Content aside, it's always looked and played better on 360 known fact. From all technical comparisons at Eurogamer and other places throughout the series check Digital Foundry ....

YESSSSS?

Yeah, there's more to the World Ends With You teaser site than just the iOS game. I figured that had to be the case. An iOS port just isn't enough cause for a teaser site. There's something bigger coming up. Still crossing my fingers it's not for the 3DS. I don't want to buy that damned system again.

This weekend's game deal courtesy of PC Gamer:

If I may make a suggestion: grab GTA IV for $5, gather a few friends, and set up a no-friction car mod footrace. It will be $5 well spent.

• 75% off Grand Theft Auto IV at GameFly- $4.99
• 75% off Civilization V Game of The Year Edition on Amazon – $12.49
• 40% off The Walking Dead at GameStop – $14.99
• 50% off Torchlight on GOG – $7.49
• 50% off Legend of Grimrock on GOG – $7.49
• 75% off Just Cause 2 on Steam – $3.74
• 50% off Age of Empires Online Steam Starter Pack on Steam- $9.99
• 20% off at Green Man Gaming with the voucher code DERHE-RRDER-RINGE

For under $4, you could justify getting Just Cause 2 just ’cause. [Ed. note: the joke police have been contacted.]

• 75% off Just Cause – $2.49
• 75% off Just Cause 2 – $3.74
• 50% off Age of Empires Online Steam Starter Pack – $9.99
• 66% off Day of Defeat: Source – $3.39 (Friday only)
• More Steam deals

It’s nothing new for Amazon, which seems to cycle its discounts among the same set of games, but its Civilization sale is still strong.

• 75% off Civilization V – $7.49
• 75% off Civilization V Game of The Year Edition – $12.49
• 10% off Civilization V: Gods and Kings – $26.99
• 75% off Civilization IV: The Complete Edition – $7.49
• 67% off Mount & Blade – $4.88
• 62% off Trine – $7.63
• More Amazon PC game downloads

Select Grand Theft Auto games are 75% off on GameFly all weekend. What a steal! [Ed. note: the joke FBI has been contacted.]

• 75% off Grand Theft Auto IV – $4.99
• 75% off Grand Theft Auto: The Ballad of Gay Tony – $3.75
• 75% off Grand Theft Auto: The Lost and Damned – $2.49

There’s no particular theme on Get Games this weekend, but some nice deals. Its Sleeping Dogs sale has gone from 25% off to 10% off, but it’s still one of the few retailers that has it on sale. But there’s a “but”: you can get it cheaper at Green Man Gaming, with its 20% off anything voucher.

• 10% off Sleeping Dogs – $44.99
• 50% off Rayman: Origins – $14.99
• 75% off Driver San Francisco – $8.74
• 75% off Far Cry 1 + 2 – $6.25
• 50% off Lord of the Rings: War in the North – $19.99
• More deals from Get Games

If you didn’t pick it up during the Steam Summer Sale, The Walking Dead for $14.99 isn’t bad at all.

• 40% off The Walking Dead – $14.99
• 75% off Saints Row: The Third – $12.49

GOG’s weekend theme is looser than usual, but to our benefit: it’s got 50% off some great indie games.

• 50% off Torchlight – $7.49
• 50% off Legend of Grimrock – $7.49
• 50% off Tiny and Big: Grandpa’s Leftovers – $4.99
• 50% off Darwinia – $4.99
• 50% off Spacechem – $4.99
• 50% off Geneforge 1-5 – $7.49

That voucher is still active — until the end of August, you can save 20% on any PC download at Green Man Gaming with the code DERHE-RRDER-RINGE.

As usual, GamersGate has ten pages packed with sales. Many of them will cause shrugging, but not all of them: try S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl for $3.99 (Friday only), Mount & Blade Collection for $20.97, and Warp for $2.49.

So who plays who? Hiro from Heroes as Iwata. Jackie Chan as Miyamoto. John Cho as Kaz. George Takai as Kutaragi. Noah Wyle as that dorky MS guy.

If Sony makes the movie, I would think it would focus more on the console wars of the 90's which by all accounts were a lot more cut-throat, mainly due to how Nintendo ruled with an iron fist. I could very easily see it focusing on Nintendo vs. Sega, and then how Nintendo screwed over Sony with the CD drive and then it would end with Sony launching the Playstation en route to taking over the world. Sony would look nothing but good in a story like that.

I started to play Madden 12 with this years rosters, I had got the game for like $10 earlier. I am shocked at how bad this game is. The announcing by Gus Johnson and Collinsworth is horrendous, Collinsworth sounds like he wants to die rather than say the lines.The presentation is so bad, 2K5 blows this away in almost every concebale way. Navigating menus is a chore, it takes forever to find something especially in franchise mode. The gameplay is ok which is the core of the game but I expected that by this gen football games would be amazing but EA is holding it back. 2K5 did all this and so much more last gen.

Yeah last years was pretty awful, I skipped it for the first time in a few years. This years is much better  check out the demo!
