    Anonymous Dev Claims Nintendo Unfamiliar with PSN and Xbox Live

    Oh, so you claim there are massive sales in Nintendo's store ? Otherwise there no point bring up Steam, is there ? You do realize that PSN have normal, browser based store as well, so I can buy games for Vita/PS3/PS4 without touching any of them ? Advice: just leave you PC on and you can...

    Anonymous Dev Claims Nintendo Unfamiliar with PSN and Xbox Live

    In USA. In Europe Ninny's prices are at lest 30-40% higher than i.e. SONY and while games for PSP/Vita/PS3 are getting cheaper and cheaper in time, Nintendo still wants 17 GBP for first Ace Attorney. It would make sense to buy games wherever I want, so that I can for example buy gift for...

    Anonymous Dev Claims Nintendo Unfamiliar with PSN and Xbox Live

    Last time I've checked it was full of region lock, had ancient payment system, ridiculous prices and no interface other than 3DS itself. Also about 2 months after I got mine DS the official Nintedo site in my country turned into smth like this...

    Anonymous Dev Claims Nintendo Unfamiliar with PSN and Xbox Live

    Like 'everything'. Nintendo is fine as hardware & software producer but as publisher and distributor they're somewhere around gameboy advanced era. You actually expect to ever get this kind of info with specified source ? :) You sign this kind of news and your career in IT is over. No...

    Anonymous Dev Claims Nintendo Unfamiliar with PSN and Xbox Live

    Nope it's the other way around. People give this guy some credit, because Nintendo IS OUT OF TOUCH with 21st century, so his story sounds valid.

    Anonymous Dev Claims Nintendo Unfamiliar with PSN and Xbox Live

    Don't be ridiculous, please. It's not about being a copy cat, it's about entering XXI century. No one expects full xbox live or Steam functionality on day1, but proper online distribution service is not that much of a challenge for company this size and yet Ninny has probably the worst out...

    Thief Trailer Asks, "Did You Miss Me?"

    Nobody has mentioned it, because it's probably attempt to tie this trailer with Deadly Shadows where: "What is locked can be opened, what is hidden can be found, what is yours can be mine" was used in trailer. 1) The bow is actually pretty good idea. Being all sneaky & stealthy with full...

    Ubisoft Says Gamers Are "Starving" for Next-Gen

    But of course it's design issues - hardware design issues. Even if you don't see the need of upgrade, I can assure you that significant part of production costs, bugs and other problems is based on PS3/Xbox360/PC compatibility issues. Next gen is probably all x64 based, so this problem is like...

    Indie Devs Aren't Happy With Steam Greenlight

    1) Greenlight filtering is unfinished at best, search results are full of games I'm nowhere to be interested in. 2) The fact that you can't see a progress the game you liked is making, isn't helping really. 3) Valve said it wants to make Linux alternative to MS Windows as PC gaming...

    Windows 8 Hits 100 Million Sales

    And they work where ? Apple tech support ? Seriously the amount of bs I'm reading, about how bad this system is, is just ridiculous. Sure, the start screen is still far from being perfect, but the OS itself is fast, stable and simply better than any of the MS OS was less than 1 year after it's...

    German Consumer Group Sues Valve

    Putting a label doesn't make it legal you know. If I put "use at your own risk" sign on a product, it won't stand up in court if somebody gets hurt using it.

    Electronic Arts Suffers $45 Million Loss

    Is it ? Lets think about it for a moment: don't ask "why EA bought them", but "why were they sold in the first place" ? There are several possibilities: 1) "magic" is gone, so lets turn what's left of it into the money. That means that the management lost interest in making games and "forcing...

    Electronic Arts Suffers $45 Million Loss

    Wallet ? Dude, be resonable. Half of these whiners are voting by "MOM, CAN I HAVE THIS ??", or are sitting in theirs parents basement, unemployed pretending to be cool on the net. I simply don't believe any true adult would speak such nonsense like 'hating EA'. Seriosly. You hate them...

    Microsoft Studios Exec Cautions Valve on Launching Hardware

    As much as I enjoy using Steam, what this guy said is actually true. Both Sony, MS had hardware distribution experience before releasing console and Ninny is on console market, since... like... forever. Don't know about US, but managing shipping to every single country in UE or Asia is not easy...

    Microsoft's IllumiRoom Brings Games Outside the TV

    Not really but I believe the idea is right and even if MS doesn't pull it off, than maybe other companies will bring better implementation as a high-end gamer accessory for example.
