• [Rumor] Duke Nukem Forever to be showcased at PAX

  Please... say you're not teasing us anymore. For those of you out there who still care like me (and I know ScatRD does!), Duke Nukem Forever is rumored to be shown at PAX this weekend. Last month, Kotaku was told that 3D Realms' ridiculously long-in-the-making shooter Duke Nukem Forever would finally see the light of day, thanks to a saving...

• [Rumor] Wii 2 with blu-ray drive & 1080p support in 2010?

  Rumors going around that Nintendo is developing the Wii 2. It will have a blu-ray drive and support 1080p or lower resolution games (meaning backwards compatibility?) Nintendo wants to release it by third quarter 2010 with viral marketing and lots of publicity. Possible that the original Wii owners could trade in their original Wii console for the new one. All this is purely rumor at this point. Nothing has been confirmed. Click on the title for more information on this rumor....

• Rumor: CoD 6 - To Infinity & Beyond?

  I was very impressed with what Infinity Ward did with CoD 4, so this news is very intriguing to me. I'm trying to imagine some of the sci-fi themed perks they could put in the game.

  Quite a title, huh... If the avatar thing is true, I don't really get the whole Holiday vs Spring for existing vs new customers - doesn't make sense given Live's infrastructure. As pointed out by Xbox 360 Fanboy , a market research website appears to have leaked the details of a new Mii-like system from Microsoft called Avatars. The idea...

  Once again, rumor surfaces of a new chip. What's new (and interesting) is the integrated processor and graphics.

• [Huge Rumor]: MSFT Developing Wii Type Controller

  Too big of a rumor to pass up posting. If I was a betting man, I would bet that MSFT was working on a motion type controller for a while (it has been rumored before). But this is the most information we've seen come out proposed by a source. I love the Wii, so even a copy would be pretty cool. If everything goes according to plan, Microsoft's...

• [Rumor]: 360 Failure Rate at 16%

  I'm not sure what to believe anymore and to be honest, as long as my 1x repaired box keeps on working, I don't care either.

  Don't believe the hype. I call BS on this because it breaks Netflix's business model, especially after the throttling accusations for heavy users of the service. You could watch unlimited movies per month for only $17.99?? Doesn't make economical sense for them. At least the mailers give them 3-7 day cushion. But good fodder nontheless:...

• [Rumor]: PS3 Going on a Diet

  The concept is definitely cool looking. Perhaps a spring announcement along with 360 and PS3 price drops? The guys at T3 are saying one of their inside men has heard word that Sony will be producing a slimmer, sexier PS3 heading for the shelves this autumn. While everyone knows that Sony will eventually shrink its very obese console, such news would... Posted Feb 01 2008, 09:32 AM by cosmo with | with 9 comment(s) Filed under: Playstation 3, Rumor
