Survey Says! Sony wants to know what You think about PS3

Gee, who paid for this survey? Though loads of questions are about “how you feel about video games” it ends up being all about the PlayStation 3 and how I view it. Surprisingly, not as bad as a year or two ago. I still watch almost all my movies on it (Netflix Instant Watch aside), feel there’s loads more power to be harnessed inside, and generally like the more relaxed control over PlayStation Network. Some of my favorite experimental indie-type games have been on PSN where all I can think of on Xbox 360 is Braid. The price cut can only help but there are still just a few PS3 exclusives worth recommending to people. Is it too late for Sony to dominate another generation of gaming? If these things really are going to stick around for another five years there is time but they’ll have to come up with more than mildly clever ad campaigns and comparable price points to do it.

Another EGM reference? Club Nintendo asks for scores

clubnintendosurveyTakin’ it back to the oldest days of EGM, Club Nintendo’s product surveys sometimes ask you to rate the game you bought on a scale of 1 to 100. I was a little confused for a minute, I haven’t seen scores that high in years. The game, by the way, was Pool Revolution and yes, it’s that good for the asking price.

Nintendo may not be at the forefront of the online gaming scene but I was mightily impressed to see that my Club Nintendo account already knew I’d bought Pool Revolution. The survey was just sittin’ there, waiting to expire next December. Good job Nintendo, maybe one day you’ll figure out that whole live Friends list thing.
