If you missed last night's Sony press conference, you missed history
You've probably already heard that Mr. Gabe Newell of Valve - a.k.a. PlayStation's biggest troll - debuted Portal 2 there, after a rousing apology to PlayStation fans. Before showing off Portal 2, Newell declared that because of the open-nature of the PlayStation platform,...
E3 2010 Sony Announce US Collector's Edition For Gran Turismo 5
Hey readers, do you like Gran Turismo 5? Odds are, you probably do, and still have a few tears in your eyes from Sony's November 2nd date-bomb just last night
Now you know the date though, you're probably turning your attention to a collector's edition, right? Well, Sony's just detailed it. The Gran Turismo 5 collector's edition in the US will run...
News SCEE Confirm Heavy Rain: Move Edition Re-Release
Sony's reportedly confirmed to VG247 that they will be re-releasing Heavy Rain later this year with PlayStation Move support
As yet there's no date for the re-release, but it seems like a good Move (geddit?) for Sony to make. Heavy Rain ended up having a surprising amount of mainstream appeal, and it once again secures the PlayStation Move as a...

Sony has revealed the first details regarding SingStar: Dance and SingStar: Guitar; the latest spin-offs in Studio London's SingStar franchise

E3 2010 David Jaffe & Scott Campbell Talk Twisted Metal
One of the best highlights of this year's E3 was unveiling of Twisted Metal -- a game that David Jaffe had somehow thrown us off the scent
We truly believed it wasn't coming. But then, right at the end of that E3 conference, Sweet Tooth. The game's looking just as chaotic as it should, which perhaps didn't translate quite as good as it should during...

E3 2010 Thought You'd Seen The Last Of Kratos? God Of War: Ghost Of Sparta Says Not!
Kratos is back
Again. And while this trailer for Ready At Dawn's upcoming PlayStation Portable hack-and-slash is incredibly light, it's the kind of debut trailer we've come to expect for a God Of War game. From what we've seen of God Of War: Ghost Of Sparta, it's shaping up very nicely. If you want technical spectacle from your PSP (who doesn't),...
E3 2010 thatgamecompany Detail Their Third PlayStation Network Exclusive, Journey
Journey is pretty much everything you've come to expect from thatgamecompany, the folks who brought you flower
Despite the somewhat covert announcement (c'mon Sony, this should have been mentioned in your press conference), Journey promises "simple gameplay and accessible controls." Naturally it looks super pretty to boot. We're getting an...
E3 2010 First Sly Cooper Collection Trailer Has Us Excited
You can't beat a good re-release -- and with 3D and HD upscaling, the Sly Cooper Collection looks to be exactly that
While we were a bit disappointed by the lack of a Team ICO collection last night, this Sly Cooper Collection's looking very pretty indeed. The Sly games were good, so we're excited.
E3 2010 Heroes On The Move Brings Your Favourite Characters Together
Fanboy overload -- you're telling me that Heroes On The Move features Ratchet, Jak and Sly Cooper? Hell yes
Still not entirely sure what the game's all about, but it definitely features PlayStation Move and we're definitely excited — we've been waiting for a PlayStation mascot "get-together" for some time. Here's hoping Sackboy cameos.
E3 2010 Sony Announce PlayStation Surround Sound System
Sony's announced that they're to release this rather rad looking all-in-one surround sound system for the PlayStation 3
The solitary sound bar uses Sony's S-Force PRO Front Surround Sound to create some, presumably, deep sounds without the expense, space consumption and hassle of a full surround sound set. It actually looks cool, we're kinda...
E3 2010 Pityoma Heads To The PlayStation Portable This Summer
One-time PlayStation 3 oddball, Pityoma, has been announced for release on the PlayStation Portable this summer
The game's essentially a puzzle-title with a twist involving eggs and hens. It's a "chain the colours" affair at its core though. Still, seems like the type of game that's perfect for the PSP, right? Right.
E3 2010 Everybody's/Hot Shots Tennis Demo Hits The PlayStation Store Today
SCEE's announced that a demo for Everybody's Tennis will hit the PlayStation Store today
The game's due later this year, but the demo should give you a taste of what to expect from the tennis RPG. We love tennis games (too much), so we're excited. We kinda wished this was a PlayStation Move title though.
E3 2010 Patapon 3 Heads To The PlayStation Portable
Despite rumours claiming Patapon 3 was about to make the jump to the big-screen, Sony's revealed that the latest iteration in the rhythmn RPG is set to release on the PSP
This time, the game's all about playing with friends via ad-hoc or Internet Infrastructure, a pretty big change to the franchise. There are even competitive modes in this new...
E3 2010 Your First Look At PlayStation Move's European Packaging
Gamerzines has your first look at PlayStation Move's packaging here in Europe
While the stand-alone peripherals for the PlayStation Move controller and Navigation Controller fit in-line with other PlayStation peripherals, the Move Starter Kit packaging is a bit more bold and in-your face. Doesn't look particularly offensive to us. Pricing seems good...
E3 2010 MotorStorm: Apocalypse Trailer Is All About Falling Buildings
MotorStorm games have always been fun
But we honestly couldn't imagine how they could get more fun than Pacific Rift. That game, for us, is the pinnacle of arcade racing. But that's why we're not game designers, and developers Evolution Studios are. The answer, of course, was to include falling buildings. And plenty of falling buildings there are in...
E3 2010 PlayStation Move "Zapper" Is Sort Of Shameless, But Super Awesome
Every motion controller needs a good light-gun docking station, right? (Apart from Microsoft's Kinect, 'cos you are the controller - pew
pew!) Well PlayStation Move's kicks some serious ass. Kinda. Sure, it's sorta a shameless play on what Nintendo did with the Wii Zapper - but look at it! It looks like it came straight out of a flippin' sci-fi...
E3 2010 Kung-Fu Rider Looks Suitably Ridiculous
The pitch: you're an office worker, riding an standard office chair down a hill, trying to escape the Japanese mafia
Yep, we wish we were getting more games out of you this generation, Japan Studio. Still, Kung-Fu Rider looks brilliant.
E3 2010 Eye Pet Does "Cute" In Your Pocket
Sony's confirmed that their under-rated augmented reality release, Eye Pet, is headed to the PlayStation Portable

News Cross-Game Chat Finally Makes Its Way To The PlayStation 3
After what seems like an eternity of nagging, Sony has finally confirmed that cross-game chat is heading to the PlayStation 3
But will the nagging cease? No. See, as much as people want cross-game chat (enough to moan and moan in every message board we visit), they object to the idea of it being part of the PlayStation Plus package. So, you guys...
E3 2010 Sony Launch The PlayStation Plus Website, Cross-Game Chat Rumoured

Kotaku's reporting, via a retail source, that Sony are set to lift the lid on Twisted Metal X and a brand new Patapon title for the PlayStation 3 tonight

News E3 2010 Rumour: Three PlayStation Collections To Debut At Sony Press Conference
Sounds like Sony are targeted the upgraded PlayStation 2 collection market pretty hard

Hold us. Alongside their weekly update, team SingStar's revealed "some very exciting announcements from SingStar at this weeks E3." This wouldn't have anything to do with a little rumour we posted earlier would it? That's right, sounds like SingStar: Dance is on the cards. We like some SingStar
E3 2010 PlayStation Move Robot Tech Demo Can Move The Way You Do
Look, he's got Wolverine claws

E3 2010 Latest SOCOM 4 Hands-On Demo Reveals Massive Upgrade
The original SOCOM 4 unveiling was a little underwhelming to us
Seemingly thrown in at the end of Sony's GDC coming-out party, the game looked barely finished and, as such, a little uninspiring. But this hands-on preview with IGN's Greg Miller has totally changed our perception. Not only was the game given a glowing write-up, but Greg's also posted...
News Gran Turismo 5 Le Mans Footage Sneaks Onto YouTube
We picked up this YouTube video of Gran Turismo 5 over at VG247
The most striking thing to us is the unbelievable sense of speed when the player's not crashing. Gran Turismo's often been criticised for its inability to convey a real sense of motion, but it looks like they've finally nailed it. Silky smooth. Surely ready for release now?
