Comments Off on Dave Matthews makes games?

Dave Matthews, Art lead for Lith, has announced that Project Origin has been delayed and is now tentatively scheduled for Q1 of 2009. While that news in itself sucks it is easily eclipsed by the breaking news that Dave Matthews is a games developer as well as a genius musician… or do you think it’s a different guy? In more …

Sony Wireless Keypad gets a price tag

By Nick De Bruyne

You may remember that last week Sony announced a wireless keypad add-on for their PS3 controller much like the keypad add-on that can be purchased for Xbox 360. I find it a really strange move from Sony to put the keypad above the controller though not to mention that I really think it bears a heavy resemblance to Darth Vaders ugly mug. Well, we finally have a price for it as it has popped up on Amazon.com. One thing that I really do question is the placement of the keypad as well as whether or not it should actually even be attached to the controller to begin with and its something that both Microsoft and Sony should look at. Pricing and more after the jump. I'm not entirely sure that below would be best. What I actually want to know is why none of the companies just release a small standalone keyboard roughly the size of a TV remote that can just be used when sitting on the couch. Does it really need to be attached to the controller? I think that it makes the controller less comfortable and really shifts as well as adds to the weight. Well, either way, the controller is set to release on November 30 of this year and will be 50 American smackeroos. That's quite rough for a keypad if you ask me and means that by the time it hits the shelves in South Africa we can realistically be looking at around R450 - R500.

How’s this for a rumour. Apparently Halo 4 is in development but not for the Xbox 360 and not by Bungie. According to OXM, that would be the same OXM that is the Official Xbox Magazine which gives this rumour a bit of backing. Bungie has already said they don’t want to do it and Gearbox not only has some …
