Ugh! how it shows you are a mere robot god and not the god of trendy. you fail to understand that the "murderousness" in the fedor sweater is not in the stripes but in the colours. the unassuming beige and the understated cool of the baby pink and blue and the soft yellow. yours is cold colours interspersed with grey... it will make Robio shiver in disgust

And there was no beige one
Ubisoft made like more money from DS then any other platform so this is big, they finally saturated the market with too many Imagine games.
Ubisoft refocuses on core market as casual sales drop 50%French publisher Ubisoft has revised its financial outlook off the back of poor DS sales contributing to a 50 per cent drop in its casual business, and under-performing titles such as James Cameron's Avatar: The Game.
Third quarter sales are expected to be €495 million, down from €540 million, with full-year sales expected to €860 million, a drop from the previous forecast of €1,040 million.
"The considerable contraction in the DS market during the year particularly affected Ubisoft, leading to a €160 million, or almost 50 per cent, year-on-year drop in the Company’s casual segment sales," offered CEO Yves Guillemot.
The company revealed that Assassin's Creed II has now sold over six million units worldwide, and is expected to shift nine million by the end of the financial year – and its this success in the core market that Ubisoft intends to chase in 2010.
"The year 2009 saw the release of many more very high-quality games than in the past," continued Guillemot. "Against this backdrop and with a view to further reducing our exposure to the DS, we intend to continue to refocus our development resources on our major franchises and on the Xbox 360 and PS3, the two consoles which are expected to see sales growth in games for gamers in 2010.
"Ubisoft has already demonstrated its capacity for success in the high-end games market thanks to Assassin’s Creed 2, with sales 40 per cent higher than for the first title. The 2010-11 line-up – which is stronger in franchises for Xbox 360 and PS3 – reflects our refocusing efforts and should enable us to both win market share and enhance our profitability," he added.
The company is to delay the next Tom Clancy title, Splinter Cell: Conviction, from February until April. RUSE will also now be released sometime in the next financial year 2010-2011, alongside a new Ghost Recon title, Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands, Driver, Raving Rabbids 4 and a “new episode of Assassin’s Creed, which will be the first in the series to have an online multiplayer mode.”
The company expects to end the year with an operating loss of around €50 million, rather than the operating income of €70 million initially forecast.
Also blamed for the loss is poor sales of back catalogue titles and abandoned projects.
Man seriously, don't make me laugh. It hurts so much. This is not attention seeking ... i am the God of Stitches

BIOSHOCK 2 REVIEWS
The first BioShock 2 reviews have arrived, via both PSM3 and PC Gamer magazines... and it's good news.
PSM3 awarded the follow-up 93%, saying it "Tops the original in terms of storytelling and combat."
PC Gamer meanwhile went with a lower but still impressive score of 90%, concluding that "the mechanics that made the original BioShock such fun return, better than before," and "it's still better written than pretty much anything else out there."
Well, duh! I couldn't BE the God of Manwhores if there wasn't someone underneath me!
Why you got to go there? I got a following.
Pre-ordered my copy of it yesterday, along with an arcade stick controller and the DataEast Collection. 2010 will be the year my Wii becomes a home arcade.
You going to up your VC purchases too?
I lead robio's fan club. I'm his best groupie.
I'll give a little extra attention the the Virtual Arcade assuming that Nintendo actually gets some games on there. I've got Shinobi and I'm very happy with that, and Ninja Gaiden will get picked up once I get that arcade stick controller (these games just aren't meant to be played with a Wiimote or even a classic controller). Other than that though the selection is a little sparse.
Yes you are. That's why you've been blessed and given Trendy Sainthood.
