PlayStation Around the Web: What We Read

71 0

With E3 on our doorstep, we won’t be doing our usual “This Week on PSB” post tomorrow morning (plus we’ve got a cool update hitting around that time, anyway). That said, here’s what you’ll see on PlayStation.Blog this week:

  • Meet-up Tonight! – For those of you planning on attending the event, make sure to get there early! Based on RSVPs, we’re already looking pretty packed, and you’ll want to try to win what we’re giving out!
  • E3 “The Home Game” – We know that as much as you’d all like to be at E3 this week, that’s just not realistic for most people. For those of you that can’t make it out to LA for the meet-up, we’ve set aside some cool schwag. How do you win it? We’ll tell you on the blog later tonight.
  • Press Conference Live coverage – We’ll be liveblogging the PlayStation press conference on Tuesday morning (11am Pacific), and follow that up with posts from some of the top brass here at SCEA.
  • After that? Lots and lots of posts and videos featuring the latest details on upcoming games and news from the show floor. You’ll definitely want to keep an eye on our Twitter account, as we’ll be posting bite-sized updates and pics throughout the week there as well.

I’m off to the airport now, but it’s going to be a very fun and exciting week… I hope you’ll be joining us!

  • Sony reps must be pissed because of that leak. Journalist and blog sites must be blaming Sony for poor management of their announcement, yet they are the ones that post to get clicks on their sites. Maybe Sony should’ve given them a NDR. Oh well, too late now.

  • The PSP GO! looks great guys.

  • SOOPERGOOMAN187

    I wish I could GO, it would be so much FUN to GO. Don’t forget BOOTH BABE PICTURES JEFF or anyone else thats willing to do it so Jeff doesn’t get into trouble with His Wife. Also will HOME have live coverage at the presentation palladium? Is the SHCWAG CONTEST open to Everyone (USA and Canada and Mexico)?
    If so I hope to win something. Jeff can you get a Pic of you with the Current Donkey Kong World Record Holder but with the both of you doing the rock fist?

    GO GO GO GO GO GO I can’t wait for GO! Engadget had the best link!

  • Is it bad that I have already read all your links throughout the week?

  • Looks like they didn’t read about the leaked psp. Not tryin to rub it in.

  • @4
    He’s not commenting because it was a leak, they’re not going to say anything so just leave Jeff alone.

  • @12
    Don’t judge something before its announced, there were rumors of kiosks to dump UMDs onto your Hard Drive.

  • is e3 gunna be live on the blog

  • or on tv?

  • SOOPERGOOMAN187

    on TV? Yes, G4Tech TV live and commercial free broadcast of Sony Extravaganzas and those other two company’s , of which I have no idea what they are called nor have I ever played any of their so called games, this week so go check it out. I’ll be watching Ours n TV while in Home checking out what people think.

    I agree partially
    when its closed the front looks awesome but whats with the back? you can see the screws(they should be covered up) and there’s those ugly rubber things(yes I know there supposed to protect the back of the psp from getting scratched, but that’s why there are things called cases) and wheres the metal ring on the back around the PSP logo(It would look better with the ring)?

    Now when it’s opened its ugly nothings good looking. Remove the metal rings around the dpad and face buttons it would look 50% better! and move the start/select buttons down to the bottom like the older PSP models and dont add that stupid circle indent crap to it(dont add it to the start/select buttons, but i understand why there are indents around the dpad, nub, and face buttons since they are bigger buttons) and it will look heck of alot better.
    Im sry for complaining but it needs to look better on the inside and the back ;)

    I highly doubt there is any truth to the UMD Kiosks. If there is any truth it comes at the cost of your UMD.

    The problem is DRM, it will always be an issue. It’s part of the reason UMD owners are so against the PSP Go. Well those who aren’t caught up in the tech and never consider the consequences, like Einstein did once upon a time. While the PSP Go is hardly a nuclear weapon, it does represent the beginning of many bad things for gamers.

    So the question is, will anyone come in with their UMD collection consisting of over 5 titles per person to switch? I have 7 myself not including the other 8 I’ve sold to buy new releases. A kind of must in this current economic client.

    I see maybe a mailing program at best, but definitely not kiosks. Unless Gamestop does a trade in program for which they can sell the used discs in exchange for the kiosk being in the store.

  • Have a great time at E3 Jeff

  • ughhhh i just bought a psp a month ago, i shouldve just w8ted for the PSP GO(although not officialy announced yet,.)
    heres hoping for a gamestop psp-GO trade in deal LOL

  • So what will this “update” involve? PSB? PS3? PSP? (with the latter two being firmware updates?)

  • psp go looks great, will be buying day 1. thx!

  • @60
    Just stick with what you have, the PSP1000/2000/3000 will allow you access to everything Sony has to offer for download and on UMD. PSP GO can’t make that promise.

  • Also, IRON MAIDEN is coming to rock band June 11th.

  • I hope this year SCEA tells us the truth about the upcoming games that will be shown at this years E3-09! As well as say that there going to fix the PSN It is so annyoing when your trying to get those Trophies but you never get them an Example would be Uncharted Drakes Fortune, Little Big Planet,Burnout Paradise etc..Shame on you Gamer Developers or the people who decided to not use some common sese with the Syncing for use on the PS3 when half the time it doesn’t work I have yet to get my Expert Trophy in LBP. etc.. Also I hope they say finally that we will be able to use our own music in our games for the Summer of 2009.And Music Videos in HOME HOME needs some Serious Makeover SCEA quit advertising to kids only! We need Our Own Music in all of the PSN/HOME because SCEA you have bad taste in Music! Play some Lady Gaga etc.. Not Garbage Music!

  • Oh yeah PSP Go looks like it was created by a kid LMAO! change it because your not getting any thumbs up from anyone SCEA! My friends and I are shocked at what brought you to this Decision? You need to add Dual Shock Analog controls to the new PSP The foldout is fine but the Design is Awful! Haven’t you perhaps heard of Touch Screens perhaps like kinda of like the New IPOD touch?..yeah..No UMD?..Probably considering it didn’t do to well..

  • SONY don’t disappiont us like you did last year.Its enough that I don’t even like the new place to hang out HOME? HOME is a joke!
    You still don’t have it completed probably will never get it done because your turning your backs on us when we ask you a certain thing/Question IN GAME MUSIC for HOME Dj clubs etc..I don’t even like your Moderators Cydonia-X And Locust-X there very rude..
