Sony’s savior is nothing more than PSP: the sequel.
Warning: This article contains – gasp! – my opinion. If your delicate sensibilities can’t grasp reading something counter to your own beliefs, perhaps you should mosey along to something you’ll find easier to digest. Here’s a suggestion.
Read the comments on this site, and you’ll see that I’m a bona fide Sony hater. Curiously enough, I’m also an Xbox, Android and Nintendo hater, depending on the comments you read. Basically, if you ask the readers of this site, I hate everything.
Reader contention aside, it is true that I’ve never been a fan of the Sony brand. This is the result of several factors: the “quantity over quality” approach they’ve always taken towards game development, their absurd comments about the superiority of their consoles despite sales data saying otherwise, and their documented tendency to screw their playerbase.
I believe the Sony Vita will fail. Not on the scale of the Virtual Boy or Jaguar, but in the sense that it will not overtake the Nintendo 3DS, and will not extend Sony’s grasp on the handheld market far beyond what the PSP already provided. This belief comes not from my admitted distaste for Sony, but from the tepid response the device has seen since Japanese launch, the lukewarm reviews offered to the system’s launch lineup, and the unfolding clusterfucks related to the new system that indicate Sony hasn’t learned how to make a system that’s easy to use and fun to own.
Put simply, the PS Vita is too little, too late. And no matter how you feel about Sony, it’s not going to change this simple fact: Nintendo remains the king of the handheld kingdom for the foreseeable future.
Sorry Sony fanboys; it looks like you’re out of luck.

A young documentarian explores the depths of game addiction in a student film.
We’re all avid gamers. I think that’s safe to say, since we’re all here either writing or reading about games. However, there’s a thin line between being passionate about a subject and being completely obsessed. Game addiction is a very real problem for thousands, if not millions of people. In my days of WoW raiding, it wasn’t uncommon to hear stories of abandoned wives, lost jobs and other nasty consequences of being unable to pull oneself away from the screen.
Anthony Rosner, a third-year student at University of Central Arkansas, decided to plunge headlong into the world of game addiction with his short film, IRL. The movie focuses on World of Warcraft, but gamers of all varieties will likely find something with which to identify.
If you have about ten minutes to kill, the movie is definitely worth a look:
If anything, IRL provides us with an opportunity to discuss the perils of game addiction. When do you think passion crosses over into addiction? Have you ever had to forcefully pull yourself or a friend out of a game?
Let us know in the comments.

Ó

The Australian government is finally addressing major problems in its game rating system.
We’ve talked previously about the massive problems with the way Australia’s government rates games. Because the country has no “Mature” equivalent rating, all games must be appropriate for teens in order to hit retail shelves. This limitation has caused some games to either be modified for the Aussie market, or made unavailable to Aussie players.
The Australian government is aware of the problem, and recently recommended a full review of their ratings system be administered to figure out how to best move forward. While the results from that review are still pending, the new Federal Minister for Home Affairs doesn’t seem intent on waiting around. Jason Clare, who now serves in the Minister position, confirmed via interview that a bill designed to establish a mature-equivalent rating would be introduced to parliament sometime next month. The new rating, known as R18+, will help developers bring violent and otherwise graphic content to Australian shores.
After the bill is introduced, it will have to pass first in the Lower House, then in the Senate. There’s no guarantee of passage, but even having a bill on the docket is farther than the Aussie government has managed to get in a long time.
Here’s hoping the bill goes through and our Australian friends can stop worrying about whether particular games will make it to their stores. Look for more updates in February, once the bill hits a vote.

The social gaming giant continues its push into the mobile market.
Zynga hasn’t been doing so great as of late, with attendance on their social games a pale shadow of what they used to be. But the company is on the prowl for ways to expand its business model, and has the mobile market at the center of its crosshairs. Early today, Zynga confirmed that it has acquired no fewer than four mobile developers with the intent of extending its mobile grasp.
Gamedoctors, HipLogic, Page44 Studios and Mobile Ape were all confirmed to have been picked up, giving Zynga a deep portfolio from which to choose and a few established franchises on which to build. All things considered, it’s a smart move for the company, especially when you consider their stock has been steadily declining in value since the company went public back in December.
There’s no information on what games Zynga plans to make or how the company will be using its new development studios, but we’ll keep you posted as information becomes available.
In the meantime, what do you think of Zynga snapping up smaller studios?

A leaked GameStop document hints that North America’s Vita launch may be accompanied by more games than previously thought.
We talked a couple of weeks ago about Vita’s confirmed launch titles, but it looks like a few games managed to slip through the radar. A leaked internal document from games retailer GameStop indicates that there are more titles hitting shelves than we were led to believe, chief among them Gravity Rush and Lumines.
Destructoid acquired an update launch list thanks to one of their clever readers, who likely scored the document from a friend or works at GameStop himself. Take a look at the list and see what you like:
Launch Day
Lumines Electronic Symphony --$39.99
Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 --$39.99
Uncharted: Golden Abyss --$49.99
Hot Shots Golf World Invitational --$29.99

ModNation Racers --$29.99
BlazBlue: Continuum Shift Extended --$39.99

The legal battle between Viacom and the creators of Rock Band rages on, with the latest blow being delivered straight to Viacom’s wallet.
Viacom and Harmonix have been in and out of courtrooms for months, trying (and failing) to work out an issue that stems from bonuses paid during the parent company’s acquisition of the small games developer. Both companies are trying to wring high, multi-million dollar settlements out of the other due to this disagreement, but it looks like Viacom is the big loser this morning.
In documents released this week, it was revealed that a private arbitrator ruled that Viacom owes Harmonix and its shareholders a whopping $383 million in unpaid bonuses - a number with which Viacom naturally disagrees.
Here’s a breakdown: In 2006, Viacom acquired Harmonix (and Rock Band). The deal required that Viacom pay big bonuses to Harmonix, with $175 million paid upfront and $150 million paid for Rock Band sales in 2007. However, the company paid no bonuses at all in 2008, and actually demanded that Harmonix return the previous two bonuses. Viacom had to give up Harmonix due to the Rock Band franchise losing money, but Harmonix filed a suit claiming that Viacom still owed $550 million in promised bonuses.
Now we’re just watching the drama unfold. Viacom plans to fight the ruling, which was issued December 19, and is claiming that some evidence was “improperly excluded” from the arbitration hearings.
This one probably has a few months to go and it’s unclear who exactly is right, but Viacom is certainly on the ropes for now. We’ll keep you posted as new details emerge.

Ó

Nintendo may finally be stepping in on one of the most hotly contested issues in the history of gaming.
The Legend of Zelda series began 25 years ago. Since then, we’ve seen a dozen innovative and engaging titles on systems from the Game Boy to the Wii. However, one thing that’s always remained elusive is the way in which these games fit together. Fan-made timelines exist all over the web, but Nintendo’s only response so far has been to refute those theories and argue that there wasn’t an “official” timeline at all.
Of course, things can always change. Hot on the heels of Shigeru Miyamoto mentioning some sort of “master document” at Nintendo HQ, the official Zelda timeline may in fact be a reality. Hyrule Historia, a celebratory book created in honor of the series’ 25th anniversary and officially designed/written by Nintendo, apparently contains the closest thing to an official timeline any of us has ever seen.
Naturally, there are no actual scans of the pages revealing the timeline, only reports from fans that have already obtained the book. According to them, Zelda splits into three timelines instead of the traditionally accepted two. Here’s a breakdown:
First Branch
Skyward Sword
The Minish Cap
Four Swords
Ocarina of Time
Second Branch (When Link becomes a child again)
Majora’s Mask
Twilight Princess
Four Swords Adventure
Wind Waker (new Link)
Phantom Hourglass
Spirit Tracks
Third Branch (assumes Link was defeated in Ocarina of Time?!)
A Link to the Past
Oracle of Ages/Seasons
Link’s Awakening
The Legend of Zelda
The Adventure of Link
Personally, I’ve always subscribed to the “Legends” theory – each Zelda game is a legend and is meant to be taken completely on its own. But, that’s just me. We’ll keep you posted as details emerge - it’s entirely possible this is the long-awaited Zelda timeline.
What do you think about the three-timeline theory? Too weird? Too complex?

Ó

Apparently, the “no-sue” clause in the PS3’s latest EULA update didn’t sit well with a few hundred of its players.
Remember earlier this year, when PSN somehow got hacked and then went down for the better part of two weeks? The issue was a disaster for Sony, who scrambled to do damage control and get everything working again while assuring players their information was safe. Once Sony had everything figured out, they updated their EULA with an interesting clause – one that barred users from participating in class-action lawsuits.
Many saw the change as a shady method to injure the rights of players; after all, very few people actually pore through EULAs and other TOS agreements. The change was also seen as a way to protect Sony from its own incompetence – if it was hacked again, at least players couldn’t rally together and bring a huge suit against the company. Or, at least, that was the goal.
Now, the class-action lawsuit blocking clause has resulted in, you guessed it, a class-action lawsuit. The suit, brought by PlayStation owners in Northern California, claims that Sony participated in unfair business practices by changing the terms of service on a product that customers have essentially already paid for. The idea is simple: you earn access to PSN when you buy your PS3, so Sony can’t change the EULA unless they’re prepared to refund the system cost to players that don’t want to continue.
The suit also harangues Sony for putting the clause at the end of a 21-page document that can only be viewed on the PS3 console.
What do you think is going to happen with this suit? Will Sony be forced to change the EULA back to its original wording? Should companies be allowed to block class-action lawsuits?

There’s still a bit of gas left in the holiday game release schedule, even though most of the big titles have already launched. We’re at that sweet spot right now between Skyward Sword and Old Republic, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t a few awesome games coming out in the next few days. Well, some awesome DLC at least.
