Naughty Dog On PS3 In 3 Years

Naughty Dog is surveying the land with its chest stuck out, planning its worldwide conquest following the critically solid launch of Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. Where will things be in three years, someone asks (a child, maybe). Naughty Dog inhales deeply and ponders the questions. Somewhere off in the distance, wind chimes can be heard.

..., it's anybody's guess. At Naughty Dog, we're pretty sure we should be able to see leaps between games on the PS3 that are even bigger than they were on the PS2.
And then, as quickly as it came, Naughty Dog disappears into the horizon.

PS3: 10 More Years!


SCEA president, Jack Tretton, is standing by his console as a story in the LA Times reported that Sony confidently sold only about half as many units of PS3s in 2007 as the Nintendo Wii. Apparently, it doesn't matter if a million units weren't sold here or there because, as Tretton puts it, "We're into this for the next 10 years and beyond", implying that their commitment to the console is going to win out in the end.

Analyst: PS3 to Lead Eventually, 360 Close Behind, Wii Brutally Shunned

I hate analysts. They are industry charlatans, fortune tellers, spouting their "predictions," which are based on nothing more than projected lines. Their contribution to society? Flame wars, and for that, they deserve a post. More »

Control Video Games... With Your Brain!

"A computer controlled by the power of thought alone has been demonstrated at CEBIT in Germany." Woah. That's the lead-in to Cognitive Labs report on the "mental typewriter" (aka Berlin Brain-Computer Interface), a device that not only makes you look 8000% dorkier, but will let you control your video games and entertainment devices with pure thought. It could also allow the paralyzed control computers and let amputees control artificial limbs, but the real news is that we can finally dump those crappy Wavebirds! More »

Poll: Download or Actual Games

Eurogamer, via GamesIndustry, reports that EA important dude Dr. Jens Uwe Intat says the future will bring a continuous pipeline of downloadable games. Ten years from now (sometime after we get those overdue Hoverboards from Back to the Future 2) gamers won't necessarily be buying the latest titles at actual shops, but downloading. "All entertainment media will be downloaded to a device," says Intat. Certainly, this isn't much of a revelation. It's not a revelation in the least. However, bigwig Intat also stated that there will be physical product in stores for a long time. Which brings us to an interesting question: More »
