In just a few short hours, PAX 2008 will be but a distant, awesome memory. Next week, we’ll be posting the interviews we shot (featuring the questions you asked) with Insomniac, Sucker Punch, and Hothead Games. We’ll also shed a little more light on the gameplay of Resistance Retribution for PSP, and recap today’s Blog Reader Meet-up (spoiler: it was awesome).
PAX isn’t really a “news generator” in the way E3 and Leipzig were, but if you read anything you’d like to share with the class, link out below.
In the meantime, I hope you have a good, relaxing Labor Day (if applicable). See you Tuesday.

Yes is a pain… my ps3 was broke the day before the beta of MGO and came my ps3 the next week the beta was over… I was really angry but sony have a good customer service in my point of view. I have the 60gb one (well 250 really now) but I don’t care for ps2 games really.
When will we hear more about Fat Princess? I think it’s stupid how those super-feminist semi-nazis react to that game’s name, calling it offensive while using foul language and giving the middle finger….no respect from me to those types…
I want to play it!!! But it’s next spring, right? I bet it will have trophies too…Yay!
The Resistance 2 LE covers look really bad. First 2 are Gears of War and Halo ripoffs and the third is a Fable ripoff.
Congratulation to Grace Chen’s son. POS for everyone.
Hey Jeff did you happen to buy one of them Pac MAn hats at PAX? if so any chance of finding out where us regulars can buy em. They were sick looking.
How accurate is this list Jeff:

I’d like to comment about Disgaea 3… Its a disgrace! Read the IGN review and most of all the summery and you’ll understand “why”. Graphics are so far outdated its a disgrace to the powerful machine. 2D graphics isn’t bad at all, but at least show them in HD! Sound is like Mono and the formula of the game is really something “you’ve-already-seen-before”.
My faith and most of all interest in Japanese developed games drop instantly and my respect for Western devs like Naughty Dog and Media Molecule rise more and more.
Why don’t you talk about what we read on neogaf about SOCOM and his poor graphics designed by Slantsix??Why are Slantsix working on PS3?How SONY can approve what they do on PS3?I’m disappointed about the screens we see on internet…
did u read anything on life with playstation or a new update. look i am not trying to start anything but its just blows my mind how such a big corp can handle business the way they do its just them comsumers are being suckered on a daily basis and we accept it well i dont and never did i always speak my mind especially when i know that without consumers their is no company. so here it is the other console just had a excellent price drop with there overhaul dropping this fall(noticed they never gave a specific date)and sony still with their tail btwn there legs its going to be and interesting quarter. fall starts sept 21 i believe and goes on for a couple of months so who knows when they will put it out. it doesn’t matter whether the online is free i still paying the cable company. i am losing on line friends by the day because of this so in order to play with people i know i had to get the white box. to many set dates made and to many broken. don’t call me fanboy of anything i am not devoted to any console but if the other is better at this point then thats where i will be.
p.s.
pressure the developers to put trophies and in-game music grow a backbone would u please
