This is a nice change, instead of some analyst in an office predicting who is going to win the console war a company called MCV has gone out and canvassed 100 retailers to get their opinion.

There has been quite a bit of Internet noise about the fact that Telkom is currently running a Xbox 360 Arcade promotion. You pick up the Arcade with an extra controller but without the two retail games (PGR3 and DOA4) for R3007.99 or R108.75 per month.

So in the interests of fairness and transparency I will no longer be judging the comp. I will send through the top …
Howard Stringer has been kind enough to show us that Sony hasn’t lost its arrogance…. He has come out and said to the Guardian newspaper in the UK “The PlayStation 3 will come into its own because its [high-end games] are infinitely more fun, demanding and exciting,” Must be all those 4D graphics hey Ken Howard? I would like to …
There is a very strange story hitting the Internet this morning. Apparently a powered on Wii emits a high frequency sound which falls perfectly into the range that cockroaches find attractive…. Personally I think it is all nonsense as I am sure we would have heard something about Nintendo Wii’s being over run by cockroaches before now… But hey it’s …
