On the bright side, my trip to New York City early in the week was a fruitful one. I got hands-on time with games like Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light (radically different than the old-school Tomb Raider you know), Tron: Evolution (Lightcycles in stereoscopic 3D!), Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition with PlayStation Move support (super-precise aiming with a much simpler UI), and a ton of other great games. Look for more details next week as I transform my scrambled thoughts into sweet, sweet words.
PlayStation in NYC: A Call for Questions — I’m still reeling over the number of question submissions here (you guys rock), and I’m tracking down as many answers as possible. Stay tuned!
Coming Soon to PSN: Piyotama for PSP — This super-cute PSP game has you matching colored eggs to hatch the precious peeps inside. Also, “peep” the new video! (groan)
Zipline Podcast – Episode 13 — Scott Rudi, lead designer on MAG “Live”, has returned to the show to regale us with tales of MAG’s past, present and future, and he even unveils new SOCOM 4 info!

REMINDER: The Lab – Grenades Only — When we say Grenades Only, we mean grenades ONLY. Every player spawns with 99 grenades to blow up everything in sight.
Multiplayer during the World Cup — See some interesting data based on the World Cup matches and UNCHARTED 2 multiplayer habits. Fascinating!
Its all about inFAMOUS 2 for me. Can’t wait for that game. Going to be second best game release next year behind The Last Guardian :)

Sid Shuman wouldn’t know a “True PSone Classics” if it was in his hands and lable “True PSone Classic”
I know this wasn’t posted on the blog, but this was dam amazing to say the least. I really hope a developers look at this game can make a cool game base on some of the stuff showing here in this video *http://n4g.com/news/568428/never-before-seen-ps-move-tech-demo-is-amazing
Only the “Gold Edition” (any of them) will work, not the original version — this is for a technical reason of some kind, as I understand it. The existing Gold Editions will be getting a patch, but not the original RE5 versions.
Hey Sid! It is sad that you didn’t go to Comic-Con, but at least you got to do something in favor of games. I was very surprised to see Kevin Butler post on the PlayStation Blog (I didn’t see that coming!)
How far did you get done in Red Dead Redemption recently? :)
Ugh, haven’t had much gaming time lately (this week was pretty fast paced), and what little time I have had has been going to catching up on True Blood and Fringe :-) But Red Dead (and Singularity!) are tops on my list moving forward.
Sid: I’d like to bring an issue to your (Sony’s) attention. The video for Day 1 coverage of SDCC (HD) on the video side of the PSN Store doesn’t play. Every attempt to play it nets the message “This content cannot be played (80028801).”
lol!! Don’t bother asking questions on here. We’ve asked and complained and bugged them so much they just ignore us now! XD You’d get better communication with a wall in your room at this point!
don’t bother asking for updates on PSN+ content in advance. SCEA has clearly decided to not announce any of it in advance. Every other region providing 2 months in advance from the start hasn’t caused them to change their decision yet so I don’t think it ever will.
Gotta love it when companies dig their heels in and stick to horrible decisions.
The character i really wish capcom would add to their roster in at least 1 game is Phoenix Wright. i would LOVE to be able to attack with OBJECTION! or HOLD IT! or TAKE THAT!
I guess I touched a nerve, but my comment regarding lack of replies on the ps store update blog was taken out. (I bet they didn’t like the fact that I mentioned Grace or compared it to the GODLY eu blog). Fair enough, sorry to bother you sid. i won’t post here again since i’m not getting any closer as to why the us blog ps store update questions get ignored.
What happened to the TRUE PSone classic promised last Tuesday, if u can answer that is?
when are the ps3 games going to have the update for the move i will have may move controlers by aug 15 just wondering
What games are you talking about?
