Anyone interested in next generation gaming should check out the excellent blog post titled "Could Microsoft Become the Marked Leader This Generation?". The post is written by Sam Kennedy, editor of 1UP. The article discuss why Sony is going to have some big trouble gaining the same marked share for their PS3 as the did for their PS2. The comment thread of the post is long, but contains several interesting points of view, and all most no trash talk. It's a good read.

This pretty much sums up the impression most people had after this years E3:

“..I've been saying this since last year's E3, but after all the flack Sony got for showing a CG rendered video of Killzone all they would need to do was show us that same demo running in realtime a year later and we would have all been convinced of the power of the PS3. Heck, that's probably all they would have needed to show us…”

 Another interesting read is 1UP editor John Davidsons post about “eating his kid’s puma’s” after stating that the PSP was going to be the biggest thing ever. The article discuesses what Sony did wrong, and why the DS is superiour in both sales and games. I’m a PSP owner my self, and i really agree that they have huge issues with few good games and too many PS2 ports. The only truly great games i currently own is Dexter and Lumines. I do have GTA, but I mostly use it to load up homebreew and SNES/NES emulator godness. I’m picking up Loco Roco, which looks really promissing, on my way to the airport later today. Going to Denmark this weekend for the Roskilde festival!
