Or when someone tries to do likewise on a PS3.

Just heard that Panasonic(?) is planning on backing out of the HD-DVD X Bluray midia wars... considering that Panasonic(?) was Full On Board with this midia, this could get messy

The gentle Wii would never do us any harm.

The Wii loves us.

And sony takes a Jab!

The Associated Press is reporting that Japanese tax authorities have ordered Sony to pay an estimated 27.9 billion yen ($243 million) in additional taxes.

According to a statement issued by Sony, Japanese tax authorities found fault with tax payments related to profits from PlayStation console sales and profits from transactions relating to CD and DVD business operations between Sony and a number of overseas subsidiaries from 1999 to 2004.

The taxation bureau calculated Sony's income in Japan to be 74.4 billion yen ($647 million) more than the amount it originally reported.

Sony planned on filing a protest with tax authorities, contending that "additional taxes would constitute double taxation under the terms of the US-Japan bilateral tax treaties."

I DON'T like to take premature bets...but Sony IS taking heavy hits BEFORE the console was launched. Am I the only one seeing trouble there? I want to see Metal Gear Solid end >_>

Upton: Hundreds! Actually, we've done tests where there are too many enemies on the screen! After a certain point it turns into total chaos and it's hard to fly for 5 seconds without slamming into another plane, which obviously isn't very fun. As we tune each of the missions we're trying to keep them as crowded as possible and still be fun and playable.

So, they've literally made a game that is so complicated it's stupid and it's probably only going to be released on the most expensive console ever?

SIGN ME UP FOR SOME OF THAT
