Sony’s Spring Games Line-up: It’s Long April 21, 2007
READ MORE Games , PS3
Sony might be getting some stick for the lard-ass way its PS3 is taking off [see below] but this is a marathon, not a sprint.
And anyway, it’s not all about the PS3 as Sony just showed by unveiling an impressive Spring 2007 games line-up for the PSP, PS2 and PS3. Over 100 titles will hit the shelves over the coming months, proving that there’s still lots of life, and cash, in the PS2 and the PSP.
They might not be high-def ready, have Blu-ray drives and destroy your bank account but they’re the console equivalent of a kebab after a piss-up: unbeatable. Jump now to see the list of some of the key releases.-Martin Lynch

The Wii Is Still Winning April 21, 2007

The Wii, the supposed lightweight in the console war, refuses to live down to its status and continues to kick console butt.
According to NPD, US consumers snapped up 259,000 of them during March, pushing the Q1 tally to just over 1 million. The Xbox 360 managed to hold onto second with sales of 199,000 units – not bad for a system on the market for almost 18 months. And the PS3? Well, it managed to sell 130,000 – half that of the Wii.
Even though the Wii is considerably cheaper, this is still not how the PS3 fairytale was meant to read and adds fuel to the rumours that Sony is planning a price cut.
As I’ve already covered, UK retailers like Play.com have seen the wisdom in popping the inflated PS3 price balloon and are offering the console [with free HDMI cable, Sony] for £399.-Martin Lynch
