Did you read?

16k was the last statistic.

A few days ago, you may recall that we reported the PlayStation 3 sold about 16.5k systems in Japan for the week ending April 12th

They sold 57k units last week.

According to retail tracker Sinobi, they record sales of the PlayStation 3 for last week tallying to a total of 57k units!

It makes no difference to nintendo, if their hardware sells they make money.

And Audioboxer, I'm sorry, I forgot we're not suppose to look down on your beloved PS3.

Butthurt much?

Butthurt? Hardly. If you just correct a mistake you at least point it out in a better way, instead of starting off with that sorta comment. Act a bit more friendly and I will as well.

We had a few good games last year (Star Ocean was great, SO2 was good too but they added so much to the first one that I felt the second one was inferior lol but back on the PSX it was one of my favorite games)

well they had to translate it and everything. Japanese games take a long time to get to us (well at least RPGs) so it makes sense that it would be the same the other way around

Well yeah, but RPGs like the ones the Japanese make have way more text to translate than something like Mass Effect.

I'm not sure since I haven't played Mass Effect yet (not a big fan of "Western" RPGs) but isn't there a lot of voices etc ? That can take a long time too....if not longer than text

    • Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI by Pradeep Viswanathan Noam Shazeer is best known as one of the co-authors of the 2017 “Attention Is All You Need” paper, which introduced the Transformer architecture that now powers most large language models. He also worked on several major Google AI projects, including LaMDA, before leaving the company in 2021 to co-found Character.AI. He also authored the Sparsely-gated Mixture of Experts (2016) paper, which is popular among the AI community. After falling behind OpenAI and Anthropic a couple of years ago, Google brought Shazeer back in 2024 as part of a major deal with Character.AI. Through this deal, along with Noam, several other researchers returned to Google DeepMind. More recently, he was a vice president of engineering at Google and a technical co-lead for Gemini. Today, Noam Shazeer announced on X that he is leaving Google and joining OpenAI. In his post, Shazeer said it was a difficult decision to move on, adding that he was proud of the Google team and what it had built together. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman welcomed the move with a post of his own, saying Shazeer was one of the people he had most wanted to work with since OpenAI’s early days. Google has made strong progress with Gemini over the past year, closing the gap with OpenAI in several areas. But losing Noam Shazeer is a major talent setback for them, especially after bringing him back less than two years ago by spending a fortune. For OpenAI, the hire adds one of the industry’s most experienced language model researchers to a team that is already pushing ahead with ChatGPT, Codex, and its next generation of frontier models.
