They are going to chuck the boomarang controller design too (and it won't come back ). Thats good news as well, since it looks like crap

Also the way that I've read that the Playstation Online Network (please tell me there is a snazzier name then that) will generate funds is through downloadable content...that may seem good, initially, for the end user, but how many people are going to buy stuff for their game when the 'other white meat' has it for free. Just a thought I had. But, i could be totally wrong on that, so who knows.
