“We’ve been looking at DLC on the Wii for a long time, and with Guitar Hero 3, it was the first Guitar Hero game on the Wii. It was the first third-party WiFi title with online play. That took a lot of effort to be able to do that. We didn’t have the time, and the infrastructure and stuff wasn’t in place [at the time], for DLC [in GH3].” – CEO Karthik Bala, Vicarious Visions

So, we’re definitely getting a hard drive at E3…Right?! Well, I darn well hope so. I don’t know about you guys, but my “virtual refrigerator” has been cleaned one too many times.

Gamers play their games for various reasons. Some experience them for fun, some to escape from reality for a short while, and others for brain training. If you’re a male, however, the main reason as to why you play a game might be due to the satisfaction of conquering things – people, territory – you name it. An experiment was conducted in which both males and females were hooked up to wires and were given the task of obtaining territory in a video game. In the end, it was determined that the men “were a lot more motivated to succeed.”

So, why do you game? And do you earn a big sense of achievement from winning?
