Duke Next Summer . . . Sort Of

Yes, Duke Nukem is releasing next summer . . . but for the handheld. After seeing the trailer earlier this year, perhaps many of you have been waiting for the next gen version, but no official word on that title as yet. It’s E3 Week, though, so who knows? It’s not clear whether the game [...]

Killzone 2, February 2009 Confirmed

Well even though KZ2 got pushed back to 2009, at least we know it’s coming out in February. Sony has their entire year all planned out and now it’s here for you to see. I’d also like to note that this is the biggest press release I’ve ever seen.


Sony April NPD Results

And last but not least we have the Sony NPD results for April. They sold 187,000 consoles in April. Pretty good for a console that’s fighting this war on two fronts. Here’s the full release from Sony:

It’s an odd footnote to the company’s prediction of 17 million LCD TVs sold throughout FY 2008-2009, but this Reuters article quotes Sony’s target goal of 15 million PSPs in the same FY compared to a “mere” 10 million PS3 consoles.
