CNETNate writes "It's a global first for Microsoft, and massive news for Xbox owners. Redmond and the largest pay TV service in the UK mdash; Sky, owned in part by Rupert Murdoch's News Corp mdash; has tied a deal that brings simulcast TV, sports, entertainment shows, pay-per-view movies and back catalogue television to the Xbox 360. It's an entirely streamed service, offering no download-to-own content, and partly rivals the BBC iPlayer, which is available on UK PlayStation consoles and the Nintendo Wii. The service will go live later in the year at no cost to existing subscribers, and screenshots show it fits in seamlessly with the Xbox Live interface."pa href="http://games.slashdot.org/story/09/05/29/045233/Xbox-To-Get-Live-TV-and-Massive-VOD-Update?from=rss"img src="http://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?from=rssamp;op=imageamp;style=h0amp;sid=09/05/29/045233"/a/ppa href="http://games.slashdot.org/story/09/05/29/045233/Xbox-To-Get-Live-TV-and-Massive-VOD-Update?from=rss"Read more of this story/a at Slashdot./p pa href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/27fXAcAZ6ga-DviUO4gm2Vkvu1o/0/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/27fXAcAZ6ga-DviUO4gm2Vkvu1o/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/abr/ a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/27fXAcAZ6ga-DviUO4gm2Vkvu1o/1/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/27fXAcAZ6ga-DviUO4gm2Vkvu1o/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/a/pimg src="http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~r/Slashdot/slashdot/~4/Y-Ae-0YaDuE" height="1" width="1"/

adeelarshad82 writes "CNet reports on a bizarre comment from Sony's Computer Entertainment CEO in response to complaints from developers on how hard it is to develop games for the Playstation 3. 'We don't provide the "easy to program for" console that (developers) want, because "easy to program for" means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so then the question is, what do you do for the rest of the nine-and-a-half years?' Given that games heavily drive console sales, and the fact that the PS3 is already 8 million units behind the Xbox 360, I think making a developer's job harder is the last thing Sony needs."pa href="http://games.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/03/01/1522259amp;from=rss"img src="http://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?from=rssamp;op=imageamp;style=h0amp;sid=09/03/01/1522259"/a/ppa href="http://games.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/03/01/1522259amp;from=rss"Read more of this story/a at Slashdot./p pa href="http://feedads.googleadservices.com/~at/zcUig-OGWXH9BMeRhfswnE2reeA/a"img src="http://feedads.googleadservices.com/~at/zcUig-OGWXH9BMeRhfswnE2reeA/i" border="0" ismap="true"/img/a/pimg src="http://feeds2.feedburner.com/~r/Slashdot/slashdot/~4/5HzG9JNwX4w" height="1" width="1"/

ElementC writes "Team Twiizers, the group behind almost all of the Wii Homebrew scene, has released an update to the Homebrew Channel (and installer) that allows for installation on a Wii with the most recent update installed. While the team still recommends against installing the Nintendo update, those who accidentally updated or purchase games that require the update are no longer left out to dry. This update to the Homebrew Channel also adds SDHC support, a feature Nintendo has not implemented in vanilla Wiis. The community has also created an app that updates just the Wii Shop Channel mdash; allowing users to purchase Wiiware and Virtual Console games without losing their homebrew. It took the team only two days to get the fix out."pa href="http://games.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/10/27/060224amp;from=rss"img src="http://slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?from=rssamp;op=imageamp;style=h0amp;sid=08/10/27/060224"/a/ppa href="http://games.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/10/27/060224amp;from=rss"Read more of this story/a at Slashdot./p pa href="http://feedads.googleadservices.com/~a/VYyWGsHEf9GCzSxS4m5aKhm0_BY/a"img src="http://feedads.googleadservices.com/~a/VYyWGsHEf9GCzSxS4m5aKhm0_BY/i" border="0" ismap="true"/img/a/pimg src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Slashdot/slashdot/~4/V3s9TV2gkRE" height="1" width="1"/
