To be fair, I suppose I was inspired by X06 and Gears of War too, but oh well - I'm much too fascinated by AC. The video from the X06 keynote looked pretty damned kickass ... heck, I might as well throw in a YouTube link for the folks who might not have seen the future of kickass-ish-ness.

Here's an IGN article about the controls of the game ... this is how all games should be.

Nothing in particular - just the general whoosh of information flying by from TGS and X06 makes one stop and think - a lot of stuff worth checking out for sure. GameVideos.com has some cool stuff if you haven't watched any yet (not a permalink, so I can't guarantee what may be on the front page some time hence)

So the rumours based on the japanese prices turned out to be mere hearsay after all. A modicum of good news for the more pessimistic future owners of the console.

Source of Inspiration - Pricey PS3 Games?

Lest it goes unsaid, I am fullly aware that it is indeed my personal choice as to whether I want to buy a Playstation 3 or not, rather than it being a "forced expenditure." With that in mind, I do highlight the almost neverending stream of negativity surrounding the PS3 solely in order to make a point about a certain company that seems to be spending the goodwill and loyalty of its fans as currency in the preliminary stages of this "next-gen war." Of course your opinions are your own and I choose not to sway them, but merely to look for a laugh in what will surely be an expensive situation for many.

I'm not a fan of posting links based on "rumours," but hey - the charging-for-demos seems too likely to be a rumour, given Sony's behaviour of late. Here's a CNN link for more info on the Japanese price cut for the lower end PS3 model.
