Ne, das wollen die bei Blu-Ray Filmen auch umsetzen.Das ist doch ein PR Gag von Microsoft/Nintendo, oder?
Ist doch eh wieder nichts als Panikmache, immer das gleiche Theather...

Bei Blu Ray Filmen? Du verarschst mich doch.
Zum kotzen. Mir geht schon diese "Jetzt nur ein Spot" Kacke im Fernsehen auf den Senkel. Aber in Videospielen und gekauften Filmen? Wenn ich 40+ Euro für ein Produkt bezahle, erwarte ich eigentlich, von der Firma als Kunde, d.h. mit Respekt, behandelt zu werden und nicht als reines Publikum für Werbebotschaften. Eigentlich eine Frechheit, dass man als Konzern auf seiner eigenen Lebensgrundlage rumtrampeln kann.Ich hoffe sehr, dass sowas nicht wirklich auch noch kommt.
Bei MGS 5 gibt es dann nach jeden Kapitel erst mal 5 Minuten Werbung um die Installation zu überbrücken...;-)
da MGS5 exklusiv für Xbox 360 kommt, sollte es solche Installationen gott sei dank nicht mehr geben

Ja, bei gekauften Filmen. Allerdings wird das über das Internet gestreamt und man kann es abschalten. ;-)Bei Blu Ray Filmen? Du verarschst mich doch.

SMH: Sony to sell ad space in PS3 games
Sony announced Friday that it will start offering virtual advertising space in PlayStation 3 games as part of efforts to stem losses from the console.
Players may see the ads in spaces such as billboards and wall surfaces within the games, it said.
"Various game titles are played by fans who like certain things, which can offer opportunities for targeted ads," said a Sony spokesman.
"Online games allow greater flexibility for advertisers as to when, where and how long to advertise," he said.
Sony has teamed up with in-game advertisement firms Double Fusion and IGA Worldwide for the new service, which will be available mainly in Japan, North America and Europe, the spokesman said.
Sony has sold about 13 million PS3 units since it was launched two years ago but has struggled to break even on the console amid tough competition from rival Nintendo's Wii.
The group has previously said it hopes its game unit will return to profit in the current fiscal year.

Bloomberg: Square Enix shares jump following FFXIII move to 360
Square Enix Co., creator of the ``Final Fantasy'' series of role-playing games, rose the most in more than a month after Microsoft Corp. said the developer will offer a new installment of the video game that's compatible with the Xbox 360 console.
Square Enix gained 5.2 percent to close at 3,250 yen on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, the biggest advance since May 22. The benchmark Nikkei 225 Stock Average fell 2 percent.
``Final Fantasy XIII'' will be available on the Xbox 360 in the U.S. and Europe, Redmond, Washington-based Microsoft said in a statement yesterday. The game will be offered in Japan for Sony Corp.'s PlayStation 3 console and not the Xbox 360, Misa Tokunaga, a spokeswoman at Tokyo-based Square Enix, said by phone today.
``Square Enix is adopting a flexible strategy for releasing game software,'' said Takeshi Koyama, an analyst at Mizuho Securities Co. in Tokyo with a ``buy'' rating on the company. ``The share price movement today reflects that investors welcome the news.''
Sales of the previous installment, which runs on Sony's and Microsoft's game consoles, reached 5.6 million copies, Square Enix said.

Sony Ericsson sees net profits fall 97%, looks to cut 2,000 jobs
Sony Ericsson warned the world just over a fortnight ago that things wouldn't be too rosy when it came time to announce Q2 results, and rosy things are not. Even though the handset maker was hoping and praying to break even at the end of the quarter, net profits ended up falling through the floor to the tune of 97%. As predicted, weak sales of mid-to-high-end mobiles were blamed for the bulk of the bad news, and it did affirm that conditions would remain rough for the rest of the year. Granted, the looming launch of the Xperia X1 should help matters a bit, but without a new stable of low-end cellies to send to emerging markets, it'll be a long road back to the top. Unfortunately, SE's sagging position in the market has left it slashing 2,000 jobs across the globe, though it didn't say exactly where the cuts would be made. It's okay SE, there's only one place to go when you're laying on the bottom... or something like that.

Nintendo Loses Controller Patent Lawsuit
kryogen1x alerts us to coverage at 1up indicating that Nintendo controller may soon become scarce — Nintendo lost in court to Anascape over analog sticks in their Wii and GameCube controllers.This isn't the first time the big manufacturers have been targeted in lawsuits involving features in their controllers. From the article:
"The lawsuit concerns the analog sticks in the Classic Controller and GameCube controllers, which Texas-based Anascape Ltd. claims to hold a patent on that Nintendo violated. The court has ruled in favor of Anascape, and US District Judge Ron Clark has rejected Nintendo's request for a new trial. As a result, Clark said he will put a ban on the sale of the controllers (which includes sales of GameCube systems) starting tomorrow, July 23, unless Nintendo posts a bond or puts royalties into an escrow account."

Wozu ein Büro, wenn man 1.) nen guten Anwalt, 2.) ein "Patent" hat.
Sag ich doch
Aber irgendwie ists schon krass, wie in den USA mit Patenten Schindluder getrieben wird. Bin gespannt, wie der Federal Court entscheidet...

Das stimmt. Wenn man heute was entwickelt, muss man sich schon sehr absichern, sonst wird einem später der Arsch aus der Hose geklagt.

Microsoft gaming segment posts full-year profits
Entertainment and Devices division ends up $426 million in the black off of more than $8 billion in sales.
By Brendan Sinclair, GameSpot
Posted Jul 23, 2008 4:55 pm PT
Nintendo's Wii may have finally overcome the Xbox 360's one-year head start last week when its US retail sales surpassed those of Microsoft's latest console, but it wasn't all bad news for the software giant. While the gaming world was focused on the E3 Media & Business Summit, Microsoft released its financial results for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year.
Sales and net profits were up for both the quarter and the full year on a company-wide scale. The Entertainment and Devices division that houses the Xbox 360 line also posted positive results, including its first-ever full-year operating profit.
For the 12 months ended June 30, the Xbox division raked in $426 million in operating profits off more than $8.1 billion in sales. That's up 34 percent from about $6.1 billion in revenues the year before, with an operating loss of nearly $2 billion.
Just in the three months ended June 30, revenues for the division were almost $1.6 billion, up 37 percent from nearly $1.2 billion the previous fourth quarter. Entertainment and Devices also posted an operating loss of $188 million, trimmed considerably from more than $1.2 billion in last year's fourth quarter.
Microsoft attributed the full-year spike to increased Xbox 360 sales, and singled out Halo 3, Xbox Live, and accessory sales as specific revenue drivers. The publisher shipped 8.7 million consoles for the full fiscal year, compared with 6.6 million in the previous 12 months. For the fourth fiscal quarter, it shipped out 1.3 million Xbox 360 ystems, up from 700,000 for the comparable time period of 2007.
Microsoft's Entertainment and Devices division includes the Xbox 360, Zune, and Windows-based PC gaming, as well as other products like the Surface touchscreen table and Mediaroom Internet TV service.
