PS3 VS XBOX 360 – Exclusive Games for 2008!
Unblocked Games 67 The reign of the Xbox is almost over. As of late the PS3 has been looking better and better. Looks like 2008 will be the year of the PlayStation. PlayStation 3 has many big name titles coming out this year and if the all games from the list are all actually released this year, all we can say is WOW. Note: The following list in no way represents the entire list of exclusive titles for each console. However, it gives us a pretty good idea of the games rumored to be released this year.
PS3:
Resistance 2 (PS3)
Guaranteed success. While the first was a great game and fairly big success, it was still just a launch title. Imagine what they can do after a couple years and games under their belt. 8 player Co-Op! Expect big things from this game.
Gran Turismo 5 Prologue (PS3)
Another guaranteed success. Anyone who plays Gran Turismo will grab this game. If you’re a fan, you’re a fan. The visuals continue to improve, HD replays, ’nuff said!
Haze (PS3)
Hopefully the game will finally end it’s long series of delays this year. This game promises some intense action, including 4-player co-op, drop-in, drop-out, split-screen, online, or local multiplayer options. The game continues to impress visually, with not only the quality of graphics, but the very cool, unique design elements.
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (PS3)
Who doesn’t know about this game? The game is still months away and is already epic. If any game could live up to the hype this game has garnered, leave it to Solid Snake, old or young. Like most of the games on this list, the visuals are amazing. The game looks to pack in an enormous amount of story and gameplay. The game features a immense arsenal of weapons and combat/stealth moves. If you own a PS3, you are almost required to buy this. You know you will.
What Is the Relevance of Technology?
Look Wellsaid Vocalid Aihao Mit Technologyreview “Technology in the long-run is irrelevant”. That is what a customer of mine told me when I made a presentation to him about a new product. I had been talking about the product’s features and benefits and listed “state-of-the-art technology” or something to that effect, as one of them. That is when he made his statement. I realized later that he was correct, at least within the context of how I used “Technology” in my presentation. But I began thinking about whether he could be right in other contexts as well.
What is Technology?

2

Wikipedia defines it as:
Technology (from Greek τÎχνη, techne, “art, skill, cunning of hand”; and -λογία, -logia[1]) is the making, modification, usage, and knowledge of tools, machines, techniques, crafts, systems, and methods of organization, in order to solve a problem, improve a preexisting solution to a problem, achieve a goal, handle an applied input/output relation or perform a specific function.

Home Sales So Far This Spring Surprise Experts
Craigslist Vt With many economic and real estate experts anticipating dismal sales right through 2010, the final numbers tallied up for the end of February have resulted in a bit of surprise. February is consistently a poorly performing month for real estate sales; the weather is poor and the spring housing market has usually not yet perked up. Yet, the number of pending home sales in February are up a whopping 8.2 percent since January, according to NAR.
Winter weather across most of the country was partly responsible for poor real estate numbers over most of the winter in addition to the annually lower winter sales; but where normally the spring pick up starts in March, this year has seen a surprising pickup in sales already in chilly February.
The increased pending home sales are undoubtedly a result of the countdown to the expiration of the current extension of the home buyers’ tax credit which requires that a binding sales contract is signed no later than April 30th with a completed closing by June 30th.
In the fall, when the countdown to the original home buyers’ tax credit was due to expire, there was a huge rush for home buyers to cash in on this government program. Many home buyers took advantage of the program and rushed to buy a home before the anticipated expiry date. However, since the program had encouraged so many home buyers to purchase a home, the government decided to extend the program until April 30th and also open it up to more than just first time home buyers as well.
