Speculation Almost Never Wrong
The Xbox 360 Elite is now, well tomorrow it will be, $299 after it's price drop. The Pro is also getting a cut to $250 putting it in direct competition with the Wii. Nintendo better cut the price soon or they will start to lose substantial market share to the others if they do not, and that would almost be a shame.

Feels Strange
I need an Xbox 360, I feel so out of touch reporting on Xbox news and I don't play one myself. I am completely limiting myself, hopefully not for much longer though. And the Wii, well I won't get another one of those until it's sub-$200 or less. Uh, money shouldn't be so hard to come by....
Where I'm Writing
Quick note, I am now writing for BLPGaming.com, there's a great layout there and I want everyone to check it out there and here. I will start posting more of my thoughts on the days news here, and the actual news there. So look here in the evening and there throughout the day.

Mass Effect Will Be PS3, Eventually
An interview with Computerandvideogames.com(CVG) and Bioware's Ray Muzyka has left speculation wide open that Mass Effect could be coming to the PS3 after all. The interview, which goes up later today, has a section all to itself on CVG's website where the Bioware CEO defintiely does not rule out the possibility of Mass Effect coming to the PS3, nor does he rule out that it is not already in development.
When quizzed on why the developer chose not to bring the series to PS3, Muzyka said: "I think a more accurate way to frame it is to say we've announced we're developing Mass Effect for 360 and PC. Right from the beginning we said we wanted to deliver Mass Effect on the 360. Right now all we've announced is we're working on 360 and PC."
This is very exciting news for people who are single console owners looking to get into a critically acclaimed title that is exclusive to the 360. I am looking at getting an Elite when the price drops and I have the extra cash and this is one of the games I will definitely be picking up. Both ME and ME2 have been on my radar since they were announce, and is one of those games that pains you to have only one console. With the changes that are being made to ME2 looking incredible and adding even more depth to the series, it's one of those games you just have to play, like Bioshock.
I know a lot of people pegged Mass Effect as a series making the eventual jump over to the PS3, and Ray Muzyka has definitely talked about how much they like working on the PS3 with Dragon Age: Origins, it seems like a no brainer. The rest of the interview will be up later today, hopefully there will be more exciting news to come out of it. Stay tuned and feel free to comment.

Big New For Me
So if you check the comments here you would have noticed a job offer last week. I was shocked to see it and extremely excited at the same time. I will in fact be taking up this position and will plit my time between this and that trying to offer different content but will almost always link back to the content on the website as it will take more of my time. The website is great and it will be evolving into an even more spectacular site in the near future which makes it even more exciting to be a part of something, which in all honesty is just about what everyone these days wants isn't it!? So I will put up the URL of the site as soon as I have some content up over there and by all means I want everyone to become a part of the new site. The light posting days of last week were partially attributed to this change for me and it just being a downright busy week. Keep a look out because we are looking to change the way you get your entertainment fix!
