@ 49 & 50 — I very much doubt that they will do this. I think there is a much better plan down the pipe. There is no way they would do that people would be so angry. It didn’t even happen and you are already angry imagine if it did. I for one would dust off my 360 and sail away and I am sure it’s the same for a huge amount of people they cannot afford to lose. Say around september: The 80Gbs Ps3 becomes the 60 and there is no way they will sell the 60Gb ones even by then. The SCEE executive said by July and thats just 2.5 weeks out and I don’t see that happening. I will bet on and 80GB modle @ 499 alone with nothing. The bundle holding its 599 tag. But with one sweet addition to both packs–>September:

“Hori develops peripherals and accessories for gaming consoles such as the Sony PlayStation, Microsoft Xbox, and Nintendo products. Katana designs, manufactures, and in September 2007, will begin distributing peripherals for Sony PlayStation products in North America.

Could this be why the controller in the HAZE videos was blurred? As part of the new deal immersion gets to put their logs on the controller? Not only all up close shots of the controller blurred but at around 10 minutes in when the dev puts then controller down it moves towards his arm very fast.

A STORM IS BREWING — and damn it where is THE GETAWAY? GET DEMOS OUT AND KEEP PEOPLE INTERESTED. I HAD A HUGE ARGUMENT LAST NIGHT WITH SOME XBOTS(my cousins) I HANG OUT WITH AND MAN IT WAS HARD TO KEEP SAYING KILLZONE 2 AND HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO SHOW FOR IT. FOR THEM IT’S SIMPLE, “PS3 HAS NO GAMES, AND ALL THE MULTIPLATFORM STUFF LOOKS BETTER ON 360″. ONE OF THEM WAS ALL ABOUT PLAYING HIS OWN MUSIC WHEN HE GAMES AND THATS THE ONLY REASON THE HAD A 360. THAT I THINK WE CAN FIX WITH FIRMWARE RIGHT? COMING FORM A GUY THAT HAS GONE TROUGH 3 – 360s. PEOPLE LIKE A BROKEN SYSTEM MORE THEN A PS3? DEMO THE HOLIDAY LINE UP OR SOMETHING.

ITS TIME TO HUG THOSE THIRD PARTY GUYS AND STOP SAYING ITS UP TO THEM TO MAKE GAMES FOR US. JACK! THEY ARE OBVIOUSLY UNGREATFULL BASTARDS CONSIDERING ALL THE MONEY YOU GUYS MADE THEM IN THE PASS 2 GENERATIONS BUT THERE IS NO LOVE IN BUSINESS THEY NEED TO FEED THEIR FAMILIES. HOW DO YOU LOSE GTA? THAT ALONE WOULD HAVE SOLD MORE PS3 THEN YOU COULD EVER DREAM OF. — IS THE GETAWAY GOING TO BE BETTER? BE ABLE TO STEAL GTA FANS? SORRY FOR THE RANT BUT THAT’S WHAT I SEE AND THATS WHAT MANY OTHER FANS SEE. IT SEEMS LIKE YOU GUYS ARE BEING PASSIVE ABOUT LOSING THE THIRD PARTY. ITS NOT THAT YOU ARE NOT GETTING A LOT OF SUPPORT, ITS THAT YOU ARE GETTING CRAPPY SUPPORT. GAMES WILL SELL YOUR CONSOLE…GAMES! GAMES! GAMES! NOT MOVIES, AND NOT MUSIC

AS A FAN ALL I CAN SAY IS READ THESE FORUMS AND YOU WILL FIND EVERYTHING YOUR CUSTOMERS WANT. GRANTED SOME ARE NOT POSSIBLE BUT THIS PLACE IT YOUR EAR TO THE STREETS.

PS WHO EVER SIGNED NCSOFT GREAT JOB YOU DESERVE A RAISE, NOW GET COOKING ON EA(THEY ARE LOOKING TO SHED THE SEQUEL PIMP IMAGE SO ITS A GOOD TIME TO SCOOP SOME EXCLUSIVE IPs), UBISOFT(THEY ARE SO DAMN TALENTED), AND GET THE JAPANESE DEVELOPERS/PUBLISHERS BEHIND YOU AGAIN. ONE OTHER BIG PROBLEM IS LOSING THE LEAD DEVELOPMENT PLATFORM SPOT WITH DEVELOPERS. — I’VE SAID ENOUGH AND AM SURE WHAT I SAY WILL CHANGE NOTHING.
