"it’s unquestionable that within a very short time, we’re going to have portable cell phones that are more powerful than the current-gen consoles," he told us. "People have exaggerated the relative powers - the iPad2 is not more powerful than the 360. It’s still a factor of a couple weaker. But the fact that it’s gotten that close that fast - that means that almost certainly, 2 years from now, there will be mobile devices more powerful than what we’re doing all these fabulous games on right now."Carmack also gives his two cents on digital streaming services like OnLive. He doesn't give any assurances that the existing players will make it, but he definitely sees streaming being a part of the future.
"And convenience is a huge thing. I think that mobile is getting a lot of wins on convenience and I do think that streaming services like OnLive have a future. It’s not at all clear that the existing ones will survive long enough for that future to get there, but I think that it’s almost unquestionable that if you look 5, 10 years in the future, that that type of delivery - even though it’s not going to necessarily be the same graphical quality of latency quality, but a whole lot of convenience can make up for [what's lacking]."
I've also included this video from MotorSportGame that compares Forza Motorsport 4 with Gran Turismo 5. Just for grins.

Apparently Ensaine was cruising the latest LOTR vids, so here are the fruits of his loins. Or the fruits of his looms. Or whatever that saying is.
The trolling video reminded me of this old KISS Shreds, can you dig it?
Players will pre-purchase credits for something like $10-$20. This will allow them to enter the game. Once in the game you will receive the equivalent number of credits. This is called the "cover charge". The fee is to manage the initial launch of the game, which may go fully free-to-player further down the road. The goal is to grow a social network behind the game in a slow and manageable way; and apparently they feel this can be achieved via the cover charge scheme.
"We have always been a big believer in growing up a social network behind the game in a slow and predictable way. Because we have seen that if you don't do that you can end up with a very unstructured experience, where there's no cohesion to the community. By growing it at the beginning we help to make a healthy environment initially."According to gi.biz, Sony also wants to try out various free-to-play business models on the PS3. At this time, CCP has not decided what they plan to sell via micro-transactions.
DUST 514 will be exclusive to the PS3, and the first console game to links players in real time with a massively multiplayer universe on the PC. Set in the EVE Online universe, DUST 514 players will have a profound effect on PC players in EVE Online. For example, EVE's pilots can form alliances with DUST 514 mercs to engage in firefights and conquer territories on the planets of New Eden, which are common to both games. The actions of ground troops and orbiting attack fleets are tightly interwoven, with the real time actions of players in one game directly affecting the other. A single bullet fired on the planet below can pivot the balance of power in EVE Online. Every action has consequences, and every reaction has the potential to topple empires.
"The Green Lantern has been a mainstay for DC Comics fans for more than 60 years, and is a fan favorite among our players," said Mark Anderson, Game Director of DC Universe Online. "We've listened to the feedback, and fans can now create their own Lantern-inspired characters including the use of light powers."In addition to the new light power set, players will also be able to interact with Green Lantern based characters and content in DC Universe Online in these all-new gameplay scenarios:

In Mini Robot Wars, the aim is to help the cute little alien robots defend their planet against an invading horde of evil machines, seeking to turn it into a space resort. The player must gather resources and build robots to act as defensive units and fight their enemies. The game features simple gameplay while retaining plenty of depth, with a large number of units, upgrades and unlockables and a variety of mini-games.Mini Robot Wars has a unique gameplay mechanic; instead of the typical 'path system' adopted by most tower defense games, it uses a platform-like approach common in side-scrolling shooter games. The enemy’s movement is thus not defined by a path but rather by its type.
