On the latest Player One Podcast episode, CJ, Greg and Phil discussed the news that Joe Rybicki, in his review for PS3′s Warhawk, noted if the price of the PSN version was above $30 to drop the review score one point. This turned into a debate about whether game reviewers should factor a game’s pricepoint [...]

E3 2007: The Microsoft Press Event
After all the hoopla surrounding the death and rebirth of the Electronics Entertainment Expo, pulled from Heaven back to Hell on Earth like Buffy in Season 6 (had to put that Whedon reference there), it’s finally here. And after watching Microsoft’s press event last night, I’m betting there are some in Redmond who probably wished [...]
XBL Eating Crow
Yup, Heavy Weapon is worth your money. And with the recent announcement of the reduced-price Lumines Live! content packs to salvage that game from the hell of damning gamers, it appears as if XBLA management is eating crow on their earlier plans of profiting from the ill-informed. You know what? It might just work – [...]
A Strange Thing Happened on the Way to the Marketplace
Yesterday I vented my frustrations regarding the Xbox Live Video Marketplace and the woefully inadequate hard drive, specifically around my experiences downloading Superman Returns in HD. Well, in perusing the available content I noticed Superman Returns is no longer offered in HD, only SD. I don’t think this has as much to do with the [...]

For example, I watched Superman Returns in HD over the New Year’s weekend. Quick movie review: it was better than I expected, but worse than I [...]
The Xbox 360 Ate My Quarter
Let me start by saying I am a huge proponent of the Xbox Live Video Marketplace. I’ve said it needed to be done, and I applauded it when it was formally announced. I’m also an early adopter of the service, renting V for Vendetta on day one of the service. And then reality set in. [...]
This Space For Rent – The Xbox 360 Hard Drive
It has been recently announced the brilliant move by Microsoft to provide digital distribution of television and motion picture content to the Xbox 360. Now, I love it when I’m right, but in all modesty I was only half right. I had mentioned nearly a year ago that in order for Microsoft to win in [...]
Giving Credit Where Credit Is Due
As I had mentioned in previous posts [ 1 , 2 ], I was a little unhappy with Microsoft’s Xbox Live performance on Tuesday. Rightfully so, as it was basically broken by the influx of users downloading E3 videos. Well, yesterday, they must have asked Uncle Bill for an advance on their allowance to buy [...]
