    Playing the Fool - WSJ.com

    "When the companies entered into their partnership in 2001, Sony, Toshiba and IBM committed themselves to spending $400 million over five years to design the Cell... In late 2002, Microsoft approached IBM about making the chip... Microsoft was interested and contracted with IBM for their own chip, to be built around the core that IBM was still building with Sony... So Microsoft actually got the chip that Sony helped design before Sony did."

    New Crazy Taxi screenshots get wet - PSP Fanboy

    "Crazy Taxi: Fare Wars is coming to PSP in just a few weeks: August 14th, to be precise. Sega recently sent us some screenshots showcasing some of the crazier environments you'll be driving in the upcoming PSP revival. We won't comment on the graphics this time around -- we'll leave that up to you. At the very least, we hope the game will maintain the same fun and charm of the Dreamcast originals."

    I want this for my PSP! Doesn't have great graphics, but I love the gameplay.
