The Network is free, the upcoming VidZone will be free, and Sony really likes the idea of providing free services for their PlayStation products. So do we.

PS3 owners are getting the game late, but they're also getting a horde of extra stuff, including the DLC...and 2K doesn't plan to bring it to the 360.

It seems Versus XIII will be "more traditional;" the combat may be real-time, but the "exploring and storytelling" will be like FFVII or FFVIII.

Yesterday's Network maintenance still remains a mystery, but we do know Konami used the time to update their MGO servers. Details inside.

What, you thought all that jiggling was incidental? You think Namco didn't have a plan? Oh, they do, and they're pushing it even more with the new DLC.

Still thinking Blizzard might bring World of Warcraft to consoles? While they "don't have anything against consoles," the answer to that is still "No."

With little or no fanfare, it seems a new PS2 model has started to ship to retailers. It's slightly smaller and slightly less expensive... The PS2 never dies!

Okay, no more updates until this thing is resolved: the two sides are taking the buyout talks behind closed doors until they reach a mutual agreement.

Why pay a publisher a gazillion dollars to keep a game off a competing platform? Just work closely with the developers and an exclusive deal could happen.

Ryan Payton was a very big part of the Kojima Productions team, and they're definitely going to miss him. Sadly, Payton has decided to move on.

It may not be as popular as car racing, but motorcycle racing is extraordinarily intense, and Capcom may have a big winner prepared for October.

The PlayStation Network is coming down for maintenance today, but why? Some believe it may be related to PlayStation Life or the Home beta.

As expected, FFVII decimated the competition in Round 1 and will likely do it again in Round 2. But the final qualifier squeaked in by only 2 votes, and it'll be a battle for the Silver and Bronze medals!

As politely as possible, I ask Valve to step forward and join us in THIS era, I think people misunderstand Heavy Rain's purpose, and MGS4 is teh COOL.
