Vote for next session

The next market session will close:

David Reeves (president SCEE) tells customers to steal from Sony. This is what it looks like, here are his exact words: “We are a PAL market and we are going to do it in PAL and we are going to do it properly, you can wait for it and you can have it in good quality, you know you can get the stuff from Bittorrent if you want to and download PSP games, it’s up to you.” You can listen to it on this podcast.
Are Rare going to deliver value to Microsoft at long last? This list of 10 rumoured Xbox 360 titles would definitely give Microsoft a whole pile of USPs if it is true. What is for sure is that this generation of console wars has turned out to be the most interesting by far, with many twists and turns.
Oh the hypocrisy of the world. EIDOS roll out a new Tomb Raider “model” and the press, including the respected BBC (in technology!), fall over themselves in reporting it. A completely different reaction to Tera Patrick’s involvement in games. Judgemental or what? Alison Carroll, a 23 year-old gymnast, just serves as eye candy yet EIDOS come up with some amazing spin: “Tomb Raider: Underworld depicts Lara as we have never seen her before with movements and skills reminiscent of a highly skilled gymnast. Sharing Lara’s strength and grace, Alison is an experienced competitive gymnast who has performed and competed across the globe.” Basically tits sell games.
BAFTA awards for games to reappear. A pity, it was such good news when they went. Firstly there are already enough different games awards so this is just confusing people.
