I’ve never been a huge fan of the Fragdolls.  I’m no opponent of good looking women, espescially those who like to play games, but they always seemed so cheezy and artificial.  Well, the only thing I can think of that’s more cheezy and artificial is reality TV, and they’re combining it with the Fragdolls in a recruitment show that will be played on GameTrailers.

Microsoft is trying to do a “relaunch” of the Xbox 360 in Japan since their original launch was unsuccessful.  I’m personally not sure how that works.  It’s not like people are going to suddenly start lining up for a product they can already get right now.

Crysis videos and screenshots are starting to hit.  They sure look hot, but I seriously doubt my machine is man enough to handle those graphics.  The video is [url=http://www.gamersreports.com/media/479/videos/]here[/url].

No more boring still screens, but actual video of New Super Mario Bros.  It’s just enough to make me drool like an idiot without actually giving away new information, but I’ll take it!

1UP has an interview with Sony’s Phil Harrison that reveals more details of the PS3.  Among other things discussed are the Playstation Network online service, the PS3 HDD, and the fact that PS3 will be region free (as far as games are concerned).  I’m really excited about the last fact, because I am a bitter opponent of region coding.  I can’t stand missing out on the one or two good titles that never get released here, but it’s often not worth the trouble to get a mod just for a handful of games.
