- Gaming is a $50+ billion industry
- It’s filled with tech people
- They’ve already figured out what everyone else hasn’t

I like where EA is at and I like where EA is going. This is some nice leadership from EA’s CEO John Riccitiello.
Interesting insights from Square Enix CEO:
- potential “impact of [new motion controllers are quite limited, so the impact may be small.”
- Wada expects Nintendo Wii HD by 2011
- In regards to Natal: “As a user interface it’s fantastic and I think it will become standard,”
Time Crisis for iPhone (via TouchArcade)
My eyes grew wide and I stared a bit when I first saw Time Crisis on iPhone. I’ve spent so much of my life playing Time Crisis, you have no idea. More importantly, it’s wonderful to see Namco taking the iPhone as a serious platform for gaming. This is another significant platform title in Namco’s belt coming to the iPhone (Katamari being the first). Kudos to Namco for making a fun port, this isn’t the best-game-ever but as a gamer, I appreciate franchise efforts.
You have my money. Bring us Reiko.
