Or a real contender? Sony announces Wii competition. I have always been a big supporter of the Eye-Toy, and was sad to see development disappear as quickly as it arrived (ok, maybe not AS quick, but think dramatic effect …). Do you think that Sony has a legitimate shot as challenging the Wii? Is it about the technology or the branding (this was brought up at a round-table discussion in a manner of sorts last fall at MiGS).

About Kelly Boudreau

I have a PhD in Film Studies with a strong focus on Game Studies from Université de Montréal. With a BA & MA in Sociology, my research focuses on the player/avatar relationship specifically addressing the processes through which the potential for hybrid-identity can emerge during video game play. Other research interests have centered on forms of mediated sociality ranging from the dynamics of social identification in online computer games and virtual worlds to the fusion of internet activity and everyday life. I am also a Rock(band) star and mother of two fantastic young women.
