The Electronic Entertainment Expo kicks off June 10th, and several electronic manufactures will be on site to show off their new gadgets, gizmos, etc.

Most notably will be the new consoles coming out from Sony and Micro$oft.   Sony will (finally!!) show off the PS 4 and hopefully we will get price points for the systems.

Several developers are also releasing next gen games as well, including Sucker Punch, Activision, Electronic Arts, Ubisoft.

So, enjoy the following YouTube clip, courtesy of “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs”.

 

 

Micro$oft Strikes Again!

Well, so far Micro$oft seems to be wanting to shoot itself in the foot with its new system, the Xbox One (or XBone by all the non-fan boys).

Announced this past Thursday, Micro$oft now has said that the Xbox One requires a internet connection every 24 hours.

That’s right kids, Uncle Bill wants you to make sure your Xbox stays online, even if you want to play your games.

So, if you got a hankerin to play your games offline, after 24 hours, you are locked out.  (Nice..)

ALTHOUGH you can still watch your TV programs! YAH!..  wait don’t I already have a box for that?

Considering that the U.S. ranks 7 on Broadband access (unless you live in Vermont or Delaware or Rhode Island), this is going to give a lot folks headaches.
(Yeah, talking to you all south of the Mason-Dixon Line..)  And last time I checked, the new systems didn’t have dial-up connections…

Watch for more details coming soon, as E3 is right around the corner.
