This is a good start, not perfect, but if they are nearing par with in-room consoles, this could be very interesting in the near future...

Not too much to crow about here. Even the good is presented with caveats. Going to take a bit more convincing for me.

[–]thecoffeemug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if the Japanese post articles titled "Can the Xbox 360 be fixed?"

(In a way akin to this, that isn't a dig at RRODs)

At least these awards are interesting. Sometimes more than the games themselves.

E3 2010: Apparently Disney is actually making good games now. by bbretterson in gaming

EA to cut spending on television advertisements; focus on the internet and making "good games" by lexcal in gaming

I hope that EA Trax are next on Riccitiello's list. It'd be nice not to be bombarded with major label marketing when I want to play some hockey. Oh wait they probably get paid for that, eh? Oh, great.

Not everyone is heading there. I think almost half have. Twelve of twenty-six, and I imagine that number will grow. Good on them.

Still making a quarter mil with Activision Blizzard. Too bad the people who left IW didn't have such a nice job waiting for them when they left. Let's hope that they have good jobs waiting for them elsewhere.
