Sony's Kaz Hirai confirms 'premium level' subscription coming to PSN {Engadget}
Nov 23rd 2009 4:22PM No, it doesn't fly in the face of their marketting - it has always been "free to play," which it is and will be when they add the subscriptions. You can still do a lot of stuff for free, compared to XBL.
Firmware 3.10 lets PS3 users report errors directly to Sony {Joystiq}
Nov 20th 2009 11:51PM Are you serious? That could cause hard disk corruption and various other errors. That's why it takes a few seconds for it to shut down properly.

Ubisoft not planning to release Assassin's Creed 2 demo {Joystiq}
Nov 1st 2009 11:54PM I was at the Armageddon Expo and had to try and get the PS3 the game was running on to be reset. The guy manning the stall just said "I always get asked to reset that one."
Still, it's framerate when being at the top of the tower is better than AC1 on the PS3...
Doublesix chalks higher Burn Zombie Burn sales up to Firmware 3.00 {Joystiq}
Sep 14th 2009 8:27PM It's sucks though that the What's New section hides the sparkles :( I still want sparkles when I look at What's New!

Scene It? comes to Wii, PS3 this holiday {Joystiq}
Sep 2nd 2009 7:38PM I played my friends copies of Scene It? and wasn't impressed. Buzz had all the glitz of a gameshow, the music, the eccentric host... Scene It was a boring version of Buzz with none of that (but with very lame hosts, and then they had 2 in BOS which made it even worse!)
I'll have my Buzz! Quiz World later this year, thanks.
Firmware 2.80 coming soon, does very little [update] {Joystiq Playstation}
Jun 23rd 2009 9:27PM If Sony are going to continually release these minor updates, then they need to start working towards a patch-based update system, rather than a complete firmware reinstall everytime they want to improve the "playback quality" of games.
Strange, though, how this is bumped up to 2.80, usually a "playback quality" enhancement is a .x1 or something.
Watch the PlayStation Motion Controller in action {Joystiq}
Jun 3rd 2009 9:36PM They were referring to their experiences developing with the Eye Toy, which was the original motion controller way back on the PS2 which didn't require a controller in your hands (your body was the controller... wow!). I think they have much more experience with that sort of tech than Microsoft does (Eye Toy was first demoed in 2002). They were probably justifying why they went with the approach they did, as opposed to the original use of the Eye Toy/PlayStation Eye.

So, it's an Eye Toy/PlayStation Eye? That's working out well for Sony after both attempts...
