New Bioware project?
We’re fairly certain that these images come from a developer kit of some sort, but cannot confirm it (not that we would be able to anyway, probably against all sorts of NDAs). We ARE certain they are real, as the source has been trusted in the past, not certain what is being hidden though, probably early content? Is it related to Mass Effect 2, after all, there is mention of space, or is it something entirely different? We don’t know. If we had to wager, it would be Mass Effect 1 DLC, but like I said, I dunno.

If it was DLC for Mass Effect, it'd be addded to the Mass Effect page, not have its own page.
And to state the obvious:
PS3 Price Cut Coming Very Soon, says Analyst
In his latest industry note, Janco Partners analyst Mike Hickey states that "recent channel checks indicate increased speculation for a PS3 price cut announcement from Sony in the next couple of days." Sony's been avoiding a price drop on its PS3 hardware, instead focusing on trying to turn the PS3 business into a profitable one. However, with hardware sales for the console floundering, most industry pundits believe Sony has little choice if it wishes to stay competitive with Microsoft and Nintendo.
"Sony is meeting with retailers this week in Phoenix, where SCEA is holding its annual Destination Playstation conference. We think the company needs to reduce the current price by $100 to effectively restart unit velocity at retail," commented Hickey.

No exact figures but...
http://news.vgchartz.com/news.php?id=3045
VGChartz today recieved confirmation in a discussion with Sony Computer Entertainment America that Killzone 2 is the highest pre-ordered first party PS3 title to date.
SCEA looked at the pre-order data two weeks out from launch for Killzone 2 and measured it against the same timeframe for its other major first-party titles including LittleBigPlanet, Resistance 2 and Gran Turismo 5 Prologue

I originally posted this in the comment section for the "Lesbian banned from Live after admitting sexual preference" story but its awaiting moderation so I'm reposting it here...
Stephen Toulouse (XBL Banhammer guy) tweeted about this on twitter earlier:
re: the consumerist story. Expression of any sexual orientation (straight or gay or otherswise) is not allowed in gamertags (cont)
However we’ve heard from the user base they want that capability, so I am examining how we can provide it in a way that wont get misused
I can’t say any more at the moment, except to say I’m working right now in finding a way to safely express relationship preference.

Okay... this news report seems to suggest a.... 360 price drop for Europe? :-o
Or rather, a 'cash back' initiative. Buy a 360 between now and the end of May and you can claim up to 50euros back.

Counter to the PS3's envitable price cut me thinks.

.Now that your heart has hit 190bpm... I should clarify. This does not mean that they are leaving gaming, it means the Games division no longer exists and is now a subsidiary of a larger division that also includes the Sony Vaio and the Walkman. :)
