The PS3 allows you to run in-game instruction manuals though. So surely, the same way PC games are done these days with PDFs, they could put a much longer and in-depth manual on the game disc? Read more

@excel_excel: It's as much the "Playstation Phone" as my HTC. Both play PSone games. One just happens to be made by a subsidiary of the same company that makes the Playstation consoles. All the other Xperias can run Playstation games too. And there's nothing stopping other phone makes creating phones with similar… Read more

@spideykid0: He didn't use them because at the moment they don't work. No official games to play that support them. (SNES, NES, GB and a fair chunk of the PSone library didn't use analog sticks) Read more

@Kryptolojik: The codename is actually "Zeus" (which it states in the article), the production name is "Sony Erricson Xperia Play", which is what it'll be sold as when you go n buy your phone. Read more

@Paacman: Nah, it's still got quibbles(main article mentions the battery pack covering the power button) but that's definitely nearing production quality and I doubt the overall shape and layout will change. Read more

@Mokon: Except other sectors increased. PC game sales in particular had a healthy 13% bump iirc. Read more

I'll just copy paste my response from there Read more

@yamatosword: Bravia TV's have a XMB interface and connect to PSN. They're not "The PSP TV" are they? Read more

@ACE_CLOUD: More like a touch panel not a touch screen from what I've heard. Like a touch pad on a laptop, or the Magic Mouse on Macs. Read more

@koreos: Rockpapershotgun Read more

@lazy.Lemming: Read the bottom, this article is from Rockpapershotgun. Read more

@Estel: I used to have a star, lost it a while back and I have a feeling I'll never get it back again (I may of taken an issue with some of kotakus posting habits Which may or may not have lead to that editorialboard tag up top :P) Read more

@Lionel Hutz: Ahhh. Yeah I can see that being an issue. Read more

@Manly McBeeferton: Nah they kinda suck. Running unsourced rumours on Portal 2 n such. Read more
