Today Sony announced the PlayStation Plus. The domain registration (yup: PlayStationPlus.com) was spotted by bloggers some time ago, there have been theories, but now we know for certain. What is PlayStation Plus? PlayStation Plus is a premium subscription service. Users pay up and get access to extra bonuses such as full game trials, automatic downloads, […]
HD cinematic trailer for an awesome looking The Force Unleashed 2
I didn’t play Mass Effect but Mass Effect 2 was so good I wish I had. Equally, I’ve not played The Force Unleashed but I’m wondering whether I need to invent a way to have 48 hours of game playing in every 24 hours and give it a go. Why? The Forced Unleashed 2 (Xbox […]
Do you think this is PS4 / PlayStation 4 leak?
I just want to begin with a reminder – I work in marketing; I work with a number of clients and some of these might be in gaming. I’m not going to blog about anything that I have to keep a secret. I can blog about stuff that’s in public domain. If there’s no secret […]

Sadie O’Down, Insignificant Other, versus Kratos, God of War 3
I don’t always think Sony gets it right with their TV advertising. This ad for God of War 3, however, is fantastic. Actually; it might not be Sony behind this one – could be the developers Santa Monica Studio – but my hunch is that it’s Sony. Why is the ad any good? Because it’s […]
The height of civilisation: violent games banned in Venezuela
As I recall Mega-City One has a law against dealing in old comics. That’s fiction, right, surely nothing in real life would be so stupid? Right? Step forward Venezuela. After a few months in the Venezuela courts the new law – Law for the Prohibition of Violent Video Games and Toys – is now in […]
Sony buys Media Molecule – LittleBigPlanet and security
Sony have bought Media Molecule. Media Molecule are the dev house behind PlayStation’s run away online success LittleBigPlanet. You only need to look at how heavily LittleBigPlanet features – still – in PlayStation’s advertising to see how important a game this is for them. Over at the PlayStation EU blog we get the official lowdown […]
Ad: PS3 White Knight Chronicles trailer
Level 5 are the dev house behind Dark Cloud and Rogue Galaxy. What they’re trying to do with White Knight Chronicles is bring a real time RPG to the PlayStation 3. Watch this advert for the game and let me know if you think they’ll be pushing the voice communication aspects of the game. It […]
PlayStation with an ace new God of War 3 trailer
Over at the European PlayStation blog, Thach Quach the Senior European Product Manager, brings us one of the “omg the scale is huge!” trailers for God of War 3. Like Thach, I’m going to borrow from the US and quote; “Just to give a little perspective on what we were going for with this trailer, […]
Alien PlayStation case-mod
A guilty secret – I sometimes read the Sega US blog. Heh. I do try and stay on the EU blogs from the main providers as I feel they’re a much more relevant read.
Today, though, I was glad I popped over to Sega. They’re sharing pictures of this:
