BREAKING NEWS!In an act of jealousy, Sony executives have ordered that a major Nintendo manufacturing facility be destroyed. The plant is leveled, lives are lost, and 1,000,000 Wii consoles and 5,000,000 Nintendo DS handhelds are nothing but ash, floating in the atmosphere. The potential for global environmental impacts is strong.The comes after a report that Sony's decisions made when designing their Playstation 3 console may cost them hundreds of millions of dollars, and severely criple the entire corporation for years to come. More on this story as we get the details.

you xbox360 fans are funny. Look, if xbox 360 wanted to win, it would open up Live as a free service, turn voice chat into a paid service, and remove gamerankings.One, voice chat improves, less asshats vying for gamerankings, and you will have something to answer Sony and Ninty's free matchmaking service.No one likes to pay for online multiplayer. No one.And Wii Sports is a helluva lot more killer app than Gears of War. I only bought mine cuz i saw a whole family play Wii Sports. And one of them hit the other in the head. I laughed for minutes! Brought it home and the family had a blast. PS3 and Xbox360 can't do that.

Take a look at the controller again. It is as functional as a dpad because it has the analog stick and enough buttons to do the job of other dpads. If you dislike mono-analog then just use a wavebird or classic controller.

you mean, 4 million consolesSony to ship 4 million PS3s by year-end, even as manufacturing yet to start<a class="user" href="http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20060822-7558.html">http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20060822-7558.html</a>Sony intends for things to be different when the PlayStation 3 is released on November 11 in Japan and November 16 in North America. When Sony announced the launch date and price for its next-generation console, it said that it would ship 4 million consoles by year end and another 2 million by March 31, 2007.Last week, we learned that manufacturing has yet to begin on the PS3. Despite that, and contrary to rumors that Sony plans to lower its aim on shipments, the company still plans to have 2 million PS3s available on November 11 and is sticking to its guns on the end-of-year target of 4 million consoles. In a statement, the company reiterated that it is "still on schedule to ship 2 million units for our mid-November 2006 launch and additional 2 million units by the end of the year for a total of 4 million units."
