I've been reading my Google Reader and i have to be honest. I've read at least 6 articles that say the Playstation 3 is "a sinking ship." Some of the reasons that they say this are because the sales for the PS3 have dropped from last year's November 2007 and this year's November 2008 sales. This is possibly due to the PS3's price tag. While it is more powerful than the Xbox 360 and, definitely, the Wii, it is still struggling. Sony has been saying that the PS3 has a 10 year lifespan but, as of right now, i don't really think it will last 10 years. I hope it has the longevity of the PS2, but the games aren't cutting it. Some exclusive games, such as, Final Fantasy 13, are now being released to other consoles. With the price of Blu-ray players dropping, the PS3 may soon not be the cheapest Blu-ray player device out. I really hope that 2009 will be a big year for Sony since they, arguably, changed the way games are played [and made] today.I have found 2 new Final Fantasy 13 Trailers, thanks to kotaku.com. This was, at first, my most anticipated game for the Playstation 3 and was pretty much the only reason why i planning to get it. But, now that it is not an exclusive title, minus 1 point for the PS3 and i absolutely hate to say it. Anyways, the links [for the trailers] are as follows: http://www.gametrailers.com/player/43656.html and http://www.gametrailers.com/player/43655.html
So, LittleBigPlanet has now sold 1 million copies. This is now my most anticipated game for the PS3, i need to have this game. I love the idea of making your own levels and i can just picture myself now. Sitting on my couch and taking about 14 hours to make half a level. Exciting news for me, maybe not so much for my readers.
So, someone has invented a new font called Ecofont. This font was made my Colin Willems. It is a font that is supposed to save you 20% more ink. It does this by having small circles inside the letters (seen on left side, picture). The small white circles are hard to see when the font is smaller, let's say less than 14 font. It's pretty cool, saving ink, and with a nice unique design.You can now send someone Youtube clips for the Christmas holidays. Youtube has created it's own kind of e-card service. You can pick a background, add your own custom message and then send it to up to 25 of your friends. Interesting.
