2008? Not exactly a good year for business. Unless that business was videogames – new  stats from NPD show that Americans spent an incredible $21 Billion on video game hardware, software and accessories. That’s an astounding increase of 19% over 2007’s figures. Gamers are apparently too busy tea-bagging downed Spartan foes, wiggling their bums pretending to hula-hoop or sneaking around …

It’s been almost a year since Toshiba threw in the towel for ill-fated HD-DVD. While sales of the Blu-Ray format have yet to reach the levels of current home video king DVD, market penetration (*chortle*) is on an incline.

I do not however rate his opinion highly when it comes to consumer electronics but he has made gazillions convincing people they need below par …

Once again, there is no Blu-Ray player coming for the Xbox 360

The Xbox 360 Blu-Ray rumour is back… and being denied once again. I don’t understand the point of this rumour to be honest, I like spreading rumours just as much as the rest of them (okay maybe more) but this one is pretty pointless. Yes adding a Blu-Ray player to the Xbox 360 will allow the fanboys to check an …

Will Sony keep Cell for Playstation 4?

By Gareth
October 2, 2008
in :  Gaming
10

  Reports out of Japan suggest that the Cell chip could be used to power Sony’s Playstation 4 console. Using Cell would help reduce development costs for Sony, which spent billions on R&D for the Playstation 3. In addition, the move would also help Sony bring the PS4 to market sooner, a plan both Microsoft and Nintendo seem to have. …
