Dark Sector Delayed
D3 announced yesterday that Dark Sector which was previously set for an end-of-the-year release has been pushed back to early 2008. They’re not remodeling, they’re not redesigning and they’re not improving… they’re waiting.
“The official word is that we did decide to take it out of a very crowded holiday season,” said Megan Korns, a D3 publicist.
Basically, there lots of games coming out this holiday season for Playstation 3 and they dont want to be overshadowed and want their game noticed, with is fair enough. As well as that, it’s probably fair to say that any Xbox 360 game coming out anywhere near this september is unlikely to be looked at with Halo 3 on the shelves.
$599 US dollars not looking so pricey after all
Research firm iSuppli, have looked into the cost of the components and overall expenses to make a Playstation 3 and a Xbox 360 Premium. Here’s the list of costs:
All prices are in US Dollars ($). As you can see, it costs much more to make a Playstation 3 than an Xbox 360, and look how much they retail for … Microsoft making a profit on each console they sell? Im glad Sony don’t price their products in the same way.
Metal Gear Solid 4 Coming to XBOX 360
“For months now, rumors have been circulating that Metal Gear Solid 4 would find its way to the Xbox 360, due to the PS3’s lackluster performance and dwindling third-party support. This is following revelations that other hotly-anticipated games and former PS3-exclusives, such as Assassin’s Creed and Devil May Cry 4, will also show up on the 360.
However, after months of rumor-mongering by various gaming sites, and even a mention in the Dec 06 issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly (page 51), a source at Konami (who wishes to remain anonymous) sent us some juicy details:
“Yes, in fact, we are working on putting Metal Gear Solid 4 on the Xbox 360 and PC, which should both come out roughly 6 months after the PS3 release. However, we’ve been working with Microsoft so the 360 and PC versions will both take advantage of Xbox Live and Games for Windows Live, with such features as achievements and the ability for 360 and PC owners to play against each other in multiplayer.
I’d love to give you some more details, but this is already pushing it. We are making the big announcement July 11th at this year’s E3, so you’ll just have to wait until then. Sorry!”
Yeah, so this is clearly an april fools. :P I thought it was worth a post anyway since alot of people have started believing it. xD
