It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Project Spark idea was decent but they quickly gave up ..
LBP was wonderful
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
Microsoft didn't force MLB on Xbox. MLB gave Sony 2 options either go multiplat or risk losing the license.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
Interview with Stephen Russell, Actor for (Nick Valentine, Codsworth, My Handy) in Fallout 4 which is a vast open world role playing game set in the apocalyptic wastes of Boston, the Commonwealth. The career goes further with other Bethesda games from Starfield to Prey to The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
This looks like a great way to play.
Rocksmith+, the award winning music-learning app that teaches you guitar and piano with thousands of hit songs, is coming to PlayStation and Steam on June 6, and is available to wishlist now on both platforms.
It hard to compete with Black Friday numbers, the week after black Friday and a release week for a console. With that said, each console did fairly well and the 360 still dominating the USA. So far the Vita is selling fairly well, I can't wait to.see how numbers improve with the 3G/Wifi with a year of plus and Unit 13 is released this week.

Most of the Wii U's will eventually be returned because of piss poor experience.
Multiple hours in now simply trying to get the piece of shite to connect to the internet and update, on a wifi network that had worked flawlessly on every other single device out there from iPhones to Android phones and X-Box 360's to iMac's.
Just saying... If this expereince is typical, the Wii U is DOA.
Just about ready to box mine up and take it back.
Xbox360 continues to dominate the software sales list.
guesstimates at best. We wont have to wait long before the Big 3 release their quarterly reports. Seeing as how VGChartz has decided to take Microsoft's numbers at face value yet remain skeptic about Sony's, has me seriously doubting their "Sales analysis" very much. VGchartz tracking has been know to be off by as much a 500,000 when it comes to overtracking the 360. It also undertracks ps3 200,000~75,000. I can't deny that Microsoft has made themselves a major player compared to last generation.
