June 17, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I don’t think the second of these videos are supposed to be spooky… but it is. How come? It’s the gradual creep, the slowness, and the silence. However, let’s distract ourselves with the first ad. This is shiny. This promises the latest in Android tablet tech. Tech that can talk to your PlayStation. The S2 […]

PlayStation TV lets two people see different screens

June 8, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Do you think multiplayer works if you have to cope with split screen? I don’t. Even if you have a large TV you still have to game with the fact that the other player can see what you’re doing. If you’re not going head to head there’s still the chance that you’ll briefly peak at […]

Sony Song: Still Alive versus PSN

April 28, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

You must know Still Alive from the end of Portal. Imagine if you’ve bought Portal 2, really want to play it on Sony’s PSN… ouch, some of you are in that situation. You can’t. Not while PSN is down. That’s the first reason why this song is clever. I think the other reason is clever […]

Sony’s S1 and S2 Android tablets are mondo sexhay!

April 26, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Okay folks! You’ll have seen the news that Sony has finally announced they’ll be doing Android tablets. Both devices are PlayStation certified, use mobile and wifi, run Android 3.0 and can even be used as a remote. The S2, in particular, has my eye. It looks more travel friendly. It can also be used as […]

Extended PlayStation phone advert

February 7, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

There have been rumours of a PlayStation phone for a while now. Not just rumours but very real demand. Heck. I seriously wonder whether my next phone will be the joyous union of a) internet access and b) gaming. All the speculation was that it would be an Android phone. All the smart money was […]

Nintendo Gamecube three times more popular than Xbox 360 in Japan

January 26, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

You might have heard that the Xbox isn’t very popular in Japan. It’s true. There’s lots of reasons why this is the case – it’s the console from America, the games don’t always suit the Japanese market and the PlayStation 2 is so incredibly strong there. The Nintendo DS is even stronger. A recent survey […]

Xperia arc bundled with Exmor R and Bravia

January 7, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

One of the phones announced yesterday was the latest Sony Ericsson Xperia. The Xperia arc follows on from the X10 and is another Android phone. Sony Ericsson has not always been that good at releasing phones with the latest Android version. Combine that with quite a slow update frequency (the X10 still isn’t on 2.2) […]
