Those of you who can't abide horrendous pro-Sony propaganda might want to skip the following shameful article, published in "industry magazine" MCV. It's particularly disappointing to see a trade magazine publishing quotes like this as news without questioning the facts.
Alan Duncan thinks that one game going in at 28 on the charts (Uncharted) constitutes a "rush" for PS3 games, and that Singstar not getting into the top 40 is a "great start". He is quite clearly suffering from delusions and ought to seek psychiatric help.
A 20% increase at Christmas and number 28 is not "soaring". Ask Nintendo what soaring means. Singstar not charting and Uncharted going in at 28 DOES NOT BODE WELL nor could it be considered "encouraging" for 2008. It is, in fact, a total disaster for PS3.
A site about games and game paraphernalia and how nothing's as good as we remember it, probably because we used to inhabit a FANTASY WORLD.

It came with the template. Maybe in 2014 we'll jump on board the Twitter train and put that in here. Or a radio. That'd be nice.
My prediction: This year, they'll do the goat thing again, except that the goat will be a human baby, and the pictures will be less tasteful. That'll be on around January 4th. By December 2008? Nuclear missile launch at a small village.
Mass suicide.
If we all focus on something, we can make it happen, with the power of thought. Just a note, there.
What!? Viva was AWESOME. What didn't you like about it!?
The place where I work is boasting about how they've had a 50% increase in one of their key lines over the past year. All well and good, apart from the fact it's due to the fact we doubled the number of shops in the country.
A 20% increase of fuck all is still fuck all, Sony.
Stx: the answer is 'yes'. It's where the needle sucked out all of his integrity.
qeulhlen: an advanced form of felching.
Pro Street is crap, but no2 in the charts. It's a shame the public are sooo obsessed with rubbish games, and stupid gimmicks.
Things never change :(
I thought Europeans swore by Singstar and went batshit crazy for it and named their kids after it and whatnot. I know how much UK'ers love being called Europeans. ;)
Merry Christmas!
