Killzone 2 vs Halo 3 Sales, 2TB Hard Drive, Sony News, Final Fantasy Countdown is Finished

I didn't read this article about Killzone 2 vs Halo 3 in terms of sales, but it did spark something in my mind. Which one will win? Personally, i think that Killzone 2, from what i've heard, is a better game overall than Halo 3. But, in terms of sales, i don't think that Killzone 2 will be able to surpass what Halo 3 has done. I hope that Killzone 2 will beat the Halo 3 in terms of sales, just to shove it in everyone's face, but i don't think that will happen. But, i may be wrong, so we'll just have to see.

Western Digital has launched the world's first 2TB hard drive. An insane capacity, yet i still don't know why you would really need that much storage. I am perfectly fine with around 250GB of space. But, i mean there are those people who just need to have all that space, you know. Most probably for torrented HQ movies and a bunch of other stuff i will not name (see: pr0n). An insane capacity. I am more in favour for the SSD rise though.

First i'll talk about Sony's OLED TV (left picture). This OLED that was launched in Japan in October 2007 and in the US in January 2008 will finally be hitting Europe. The 11-inch XEL-1 has a mere 3mm thin display, a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio and a 178-degree viewing angle. The colour on this TV is amazing. Up next is another Sony TV. It looks like it will be part of the Sony Bravia line. I think it was announced at their press conference at CES, but i don't know for sure, since this article didn't really give much information. The article does mention that it is thinner than a slice of bread. The TV is reportedly 9.9mm thin, which will make it the world's thinnest LED TV to-date. I guess that doesn't include the OLED's.

The Final Fantasy XIII countdown finished yesterday, but i didn't get to blog-post about it last night. What did they reveal to the world? A new HD trailer and real-time gameplay footage. I'm watching it as i type this out and it looks amazing. I hope i have PS3 by the time this comes out in, the earliest, 2010. The video itself is under 3 minutes long, so it shouldn't take too much out of your day. I noticed that the on-screen damage numbers uses the same font as one of their other game's 'Dirge of Cerberus,' which is really irrelevant, but i thought i'd just point that out. Anyways, here's the video for you, via Joystiq.
