Nikko Citigroup upgraded its rating on Sony this morning in anticipation of it breaking even on PS3 costs earlier than expected. At the moment, Sony sells the PS3 at a loss. The respected group of analysts is now earmarking August as the milestone month. Sony's CFO recently suggested that the move would occur in the second half of year -- a date analysts then pegged at November. No details behind the new upbeat expectations were provided by Nikko CG. However, it's safe to assume that the PS3's break-even event will be realized by a switch to a sub-65nm cell processor, sub-90nm RSX graphics chip, or both, since the smaller chips are less-costly to manufacturer.
Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
All signs point to price-cut.
I'm thinking the 299-349 range for the holidays.
Perfect for the Ps3,I am!
Ummm didn't they announce the cost of making a PS3 had dropped from $800 to $400 about 3 or 4 months ago? They said it had halved I remember distinctly.
I believe Sony could cut price any time they want and I think they should do it on the 28th of April, giving M$ just one day to panic and follow suit less the console war be decided in the next 10 weeks.
The PS3 shouldn't cost what it does to begin with... The numbers of consoles being sold now only tell me (note: I said ME, meaning it's not a fact, just MY opinion) that it would outsell the 360 if they had the same price.
yeh...I heard that as well...and also they sold a cell making factory to toshiba...so this article could probably be a little misinformed...
Edit: been looking on the internet, and found this to be true...sony could be moving to even smaller chips, as in below 65, and that could mean the ps3 being even cheaper...I reckon this is around LBP time, to get in the families, leading up to chrismas...it might just be the must have item for chrismas...
