Heavy Rain Release Date Trudges Sadly Into View
Don't be sad! Quantic Dreams' interactive cinematic exploration of sorrow now has an official release date of February 23rd. More »MLB 10 The Show Box Features ESPN Pimpage
What's the most notable feature about MLB 10 The Show? I wouldn't say it's the Minnesota Twins catcher Joe Mauer, because you can't see his eyes in either of his two pictures. I'd say it's the front-and-center ESPN endorsement. More »'Green' Cases Don't Do Much for Greenpeace Rankings
Doesn't look like cutting a bunch of plastic out of the standard game cases did much for anyone's Greenpeace ratings. The environmental advocacy group released its quarterly rankings of electronics companies, again tsk-tsking Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo. More »Sony Details PSN Expansion To Other Products
At CES 2010, Sony Computer Entertainment chief Kaz Hirai described long-anticipated plans to unify its PlayStation Network content offerings across its product line - including network enabled Blu-ray players, Sony televisions and PCs. More »Sony: Nearly Four Million PlayStation 3's Sold Over Christmas
Sony's Kaz Hirai took to the stage at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas earlier today, and while up there revealed some impressive sales numbers for the PlayStation 3 over the holiday season. More »Sony Takes on CES 2010: This Time It's Personal!!!
Sony Increasing The Storage Capacity Of Blu-Ray Discs
Sony and Panasonic have announced plans to increase the capacity of Blu-Ray discs (such as those used by PS3 games) from 25GB to 33.4GB. Hideo Kojima will be so pleased! More »Sony Adds 'Cloudsurf' To Cloud Of Trademarks
Just before 2009 came to a close, the Sony Corporation sought trademark protection for something cloudy, but something likely not Final Fantasy VII related, the service "Cloudsurf." That's one of a few "cloud" themed products hinted at by Sony. More »MAG Beta Off To A Rocky Start
Zipper Interactive has launched the promised open beta test for the PlayStation 3's MAG, but early server issues are causing frustration for players unable to connect. More »Sony Puts In-Theatres Movie On PlayStation Store
Earlier this week, Sony accidentally offered Armored - a movie that's still playing in theatres - for download on the PlayStation Store. What's more, they offered it for free. Whoops. More »You Decide Who Wins The Level Of The Year Sackademy Award
Media Molecule has whittled through more than 1.5 million LittleBigPlanet levels to select 10 nominees for the 2009 Level of the Year Sackie award. The rest is up to you. More »MAG Goes To Vegas, Won't Stay In Vegas
Super Street Fighter IV won't be the only game in town during next week's CES convention in Las Vegas. Sony's bringing Zipper Interactive's PlayStation 3 shooter MAG to the show, giving fans a chance to rub elbows and shoot bullets. More »Report: Sony Working On Multi-Core Design For PS4
Just because Sony said that the PS3 would have a ten year life span, that doesn't mean the company isn't apparently moving forward with the PlayStation 4.Sony Trimming More Costs
2009 wasn't the best year for Sony, at least financially. So the Japanese company is looking to trim a little more of its overheads, specifically with the way PlayStation games are distributed. More »12/26/09
Start making servers with the intention of giving every PSN user 100gb of space. Now you charge for that space. Say $20 per year for 25gb of space. $35 - 50gb. And $60 a year for 100gb of space.
What is this space good for? All of our data. At anytime a PSN user can send everything on his system to this Sony cloud he's paying for (20gb, 50gb, or 100gb.) If he has more data on his local hard drive than he is paying for he'll need to delete some stuff or be allowed to select what he wants to back up.
Now his saves, game data, games, PSN downloads, friends, everything at all, is backed up. He can sell his PS3 now, in a pinch say, and then re buy it later. This too increases the likelihood he'll buy new and not used since it could be after an upgrade or some bundle or who-knows-what.

Sooprise, Sooprise: 'PSP-4000' Ad was 'Mistake'
To the shock of very few, the advertisement about a week ago listing a "PSP-4000" in addition to PSPs 1000 through 3000, and the Go, has been disowned by the advertiser, who calls it an error. More »It's White Knight Chronicles, Only This Time In English
Level 5's White Knight Chronicles, a previously Japan-only title, is to be released in the US early next year. Want to see what it looks like in English? More »Sony Promoting Safe Online Play With Handy Website
Game companies, whether they be console manufacturers or publishers, are always the victims of bad press when it comes to keeping kids safe from questionable content online. So it's nice seeing one - Sony - doing something proactive about it. More »2009 In Review: Motion-Control Gaming Grabs The Spotlight
In the dark, distant future, when people write about the history of video games and get to the part labelled "2000-2010", they'll note one thing: 2009 was the beginning of the end for the control pad. More »New Comics Turned Loose On PSP Store
