He will probably change his mind (well his company will) when the Wii is selling like hotcakes.


Mike Gee of iZINE said, "...The Verve, as he [Richard Ashcroft] promised, had become the greatest band in the world. Most of the critics agreed with him. Most paid due homage. The Verve were no longer the question mark or the clich�. They were the statement and the definition."

The Wow factor lasted about an hour or two for me.
Followed by the feeling of "gezz..this is SOOOO right"

After which was the feeling of "Why wernt they doing this earlier?"

Wow factors never last long.

What the Wii gives is long-term satisfaction. Im still playing WiiSports once a day, even if its a quick session, I feel the *need* to play.

I thought GOD OF WAR was an IP of Sony... i didnt know it was made by 3rd Party...Smilie

I see all these people insulting the Nintendo corporation because of the lack of mature content. Yet there is something about Nintendo (at least their games) that strikes a certain unadulterated feeling of joy!!!  Pokemon Y - 1048-9263-5562

It's not made by a third party... Are SCEA employees not allowed to have blogs?
