God of War III Senior Producer Steve Caterson recently indicated to IndustryGamers that he has “no idea” what Sony Santa Monica's next project will be. While the studio might be approaching their next title with open minds, they certainly won't be idle in the meantime.
“We’re jumping right back in, I’ve got a small concept team working on our next product for us,” said John Hight, Sony Santa Monica product development director to MTV [thanks VG247]. “We’re actually gonna do something different this time, we’re gonna have a short-term concept, a game that we hope to turn out.”
“I’m not gonna say when, but then we have a much longer term concept team going through, two teams going on at once,” continued Hight. “One with a kind-of long-range, ‘Here’s what we’re gonna do years down the road,' and then another one that’s, ‘Here’s what we’re gonna do as the very next project.'”

I hate to admit it, especially since I like Nintendo's franchises more, but Sony arguably has the best first party development studios. Though no slouch in this department, MS puts less emphasis on first party besides Halo and it shows. They are clearly third in this respect, but that doesn't mean they're not still impressive. faxing online

'm not saying streaming will single handedly kill consoles. But it's another factor in the question, what's the point of building a more powerful console for release in the foreseeable future? (other than for Nintendo maybe, for whom raising the horsepower bar still has a point given the installed base of current display technology).internet fax comparisons

The most ironic part of this whole situation is that third parties will likely take much greater care to use the PS Move in a way that adheres to core gamer sensibilities than the wagglefests they've produced for the Wii. I say this for two reasons:best identity theft solutions

Expectedly, a drop in price by Sony would trigger a price-cut by both Microsoft and Nintendo, who might also consider slash the prices of their respective consoles - Xbox 360 and Wii. Altogether, the price-cuts will help 2009 set yet another sales signpost for thegaming industry.top ecommerce hosting
