The Next Gen Watercooler

Everybody and their mother knows that Square Enix is making FFX111 for 360 now.It’s only being made in English territories and not being released in Japan on 360.I’m guessing that has to do with Microsoft’s terrible 360 sales in Japan. No way this was a surprise for the Sony inner circle,but definitely a blow to the Final Fantasy PS3 fans. Is it the death of Sony? No. Today is Sony’s chance to make it up,so we’ll see.Personally,I do not care as I’m not a big fan of JRPGs and these days,exclusives are going the way of the dinosaur unless you are owned by that console maker.

Halo Wars slips to 09.Not really a surprise,but it’s looking better.I may be interested.

Lips is a Singstaresque game that will incorporate your own music that you can sing along with.Interesting

The 360 is getting a dashboard change in the fall with new functions such as Wii Mii like Avatars,Photos,party system.Impressive!!

Bethesdas(my boys!)title Fallout 3 will have exclusive 360 DLC.(I’m a little sad as I wanted to pick this up on PS3)

Gears of War still on 2 player co-op,but 5 player MP online.

XBLA News   Geometry Wars 2,Galaga Remake,OG Banjo Kazooie,Uno Rush

Rockband 2 is a “timed”exclusive.Don’t worry PS3 folks you’ll get it like a month later

Netflix joins the 360.You need Live and a Netflix membership,nothing else

Fable 2 comes in October(still have to wait to see this happen)

360 gets a 60gb sku at the old Pro 20gb price of $349

Well,that’s just a little summary.Sony and Nintendo’s Pressers come out today,so we’ll see what bombs they drop and they will..
