    Sony’s New Strategy

    Sony has been cunningly showing flexibility in the prices according to the market moods. The PS3 60GB, which was originally sold for $599, was suddenly dropped to 499$. A full 100$ price cut produced a boom in the sales. And people began buying the console with renewed frenzy. PS3 smartly stopped producing the 60GB consoles in favor of promoting the 80GB console which shall start coming out as soon as the 60GB ones disappear, in that way securing itself from the loss most companies have to go through when launching an upgraded version of the same product. This strategy enabled Sony to sell Microsoft by 2000 units in Canada only. The sales increased tenfold to 159000$ which a mere 98000$ the previous month. Karraker stated, “The 60GB is not out of stock in the US. SonyStyle.com currently has a back order notice up on their site, but they are shifting some inventory and will have it available again soon.” When asked for further clarification, Karraker said, “All we can say at this point is we have ample inventory for anyone looking to buy a PS3 in North America.”

    Previews:Worm: A Space Oddity

    Worms is a wacky, humorous, twisted game developed by the Team 17 featuring homicidal worms that seem to give the Taliban a run for their money. Hacking, blowing up, burning, bombing, are just a few of the things these little worms are fond off. Aside from those tactics taunting, name-calling are just a little of the other past times. Recently there have been many various “versions” of the game in which the voice-overs of the worms are taken from the movies; a very popular one includes voice-overs from “South Park”. After the PC, Team 17 first introduced Worms on the Xbox360 and now plans for another wacky episode on the Nintendo Wii are being laid out. The latest installment is called Worms: A Space Oddity. Finally the little worms can take a ride on the rockets, they are so found of firing at one another. Releasing in 2008 the worms have expanded their battles to 6 new planets, each having the traditional sci-fi looks and environment and new level design. The multiplayer mode has the option of having upto 4 players. It shall be a new experience on the Wii with the motion sensing technology and of course another excuse for the fans to go “worm-hunting”.

    HD-DVD v/s Blu Ray

    The history of the CD is quite interesting when taken a cursory look through. The origin began with the “punch card”. Later assuming the shape of floppy disk, magnetic tape and the most recent form an optical disk more commonly known as the CD. In each stage, it began to attain the ability to store more and more data from a mere 7KB (kilobytes) to the 4GB DVD. Now its time for us to kiss DVD goodbye for not one but two heirs are standing on the doorstep waiting to replace it the Blu-Ray and HD-DVD. Like the traditional fight between two brothers for a throne, the struggle between these two Titans is all the rage now. HD-DVD, which stands for High-Definition DVD, is a high-density optical disc format designed for the storage of data and high-definition video. Developed by the joint collaboration between Toshiba and NEC, they aim to replace to the normal DVD with the HD-DVD. It has the ability to store 15GB per layer that is 3 times as much as the original DVD. Its comes with dual layer as well hence increasing its size limit upto 30GB. When used the dual layer on the double side it increase upto 60GB. The HD-DVD has been implemented in the Microsoft Xbox360. Its rival on the other hand, Blu-ray Disc, (also called BD) is a high-density optical disc format for the storage of digital media, including high-definition video. It has the ability to store upto 25GB per layer. Also comes with dual layer option which boosts the memory space upto 50GB. The double dual layer shoots the space upto 100GB. The funky sounding name Blu-Ray has been derived from the blue-violet laser used to read and write this type of disc. Its was developed by Sony and its implementation is done in the Sony Playstation3. Aside from baffeling the crackers, who have been desperately trying to crack the Blu-Ray technology and have failed, seems as it’s the more capable of the two brothers. Aside form the implementation in the consoles, these disks have also been used for storing movies. Adam Sandlers Click was the first ever Blu-Ray disc released in October10,2006. While the HD-DVDs were out before the 2006. The writer for HD-DVD was on 31st March 2006 in Japan at a price of $934, while the Blu-Ray wasOn December 4th 2006 Sony launched their first stand-alone player at a price of $1000. The major factor for it being superior is the extra 10 GB disk space in the basic single layer of both the new DVDs. When a raw comparision was made,it was found out that the Blu-Ray technology was beating HD-DVD at almost evey step. A recent comparision between the sales market of both these two competitors revealed that for every single HD-DVD sold, two of the Blu-Ray were sold. Hence Blu-Ray is defeating its opponent, on the ratio of 2:1. So its seems that with the beginning of a computing era soon the DVDs shall b replaced by the Blu-Ray.

    Good news for Xbox360 lovers

    Recently, what with the sudden downpour of Xbox360, all exhibiting a symptom of three flashing red lights and ending with hardware failure, Microsoft conducted an extensive investigation and came to the conclusion that there were quite some factors, which contributed to the hardware failure. So in order to “strengthen the long term health of Xbox business” it has decided to increase the warranty period given with each console by Microsoft from a single year to three years. Despite the fact that it is going to cost the company an arm and leg, it is still prepared to go ahead with this notion. A resounding amount of  $1.05 million to $1.15 million excluding taxes was put aside from Microsoft’s budget to handle all the console repairing and the additional shipping and handling charges. Aside from making improvements and enhancements on the latest batch of Xbox360 so that they don’t suffer from the same ailments nick-named Ring of Death, they have decided to reimburse the people who have suffered form this problem and had to pay expenses to repair it. Though the humbled software Giant Microsoft is trying its best to makeup for this huge mishap it just logically follows this shall cost it in more then in fiscal terms. An open letter from Peter Moore “You’ve spoken, and we’ve heard you. Good service and a good customer experience are areas of the business that we care deeply about. And frankly, we’ve not been doing a good enough job……… If we have let any of you down in the experience you have had with your Xbox 360, we sincerely apologize. We are taking responsibility and are making these changes to ensure that every Xbox 360 owner continues to have a great experience. The quality assurance of Microsoft has its foundations shaken and now the unswerving supporters shall be faced with a dark fiend “doubt”. A chance which the Sony and Nintendo Corporations should be quick to take advantage off.  “The majority of Xbox 360 owners are having a great experience with their console and have from day one. But, this problem has caused frustration for some of our customers and for that, we sincerely apologize,” said Robbie Bach, president of Microsoft’s Entertainment & Devices Division. “We value our community tremendously and look at this as an investment in our customer base.  We look forward to great things to come.” Though this might come as a blessing from heaven to all the frustrated Xbox users its still doesn’t cover all the bases. Globally exported from the day it was released, even though the warranty is available it won’t be so easy sending the console to Microsoft. So many of the gamers in far flung places of the globe shall have to wait for quite a time for their console to come back repaired and of course even this action does not fully guarantee that this error shall not pop-up again
