Tried the Killzone 3 campaign demo. Awesome stuff. The game looks and sounds fantastic. I'm really looking forward to grabbing this within the next couple of weeks.

Yeah I was very impressed with the demo. But I have no money so I will have to pass... oh wait...

I am not buying anything for a while still. But at least I will have a 360 this year and I will get to play Mass Effect 1.

wow Dead Island is back from the dead i thought it was canceled with  being nearly 2 years from the last time i heard about it

@aspro knowing modern japanese games it be something that wont make sense for the first play thro like suda 51 games

Maybe, but did you see that story from today? Development looks troubled.

Catherine is supposed to have a big spoiler.

Here is my speculation.  Since I have no insider info and have not played the game, what I am about to say is clearly not a spoiler.

I am betting Catherine turns out to be a dude, just based on a comment from one of the WAHP.jp guys said months ago about how lady/dudes are a big thing in Japanese media these days.  Also, it's a love triangle, there's obviously (from what we've seen going to be a murder), so I think two dudes fight for the affections of a woman and then at the end Catherine is revealed to be a man.

I tihnk that the love triangle is the main guy has a girlfriend, but is having an affair with Mantherine.

The only two good things about the last campaign.

Holy fuck.  We just almost got people to understand that the "Playstation Phone" has nothing to do with SCE, and now that Sony is bringing out a tablet computer the "Playstation Pad" stories start.

HEY PEOPLE! SONY HAS MADE ELECTRONICS SINCE 19-FUCKING-46.  Just because they make something capable or playing emulated PS1 games doesn't make it a FUCKING Playstation.

That is all.

So I has Marvel Cappy 3. And it's awesome-tastic.

Anyone else here rocking it?

WHoo-hoo!!!!  Now if this just translates over to the video game world all will be good.

This is a pretty sad NPD.  Other thn LBP2 and Dead Space 2 just a bunch of older games and licenses.

And when did the Nintendo first-party stuff drop off?  And Dancing I guess is hot.

New retail sales rankings from NPD for January 2010 were as follows:



1. Call of Duty: Black Ops (Activision Blizzard) - Xbox 360, PS3, Wi, DS, PC


2. Just Dance 2 (Ubisoft) - Wii


3. Dead Space 2 (Electronic Arts) - Xbox 360, PS3, PC


4. Little Big Planet 2 (Sony) - PS3


5. Zumba Fitness: Join the Party (Majesco) - Wii, Xbox 360, PS3


6. NBA 2K11 (Take-Two Interactive) - Xbox 360, PS3, PSP, Wii, PS2, PC


7. Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood (Ubisoft) - Xbox 360, PS3


8. Dance Central (MTV Games) - Xbox 360


9. Michael Jackson The Experience (Ubisoft) - Wii, DS, PSP


10. DC Universe Online: The Next Legend Is You (Sony) - PS3, PC

My first day back from work (it was all training nothing exciting) and I get a crappy NPD. Every month I am reminded of how shitty NPD has become. I miss the old days.

At least LBP2 did ok. I think, there are no numbers so who knows. This dancing mania makes me reminise about the days where Wii Play was the evil thing that wouldn't leave the charts.
