Have you played it? What do you think? Is it as good as the hype suggests?

Interesting discussion about the past and future consoles from Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo.

"Way back in 2005, the world was a different place. Sony wanted to re-define computing, replace DVD with Blu-ray HD movies and produce a state-of-the-art games machine. Microsoft wanted a high-end PC in a box, without involving Intel or NVIDIA after unsuccessful collaborations on the original Xbox. To achieve their goals, unimaginable amounts of money were thrown at the problem."

Interesting future for gaming! :)

"The logical endpoint is computing everywhere, all the time - that is, wearable computing - and I have no doubt that 20 years from now that will be standard, probably through glasses or contacts, but for all I know through some kind of more direct neural connection. And I'm pretty confident that platform shift will happen a lot sooner than 20 years - almost certainly within 10, but quite likely as little as 3-5, because the key areas - input, processing/power/size, and output - that need to evolve to enable wearable computing are shaping up nicely, although there's a lot still to be figured out," Abrash wrote.

RIP Jack Tramiel. The Commodore 64 was my first computer. I learned how to program BASIC on it. And played a lot of games. 

Lots of interesting thoughts and speculation about the next-gen PlayStation.

"It's shaping up to be one of the most extraordinary tech stories of the year. If the rumours are true, Sony is leaving its Cell architecture behind, instead working closely with AMD on its next-generation PlayStation."

Interesting statistics about games released on Android and iOS...
