Perhaps this is old news to some of my comic book friends, but I just found out about it; an upcoming show at the New York Giant Robot store…
… which reminds me; I still haven’t been to the store and its been open for how many months now? I need to get out more.
Meanwhile, from other parts of the world, tons of crazy stuff have just been revealed for the Xbox 360 and DS. Well, pretty much only for the DS. There’s so many crazy games coming down the pipe, I can’t even keep track! Meanwhile, MS just had their X05 event which was designed to get everyone all excited for the system’s launch later this year. And, aside from Ridge Racer 6, nothing was all that impressive, at least in my opinion.
I just don’t know about these Microsoft guys. In almost each and every interview, the guys behind the system come off as both arrogant (which is okay when you’re on top, and they most clearly are not) and complete clueless. For example, check out this interview where they show they just don’t get the point behind Revolution’s controller (its at the end). What a way to make your system look even more second rate than it already is.
Yeah, needless to say, I’m not a big 360 fan for the time being. Perhaps Mizuguchi’s new game might change my mind. But till then…
