City's the best part. I'm in City right now. it feels so good to move around with all the switching and it has a good difficulty level.

Someone stop me.

Single player seems fun enough, but I have some friends we usually a game night thing with once a week and this might be something worth adding to the rotation if they're into it. I guess we'll see.

that was meant to be dissuading! I guess if you have people actually willing to roleplay Alena and Torneko it could be, um, alright. then again I haven't watched anything on the game.

Looks like Ueda is no longer working at Sony, but is still under contract to finish The Last Guardian. Wonder what ended up happening that caused this. Real shame.

"In a statement received by Gamasutra on Monday, Sony confirmed that while the creator is no longer working as an employee, he is finishing the upcoming The Last Guardian on a contract basis, and is "committed to completing" the project."

first party published top 10. why they decided to toot their own horn like that, who knows.

slim pickings for PSN this year, though I guess that's true for xbla as well. xbla still has much better than that though, and it's kinda funny how xbla ports are commanding the most sales. xbla doesn't have the Pixeljunk shmup games though so points to psn for that.

though I have to wonder what 'indie' means there. Ubisoft published Outland so does it not qualify for the first list? I do hope it wasn't outsold by Hamsterball!

Probably to show the most games from the most devs as possible.

Surprised there's no Outland, From Dust, or 3rd Strike Online on the third-party list. Need a XBLA list for to see if they showed up there.

No, it doesn't qualify, because it's not "self-published." It's probably the most clear distinction of the various levels of indie games I've seen yet and you're still confused!

They probably struck a deal with Gamestop. Gamestop wants to troll all the jrpg nerds who don't want to shop there and Nintendo wants to do the same. it's clear to me.

Here's something about Microsoft and the new Xbox. Sounds like they're aiming for 2013.

"As Microsoft's Xbox group moves toward launching a successor to the Xbox 360, it will do so without the brand and design leadership of Don Coyner, who has guided that strategy since the console's inception more than a decade ago. Two sources who work for Microsoft say Coyner is no longer leading the design and experience group for Xbox. One of those sources said Coyner was replaced by Emma Williams, who helped guide the just-launched redesign of the Xbox Live interface."

"Williams, Coyner's replacement, will be tasked with guiding the design and brand strategy as the group moves toward launching the next console. The game developer Web site Develop recently pegged the launch of the next console for 2013, something a source on the Xbox team confirmed. Microsoft declined to comment on the timing of the next Xbox."
