Game Console Madness
My wife and I went out shopping today, mainly because of a 50% off sale at Linen’s and Things (Got some Riter Sport
amongst other tastiness). We drove by the nearby Best Buy, and noticed that there were people with tents camping out, for what I thought was the PS3, but when we got to Target, we realized it wasn’t for the PS3, it was for the Wii
. Holy crap. Did people not understand that it was Sony who was having the manufacturing problems, not Nintendo? And Tents? I looked at the 13 launch titles. Not one of them was worth wasting my time waiting for the game:
- Resistance: Fall Of Man - Sony
- NBA ‘07 - Sony
- Genji: Days of The Blade - Sony
- Blazing Angels - Ubisoft
- Call of Duty 3 - Activision
- Fight Night Round 3 - Electronic Arts
- Elder Scro lls IV: Oblivion - Bethesda Softworks
- F.E.A.R. - Vivendi Universal Games
- Full Auto 2: Battlelines - Sega
- Madden NFL 07 - Electronic Arts
- Marvel Ult imate Alliance - Activision
- Mobile Suit Gundam: Crossfire - Namco Bandai Games
- NBA 2K7 - 2K Sports
- Need for Speed Carbon - Electronic Arts
- NHL 2K7- 2K Sports
- Ridge Racer 7 - NAMCO BANDAI Games
- Sonic the Hedgehog - Sega
- Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07 - Electronic Arts
- Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom - Sony Online Entertainment
Ok, so about the only interesting one is Tony Hawk, but not enough. About the only really cool thing out for the PS3 so far is that it will run Linux. Wonder when someone will hack it for a larger Harddrive, add a USB TV-Tuner, and port MythTV to it?
