they are actively seeking a partnership with Blu-ray player manufacturers. With Samsung and LG already in Netflix's corner, could this lead Blockbuster to seek out Sony as a... More »
The Jasper chipset is, essentially, supposed to be better in every way, this including the amount of power it requires. So it seems, any 360 made after October 23, 2008 should have the chipset.
My only question is: why the heck wouldn't this be advertised and on the box? I guess if they did that a lot of unsuspecting customers would have suddenly been suspecting, meaning less sales since launch. Still!

Sony’s chief executive in southern Europe, James Armstrong, revealed in a statement to Spanish newspaper El Financiero that we can expect the game to arrive (in Europe, at least) Christmas 2009.
Here’s the full translated quote: "For next year, the chief executive of Sony Computer Entertainment for southern Europe said that they are developing a new game thriller, in which the player may be designing their own history, and the new version of Gran Turismo, which will arrive at Christmas."
This would provide for a late summer release in Japan, and late fall/early winter releases in the United States and Europe. From a sales perspective, it would also provide the PlayStation fr... More »

But though the entry-level 80GB PlayStation 3 usually clocks in at nearly twice that last price — with “no plans” for a March price cut — a new Sony offer will put the PS3 in a very close third-place finish with its rivals. If you’re willing and able to sign up for the new Sony PlayStation credit card, you can get a PS3 shipped to your door for exactly $284.
While I would not advocate credit even if the US financial market wasn’t currently in death throes due to its mismanagem... More »

A glitch in the Nintendo Wii version of Tomb Raider: Underworld near enough prevents players from actually completing the game.
The glitch can be found near the end of the Coastal Thailand level. Luckily, Eidos is aware of this and has some solutions to the game completion preventing glitch as detailed on EidosGames.com.
Below is a video of it courtesy of campstuff92 via YouTube. The video's caption reads:
This is how you do the final room in the Thailand level of Tomb Raider Underworld for Wii.
I posted this video because a lot of people seem to have a glitch where the lever that opens the underwater door is not there, and a guide to where the lever would be.

To quote: The video games on this list kept me company through many an elementary-school sleepover at friends' houses, provided endless fodder for recess playground conversation and even inspired a few short stories from yours truly (each plot revolving around the fantasy of getting sucked inside a video game).
In honor of the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, I dedicate this list and to Shigeru Miyamoto and all the other folks at Nintendo who made all that fun possible... oh, and of course my beloved aunt Jean who sent me and my siblings our first NES console.

Collecting the power-up pellets and pimping out your little spaceship provided the irresistible hook. Once you got three rows of lasers firing, your robotic foes stood little chance.
