it looks like ps3/xbox360 will have a lot of the same games...

so 360 will have final fantasy etc, on top of signing a bunch of top japanese game designers. it'll probably be a decent fight.

I think you're right about the delay.
We'll have to see what happens.
After Virtual Boy, and other such failures, I wonder who will be the brave company to come out with the first generation?

On the subject of controllers...
I agree on the horrors of designing a controller that is enjoyable across age and sex groups.
You can look at the controller much like a shoe, the better it fits, the better performance and comfort you get. It would be great if companies started to design differnt sized controllers much like you would find different size sneakers or shoes. Try one on and pick the best size/fit.
Every sport has it's own accessories and you would find it insane if there was only one size tennis racket, one size/weight bownling ball, baseball bat, ice skate, etc.
They should treat controllers more like this... more custom to the individual.

Once again..manfacturing costs would kill that idea.
Is this why they keep designers out of the boardroom? hah j/k

good idea about the shock gauge, the higer ranked you are the higher voltage shock you can give, or should it be the other way around, but they definitly have to solve lag problems if they want to implement shock trigger into the controller, or I'd throw the damn thing out the window by the second time I get a shock without good reason.

What sort of access times are associated with blueray?
I assume that most of the data thats stored are enourmous hes textures. And having disks this large with this much info needing to get piped in... wondering what load times will be like.
