I’ve long pushed the common sense theory that Google and Sony need to be allies; Microsoft already has the Xbox 360 to tie in with their web strategy, Apple is attacking Sony’s PSP position with the iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch and that leaves Google to get in to hardware-connected-to-your-TV market in conjunction with Sony.

Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia’s sexual innuendo
You might have heard that Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia has pretty funny dialogue. It’s a script that often features sexual innuendo. Ar Tonelico is an old RPG for the PlayStation 2. I think Melody of Elemia was out in 2007. Geek Native has an example of said innuendo. In this scene our her Lyner […]
Gaikai launches
Dave Perry‘s Gaikai could be very big. It’s one of the few companies that are looking to bring gaming to the cloud. Why pay for an expensive console, a suped up computer or even why pass for expensive spinny discs when you could use a mundane machine to tap into Gaikai’s fat servers and play […]
Best PS3 modding, ever?
Is this the best example of a modded PS3 you can find? If you’ve not seen the video before you may need to look quite closely to see the fine crafting along the edges of the device. However, if you keep on watching towards the end you shouldn’t be in any doubt as to how […]
LARPer interviews Sylvester McCoy, talks Doctor Who
This is cute video. For a start we’ve a program that doens’t take the piss out of LARPing. Kudos to Playstation Game Runners on VBS.TV. Kudos also to Niahm who, I think, does really well as the ad hoc presenter. I don’t know for sure if this is Niahm’s group but Heroes and Heroines meets […]
Mii slaying PlayStation Move ad
I don’t think it’s too hard to guess that PlayStation have the Wii in their targets for the PlayStation Move launch. It makes sense. They don’t want to compare the accessory to Kinect. They want it compared to the Wii. Even if the tactics make sense is it still not possible they’ll take the head-to-head […]
Um. Yeah. The Assault Rife controller
I’m really not a shooty-shooty type of gamer but I do like controllers that add to the game play. Mario Kart, for example, was so much better with a steering wheel. It’s not surprising that there are controllers out there to try and get your attention for smash hits like Call of Duty. I’ll just […]
PS3′ inFAMOUS 2 oozes graphic novel goodness
PlayStation and Sucker Punch have posted a video that shows off the impressive 2D cut scenes in the forth-comng inFAMOUS 2. It really does give me the “well written comic book” vibe. I’ve not even played inFAMOUS – but did watch a few minutes of it being played; enough for me to recognise a quality […]
Gamers Gaikai score with Intel investment
This looks interesting. The over-the-internet games provider Gaikai has just landed some investment – some moola – with Intel Capital and Limelight Networks. The way Gaikai works is to let users play games like World of Warcraft without a download, install and just over the internet. A competitor would be a company like OnLive. What […]
Portal 2: For Science – You Monster
Seems like the computer might be willing to forgive you – in the name of science. Mind you, maybe she forgives you in the same way she intends to share her cake with you! This trailer for Portal 2 aired at the Sony Conference during the 2010 E3. We’re expecting the sequel to be available […]
