Home Delayed Until Spring 08


Kaz Hirai today announced that Sony Computer Entertainment is delaying the release of the Playstation Home until the spring of 2008. He told reporters that the team wanted to spend more time developing the user interface platform.

Hirai went on to apologize for the delay, insisting that the service must spend more time in development so gamers around the world can experience the game when it is ready.

The Keynote Speech

"My name is Wil Wheaton and Jack Thompson can suck my balls."

If there's one thing Wil Wheaton knows how to do, it's get a reaction from a crowd. Whether he's inciting the ire of millions as Wesley Crusher on Star Trek or kicking off PAX 07 with his keynote speech, he never fails to make an impression. He makes his way onto the stage with dramatic musical accompaniment, citing the above line to an adoring crowd. After railing through every gamer cliche' that one could imagine and dropping a few f-bombs along the way, he begins recounting his days as a young nerd playing video games in the local arcade. He compares his generation's love of the old arcade to this generations attachment to World of Warcraft and Xbox Live. These, he says, are the arcades of today. The crowd is in the palm of his hand as he moves on from arcade classics to home consoles, hitting every classic title along the way and filling everyone's heads with nostalgic memories of the golden age of gaming.

GDC 07: Sony's Pre-Game Soccer Funtime

Before Phil Harrison took the stage yesterday to deliver his keynote, we were treated to a sneak peek at the real future of interactive entertainment, and as I predicted it does involve playing with giant balls.

Please excuse the quality of the picture, the shakiness of the camera, and my inexplicable use of the word bastards multiple times. I have no idea where that came from. Incidentally, Team B completely owned Team A, with only the promise of LittleBigPlanet staving off the inevitable soccer riot.

TGS06: Kutaragi's Keynote A Rerun?

Our very spunky part-time British bird Alice spotted an intriguing observation made by Rod over at Gaming Edge about Ken Kutaragi's TGS 06 keynote: it's almost point-for-point the same damn speech he delivered 6 years ago. More »

TGS06: Kutaragi's Keynote (Real Quick)

Ribbon cutting, line waiting, and Sony's Ken Kutaragi talking. A lot. Here's how TGS gets its warm-up on. Do note: Before the keynote, we were given a flier that said we could only show 15 seconds of footage from Kutaragi's speech. I asked an event organizer why? Her reply: My boss told me too. Well, we are no match for that kind of logic.

Video: Will Wright Explodes Brains at GDC

Just in case you thought all of that talk about Will Wright's giant brain hurting everyone during his GDC keynote was crap, I've uploaded a taste of the brainy blather. This is Wright addressing why the existence of life is so... or rather that radioactive...um, that life spreads really...actually, I have no idea what the video is about.

Pics Of Sony GDC Keynote On Flickr

From what I hear, cameras during Phil Harrison's keynote were a big no-no, but some ninja photographer managed to snap a few blurry pics of Sony's PlayStation 3 demos. Hungry for a look at what you'll (maybe) be playing this November? Get your dark, out-of-focus shots of Ratchet & Clank, Resistance: Fall of Man, Motorstorm, Warhawk and more, including a look at the network interface and graphical demos, at the link. More »
