As it was announced, Paris Hilton appeared on May 11 at the Electronic Entertainment Expo in the Los Angeles Convention Center, in order to introduce her mobile phones game, ‘Paris Hilton’s Jewel Jam’. Not long ago Paris Hilton Entertainment Inc. signed a deal with video game maker Gameloft to develop and produce a series of mobile phones featuring the Hilton heiress.

At E3, Paris Hilton came, as usually, late to unveiled her new video game which she called it ‘Diamondquest’. Yes, it wasn’t her best day saying the wrong name of her game among fans and photographers. Flying with a green mini-dress and with the boobs half out, Paris Hilton ‘advised them’ to download the game, although ‘Paris Hilton’s Jewel Jam’ which can be played on a cell phone, will be available this summer.

Sorry I’m late. I’m really excited to have my new video game, ‘Diamondquest.’ Thank you all for coming, and you can download the game.

Good news on games filed, more exactly for the fans of the game World of Warcraft, because Blizzard Entertainment Inc. has negotiated a deal with Legendary Pictures concerning the feature film development of Blizzard’s popular “Warcraft” games. World of Warcraft is just one of the popular game titles being turned into movies and its official site will be keeping their fans and players updated on the progress whenever possible.

Unlike other video games, Warcraft’s hard part has already been done for the writers of the screenplay: the history of the world, the creature designs, and even many of the main characters have already been created in detail. However, we have to admit that Legendary Pictures did a wonderful job with Batman Begins and Superman Returns, it shouldn’t be too hard to make this good game, a good movie also.

Much hype is floating about the next generation gaming consoles around the internet. Will Playstation 3 take the lead? Will Xbox 360 do better? Such questions are being debated in all the major forums and blogs of the world. At this point of time can Sony afford to loose its fans? Can Sony take the chance of increasing the prices due to reasons which may not benefit the majority of its crowd? Well, that is what is happening. Sony is planning to release the Playstation 3 with support for Blu-Ray format DVDs. Though some argue that like other brands Sony too is planning an unique feature to its console, but is it at the expensive of loosing its fans! It is most definite that as of now games won’t benefit from Blu-Ray DVDs.

Although larger amounts of data would be loaded on a single DVD, it hardly matters as one or two DVDs is anyways the maximum any game would require. The Blu-Ray does have a substantial edge over the consoles in the sense of its future security and ability to support a variety of DVDs.

However Sony must realize that in a price sensitive market where profits are anyways cut-throat it can’t afford chances with something which isn’t fully cooked. It would be a much better idea to provide Blu-Ray DVD compatibility in future models of the console, when they would have greater need.

As of now Sony should focus on providing better graphics and physics for its games. After all who cares what DVD format the game is in, the graphics is the first thing considered by all followed by physics units. Moreover it would be a good idea to consider a price reduction as well as that can help rocket sales.

Whatever Sony may say, Blu-Rays are not going to play or make better games, at least not in the near future!
