Nintendo and Activision Own the Show in December and 2009

Posted by: rasp1 on: 02/21/2010 03:37 AM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

Everyone thought Nintendo was down and out after the Game Cube, and said that the initial sales triumphs of the Wii were a fad that would fade away.

This can be safely put to bed. Nintendo moved 3.81 million Wii's in December, almost 3:1 over the closest console competitor the Play Station 3. They sold 3.31 million DS's in the month as well.

Activision proclaiming that Modern Warfare 2 has sold more than $1 Billion dollars in worldwide sales, clearing half of that in the first 5 days of sales on the market.

From the Press Release:

"Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has exceeded our expectations and shattered theatrical box office and video game records. There are only a handful of entertainment properties that have ever reached the $1 billion mark, which illustrates the power of the Call of Duty franchise and mass appeal of this game. In its first five days alone, the game sold an estimated $550 million worldwide, outpacing five-day worldwide theatrical box office gross figures for such films as Avatar, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and The Dark Night."

Bioshock 2 DRM...

Posted by: rasp1 on: 02/18/2010 01:11 PM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

In the gaming industries on going battle against PC Gaming is the new BioShock 2. The boxed retail version of the game will come with SecuROM and a 5 machine activation limit. Though the Steam version of the game should be free of this, though Steam limits apply.

2k Games had this to say about the issue:

"BioShock 2 is using a standard Games for Windows Live activation system, much like other games you have played in the past. That doesn't mean you always have to be online to play or save the game—you can create an offline profile for the Single Player portion of the game (you just won't earn achievements and you can't play Multiplayer, of course.) We are using SecuROM only as a disc check method for the retail copy of BioShock 2. That is it's [sic] only use."

InFamous
Developed by Sucker Punch, the geniuses behind Sly Cooper, InFamous is a PS3 exclusive open-world superhero game. You play as Cole, who wakes up in the middle of a crater, created by the destructive properties of a secret weapon he was unknowingly delivering. As a courier, he had no idea what he was carrying around in that box would be the end of one life, and the start of an entirely different existence. Somehow, the explosion gave Cole special electrical powers to use for good, or evil. Over time, you’ll gain new powers that will aid you in your quest to find out what really happened on that eventful day.

Netflix Coming to the Wii

Posted by: rasp1 on: 02/06/2010 07:48 AM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

During the CES 2010, Netflix and Nintendo announced that Netflix streaming will be coming to the Wii in 2010. Nintendo is the last of the major console manufactures to add Netflix to their stable of features. The streaming will come way of a disk that you order from Netflix just like the PS3.

The Wii isn't new to streaming, it has been doing that since 2008 in Japan with Dentsu and Fujisoft. Of course no high definition content will be shown on the Wii since it isn't capable of displaying the content in any above 480p.

This should give a nice little boost in sales for Nintendo, plus a nice VAF to owners of the console already. Colin Dixon of the Diffusion Group had this to say,

"No major vendor sees its console as only a gaming platform; it’s just a question of the degree to which they extend console-based experiences and applications beyond the gaming center."

Paypal now accepted on Xbox Live

Posted by: rasp1 on: 08/10/2009 03:39 AM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

Those among us that do not like to put your credit card any where on line now, but have a hankering for Xbox Live now have a new choice. Payments made to Xbox Live can now be done via your paypal account. For those not in the know, if you want to buy anything on Xbox live you have to have Microsoft Points. These points equate to 400 pt to $5 USD.

There are some pesky details of course. The first being that you can only use this via xbox.com, not directly from the dash board(not really a draw back per-say, just how would you integrate that on the dashboard?) And you can only purchase points, but beyond paying your subscription fee to Microsoft, that is the only other thing besides points you can get. And you can only use this feature if you are a resident of the USA, but lets be real people, who outside of the US really uses the 360?

You can also use multiple paypal accounts with one live account, but I'm not sure if you can use multiple Live accounts with one Paypal account. That is something that will have to be tested. Choice is good. You can now buy games via Amazon, xbox.com, and the Dashboard.

This is of course part of the bigger Xbox Live Dashboard Update that will be hitting the masses on Tue, Aug 11th. All we need now is a way for it to dispense Gamer Fuel on demand and it will be perfect.
