Rockstar's BULLY, a game Jack Thompson should really be supporting!

Coming from Rockstar's history or violent games...are they now making games to SILENCE their critics? Did they trick Jack Thompson and others by calling a game BULLY? In essence, the game PUSHES you to be a good student, earn a kiss from a girl, and stand up to Bullies.

The Console Circle of Life.

While reading about the various new consoles out on the market (or out soon), I've brought together an interesting theory which may or may not be the sign of things to come for Sony's new PS3.

While the PS3 is boasting a variety of hi-tech hardware from Bluetooth wireless technology to the new (somewhat talked about) Blu-ray drive, it may not be the winning formula to Sony's console war victory. After all, its not just the PS3 thats for sale its also the software that comes with it. So far, only limited footage of up-coming titles have been shown. Mostly sequels, these video sequences are merely an appetiser for what may lie ahead for Sony's ground-breaking console. Of course the games that are getting the most buzz are Playstation's more comfortable sellers. What I mean by this is that games such as EA's Fight Night and Konami's Metal Gear Solid series are all 'bankable' stars. These games are gauranteed to generate a lot of interest no matter what system they are on. They are Sony's ace up the sleeve so to speak.

Now if you think about what's been going on in the console market as of late you'll see that Microsoft are clearly trying to get their foot firmly wedged in the door. Nintendo are using typically Nintendo-like strategies for their approach and Sony seem to be using their image as a means to release their product whenever they like. Now in my opinion, Sony are falling into a dangerous pit that resembles much of what Nintendo landed in when they release the N64.

The SNES is arguably the best console ever created by Nintendo, thus Nintendo had to come up with something groundbreaking for their next-gen platform. Unfortunately they seemed to be far too stuck on their own rules and image that the console never really evolved. It was still impressive and sported a great design with superb in-house games and interesting controllers. The downside was that the console didn't manage to gain much 3rd party support mostly due to the fact that the games were still in cartridge form rather than CD like its PS1 and Dreamcast competitors. The system was beginning to rely too heavily on its own merits and not the ever-changing world of video games.

Now keeping all that in mind, Sony seems to be following a similar style. They are using a Blu-ray drive for all games and dvd's designed by Sony themselves, the buzz mostly consists of games that have previously featured in the PS2's library and this will now be the 3rd console which comes out under the Sony name. Is this just a coincidence but didn't the 3rd console to come out for Nintendo fall to its competitors due to similar symptoms?

It could be an interesting formula to how long a console's life lasts. Will the PS3 be the next top thing? Is it that the general interest in a console lasts 10 years and the consumer moves on? Or is it how fast you get your system out on the market? I suppose until the Revolution and the Playstation 3 are upon us we will just have to wait and see.

Teenage with Muscular Distrophy is robbed of his video games...

Ok granted its not the most interesting story of ALL time but the reason I picked this is because of the news SPIN on it. Because this child has MS it's WORSE to steal from him than a child without MS? Would the station be reporting this story if the kid DIDN'T have his condition?
