Xbox 360 Tops PS3 in Japan

Submitted by: KillerONE @ 12:21 PM | Friday, November 9, 2007 | (url: http://xbox360.ig...)

Microsoft is having one impressive week over in Japan. In addition to grabbing the second slot in the Media Create top 50 sales charts with Ace Combat 6, the 360 sold 17,673 hardware units in one week alone. With the new sales, the system has at last crossed the 500,000 sold mark, which is something that the original Xbox never did.

But more than that, this is what we're sure will keep people talking. The 17,673 hardware units was enough for the 360 to beat both the PS2 and PS3! Yes, the 360 is now the second hottest console in Japan (next to the Wii).

Epic Confirms No Unreal Tournament 3 PC-to-PS3 Online

Submitted by: DudeofDeath @ 09:41 AM | Wednesday, September 26, 2007 | (url: http://www.shackn...)


Much ado has been made about the potential presence of cross-platform play in Epic Games' upcoming multiplayer-heavy shooter Unreal Tournament 3 (PC, PS3, X360). The most likely compatible platforms have been PC and PlayStation 3, as the Xbox 360 version has taken a development backseat and the PS3's approach to network architecture is more conducive to the kind of freedom Epic would want for such a service. - www.shacknews.com

Interview with id's Marty Stratton: Quake 5 and Quake Zero

Submitted by: prowler @ 09:53 AM | Thursday, August 9, 2007 | (url: http://www.gameri...)

There's lore of things we're going to tap into in the existing community and hopefully with QuakeZero and some other things we can do, we can build that and then when it comes out hitting on all cylinders, we can have people feel they're part of what is going to be what I hope is the next definitive multiplayer competition game. I almost feel that Quake 3 still is. Tournaments don't use it as much, older graphics and all with the sponsors liking the fresher thing. But I still think that if you want to settle a 1v1 FPS grudge match, it's Quake 3. No other game has this connection and overwhelming feeling, and that's the goal that we'd like to bring. And bring it we will.
