March 13, 2010
The PlayStation Move certainly looks like an interesting device, though we’re fairly certain that many of you out there are wondering how demanding it will be on the console hardware, after all, we wouldn’t want to be stuck with laggy games, right? Well, it seems that there is good news, as in a recent interview, Sony Worldwide Studios VP, Scott Rohde, mentioned that the overhead of the PlayStation Move is insignificant, and the folks by at Joystiq are indicating that the figure is about 1-2MB of RAM, which is certainly good news, particularly since the PS3 only has about 256MB of RAM, albeit fast XDR memory. Do you have any unanswered questions regarding the PlayStation Move?

PSP Tablet Rumor Surfaces?
March 4, 2010
Could Sony be gearing up a PlayStation tablet of sorts to take on the challenge of Apple’s soon-to-be-released iPad? There isn’t any official evidence of the existence (or even plans) of such a device, the folks by at the Wall Street Journal hint that the Japanese electronics giant is busy coming up with a portable device that might blur the lines within netbooks, eBook readers, and the PSP. Based on that description, it certainly sounds like some sort of tablet or gaming device. Aside from that, there are additionally whispers of a smartphone that can download and play PlayStation games - PSP phone perhaps?

Sony Files For Playstation Arc Trademark In Japan
March 3, 2010
We’ve previously heard THQ President shout Sony’s upcoming PlayStation motion sensing controller the “PlayStation Arc”, and now that Sony has filed for a trademark for the “PlayStation Arc” in Japan, it looks like the name is gaining some serious credibility, and you have to confess that it does sound rather cool. Will the PlayStation Arc take Nintendo’s Wii down a notch, and possibly dominate the motion sensing gaming scene? We’ll have to see the response when Sony officially releases it, and we’re certainly looking forward to it.

PlayStation Network service up and running
March 2, 2010
Sony's PSN network is now up and running after yesterday’s debacle, with the symptoms of older PS3 units having their internal clock go haywire fixed and restored. Here's what the official statement from the PlayStation Blog has to say.
We are aware that the internal clock functionality in the PS3 units other than the slim model, recognized the year 2010 as a leap year. Having the internal clock period change from February 29 to March 1 (both GMT), we have verified that the symptoms are now resolved and that users are able to use their PS3 normally. whether the instance displayed on the XMB is still incorrect, users are able to adjust date settings manually or via the Net. whether we have new data, we will update you through the PlayStation.Blog or PlayStation.com. We apologize for any inconvenience that may have caused.
Guess the world can move on now, and that goes to show that it pays to get the latest hardware always.

Sony PSN down
March 1, 2010
Sony's PlayStation Network (PSN) seems to be down and out for the moment, and Sony is aware of the problem just in case you were wondering whether the folks there were sitting on their rear ends doing nothing about the situation. Game-crashing errors seem to spread among the PS3-owning community, and most of it is attributed to a 8001050F error cipher. Among the unlucky drawbacks would be corrupted trophy knowledge and an inability to access the PSN. Hopefully Sony will be able to do something about that, and pronto!

FCC shows off two more PlayStation 3 Slim models
February 22, 2010
The FCC has a couple more PS3 models up their sleeves, and we're talking about the CECH-2101A and CECH-2101B. It seems that there is only one difference amidst the two devices, and we're talking about the hard drive type. Perhaps Sony has stumbled upon a new manufacturer for a handful of its wireless components, hence having to send the PS3 through the FCC's clutches yet again. Well, we won't really know perhaps until later as more details are revealed, but could that mean larger hard drives for everyone?
