White PS3 and a price cut?

Man I think sony may finally have it in the bag this time, the site Slickdeals, which has been right about price cuts in the past year, is predicting that the Ps3 may get another price cut to $299 on the 29th!

not only that but TheFeed heard from Game Industry biz that a ceramic white PS3 may hit the US.

if Sony keeps this up, who know what it'll happen... PS3 may acctually win the console wars.

according to the live activity for the week of january 14th, CoD4 was in the tops actually out numbering the legendary Halo 3.

Thats something to look at there...

Its kind of funny, I have friends who own both and say that CoD4 defeats the purpuse of having Halo 3 period.

I havent played Halo 3 so i can't really say anything.

Resistance 2 - United we fall

If you dont get Gameinformer magazine, or unless you go to their website. You probably didnt't notice their cover story on the sequel to the launch title for the PS3. It was a good launch title much needed by Sony to get PS3's to sell but overall it was a very good game with solid gameplay and graphics.


Resistance 2 dosen't seem to disapoint, the screenshots provided in the cover story reveal great ditail in the character models. Gameplay and action from top-to-bottom was defenatly on the mind of Insomniac Games, as they seriously bumped up the numbers:

  • 60 player matches
  • 8 player co-op
  • (not one, but) 2 full campaing modes

Also stated in the cover story that they "want to break things up and include these monsterous bosses" plus with the addition of vehiacles such as a battle walker named "goliath" like the Dark walkers in UT3, it makes Resistance 2 look pretrty amazing.

Now the question here is still the same as it was over a year ago,

Is this the PS3's killer app?

Gameinformer thinks so quoting:

"One huge reason to own a Playstation 3"

Gameinformer.com and Gameinformer magazine


Otronicon Quickens


If you haven't checkout the Otrnoicon website yet, you probably havent heard of the Rock Band Modded drumset to the right.
As you might expect , yes they basically took of the pads from the set in the standard drums and put them in place of the drumheard for a real drum.
Now i dont know about you but I think this is pretty kick ass. Specialy those Rock Band drumers out there who's drums break easily.
Here are some of the consent form some of you out there will need to play M and T rated games:
*Be sure to check out our Otronicon v.3 coverage right here! You will see this and lots more!*

Rock Band Indivial Peripherals for sale?

Looks like the sale of the loved Rock Band Drum sets, guitars, and mics are going on sale late February early March, Gamestop says all this is coming out March 4th. Here are some of the prices:

360 Drumset - $79.99
360 Mic - $29.99
360 Wireless Fender Guitar - $79.99

Ps3 Drumset - $79.99
Ps3 Mic - $??.??
Ps3 Wireless Fender Guitar - $59.99

Looks like that Fender guitar is a little more expensive on the 360 side of Rock band. I couldn't find the Ps3 mic price again.

Gamestop's Coming soon

UPDATE: GH3 Guitars for Wii

At Gamestop.com's "Coming soon" List they have a Nyko "Wii Wireless Frontman guitar" for the Wii. These are the stand-alone wireless guitars we've been waiting for!

The only bad part is that they retail at $59.99 and its a 3rd party peripheral but it'll do.

Their is also one for PS3 and they ship March 17.

Video Reviews coming soon!!

I recently got my hands on a Panasonic camcorder but it had one problem, in was miniDV only. The Quality of the video's was great and it had an insane zoom and great quality while zoomed. The only way to get the videos of the tape ere to get a 4 pin firewire cable and thanks to Newegg i got one and the firewire card because my computer didnt have one. So expect some Video reviews on some games and maybe other vids of retarted crap coming soon!
