Yo

Hey guys. Not much amazing news over the past few days, so we didn't update.

Oh, and FYI, Joel is an Apple hater. You might of guessed from his iPhone post.

Onto the news.

Handheld XBox, and Re-Designed PSP may be featured @ E3.

Ooh. A news site called NZ Hearald (a paper over in New Zealand) have reported a few things that are supposedly appearing in E3 this year.

1. Price drops for consoles

Yum! This sounds good, seeing as the PS3 is gone down all ready - hopefully the other companys will follow.

2. A handheld Xbox machine

Well, Sony have the PSP, Nintendo have the DS, makes sence for Mocrosoft to come out with a "Handheld XBox machine"

3. The debut of PlayStation Home and a public beta announcement

Oh yeah, this does look sweet. If you haven't seen home, looky here

4. A re-designed PSP

Oh noes. This PSP will allmost definetly have a changed motherboard, to stop homebrew.

5. The Wii gets a hard drive

About time! It needs it! It has 512 MB of embedded memory, and heck, it goes fast. Seeing as you HAVE to have VC games on the internal memory, each ROM must be about 10mb each, and each save around 5mb, then you have all the OS on it. Do the maths kids.

The Lumines Downgrader has been patched

Sales of lumines have been through the roof lately because of the downgrader, but it seems Sony /Q Entertainment / Bandai / Ubisoft have crushed it allready.



Well, in Japan anyway.

New PS3 and Price Cut for 60gb Model

Woo Hoo!

Despite denials, Sony has made official the new $499 price point for the PlayStation 3 that we've started to see appear in retailers across the US. The 60GB model's new price point will indeed be $499, with a new 80GB model going on sale for $599 in the US and Canada in August. As a small bonus, the 80GB version will include a "free" copy of MotorStorm. So there ya' have it kids: in one quick swoop, Sony has made the PS3's price a whole lot more competitive.

Hells yeah! The 60 GB PS3 is now $499, and the 80 GB PS3 is coming in August at $599.


G'bye.
