Sony PlayStation Vita clears the FCC hurdle, gets tantailizingly close to US release

2011-08-03T11:29:00.000-07:00

That label up there may not look like much, but the WiFi test report shown after the break makes one thing exceptionally clear:

Sony's PlayStation Vita just cleared FCC testing. For those unfamiliar with the process, this is widely regarded as the final step before a consumer electronics device is shipped to retailers here in the States, and given that "fall" date we've been hearing about, it sure looks as if Sony's on pace to keep its promise. So, you did save room on this year's wish list for yet another console... right?

Sony Giving out FREE PSVita DevKits to indie developers

2011-08-02T03:17:00.000-07:00

had hard time within 2 months and I've not informed you about Sony's decision that they going to support indie developers and giving PSVita DevKits for 3000$ and it's pretty cheap considering fact that full DevKit's price is 10K USD...

Few days later, Sony decided to award group of indie devs with FREE PSVita DevKit and

this are Great Little War Game developer. They really lucky ones :D

From their wirds:

"I can confirm that the machine is everything you'd like it to be -- a really sweet bit of kit."

"And best of all, Sony [is] seriously pushing indies forward, so its AppStore should start filling up in the same way the iOS one has. Nintendo can learn a lot from Sony's attitude."

That's impression what Sony left to this devs :))

We don't know yet when PS VITA release date, but from numbers of rumors (and one trusted source) it's going road of shops from October 28th, 2011..

Nintendo 3DS pricedrop in this month incoming!

2011-08-02T02:53:00.000-07:00

You all may know that 3DS sales were not good, even after release remade of 13 years old game in 3D, The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, but I don't know if Link helped Nintendo to make it more buyable.

US Nintendo decided to drop price
from 250$ to 170$ starting August 12 - Wow, that's big news. Current owners will get 20 NES and SNES games for free and games will come multiplayer function. Although I don't know if price drop will work without good games, we'll see what happens within next months... Drop some words in comments :))

MOST fashion Nokia in the world!

WTF!!! Why everyone hates Sony???

2011-06-05T14:46:00.000-07:00

Almost 3 years that I'm reading almost every blogs and posts about Gaming and every post starts with words against Sony, WHY??

I don't understand to this people, they are talking that Sony only makes ports, remakes and franchises and they don't like it, they want new IP's.. But, if word is about Nintendo, "Oh My God, New Super Mario is coming", Hey, "Zelda is back! ", "is that Pokemon? Oh My I can't wait to get it"... What's happening people? Are you under Hypnosis??? Are these old crap, with new dust is better than that's say New Uncharted? Or new God Of War?

3DS is for me another reason for headache, but i don't hate Nintendo because of that... But I must say, some of Nintendo's fanboys says:

From DS to 3DS - it was BIG step... WTF?? It's the same DS with 3D depth, nothing more... with same titles remaded for 3D screen and nothing more.. oh and with addition of some pixels and circle pad, lol :D

From PSP to NGP - it wasn't Big step... Are they normal? :D I'll choose NGP, because it's pretty awesome piece of hardware and I like launch lineup... And if I has not mentioned yet, It does full (except of UMD titles) backward compatibility of PSP titles that are available on PS Store...

This is a screen from Uncharted: Golden Abyss, this is a game under development for Next Generation Portable (NGP) and I'm pretty sure it'll be great title as it's previous parts...

If you can see and you're not one from the Nintendo's fanboys, it looks amazing and really close to PS3-s graphics..

And this is a Hustle Kings for NGP

It also looks as PS3 version with graphics..

If you can't see truth, Just go and not promote it as lair..

E3 2011

2011-06-04T04:04:00.000-07:00

Just few days remaining until 2011's E3 (Electorinic Entertainment Exposition, EEE) expo. It's planned June 7-9 and the convention's location will be at the Los Angeles Convention Center.. I'm personally waiting news about NGP, new games for PlayStation (tm) platform and PS Suite....

Pre-E3 news was about NGP's some possibilities and some games demos/screens.. I saw screenshots of games on NGP and I'm pretty excited wit it's graphics, Uncharted: Golden Abyss screens looks like PS3 version of uncharted, also WipeOut 2048 and others too... NGP is also backward compatible with PSP titles that are available in PS Store, some NGP games, like WipeOut, Hustle Kings, Dungeon Defenders will also feature Corss platform play between PS3 and NGP - that's pretty cool :D Imagine Playing Pool with your friends with PS3 and NGP together...

So, if you have chance to go to E3, don't miss it, I'm pretty sure expo will be really HUGE in this year and maybe you'll see some Nintendo's "Project CAFE" news on it... I'm so sad that I can't go on expo, bul with all my spirit, I'll be there :D ..

Nokia X7 and E6 Symbian Anna phones start shipping into obsolescence

2011-05-31T01:03:00.000-07:00

While we eagerly await Nokia's first Mango device, millions of others (we're told) have been patiently anticipating shipments of the first Symbian Anna smartphones. Well, today's the day, good sir. Nokia just loosed its 4-inch X7 media slab and E6 portrait QWERTY with 326ppi display into the shipping lanes. Look for the E6 worldwide while the X7 will skip the US carriers (as expected) targeting the friendlier Symbian climates of Europe, Eurasia, China, India and other countries around AsiaPac. Huzzah? via [engadget]

GLOBAL – The first Nokia phones featuring Symbian Anna, the Nokia E6 and Nokia X7, are now shipping. The X7 will be available in Europe, Eurasia, China, India and other Asia/Pacific countries, while the E6 will be available in Europe, Eurasia, Asia/Pacific, as well as the Middle East and Africa. As a hardcore fan of the Nokia E71 and E72 form factor, I’ve been dreaming of the day when I could touch both QWERTY and screen – and here it is with the E6.

Get a full run down of the Nokia E6, Nokia X7 and Symbian Anna features from our previous posts, or check out some highlights below…

Symbian Anna

- Faster and better web experience with an all new browser.

- The long-awaited portrait QWERTY plus split screen text input.

- All new Ovi Maps with public transport routes and other enhancements.

Nokia E6

- QWERTY and touch experience offers faster navigation and operation than either a pure touch or keyboard-only system.

- Direct access to Microsoft business solutions (Mail for Exchange, Microsoft Communicator Mobile and Microsoft SharePoint).

- An 8-megapixel full focus camera with dual-LED flash 720p video recording and 8GB of internal memory.

Nokia X7

- Huge 4” inch screen with preloaded games for entertainment enthusiasts.

- 8-megapixel full focus camera with 720p video recording, dual-LED flash and 8GB memory card preinstalled.

- Beautiful, unique design. Toughened glass and seamless stainless steel.

And fear not Nokia N8, E7, C7 and C6 fans – Symbian Ann will be available for you in the coming months.

So which are you more excited about? The Nokia E6 or X7?

Sony: PS store will be back at the end of this week..

2011-05-31T00:37:00.000-07:00

After waiting one month, Sony announced that PlayStation Network services, including store and others will return at the end of week...

Sony said that PSN will be fully back at the end of the week, except Japan, Hong-kong and South Korea..

“We have been conducting additional testing and further security verification of our commerce functions in order to bring the PlayStation Network completely back online so that our fans can again enjoy the first class entertainment experience they have come to love,” said SCE president and executive VP of Sony corp, Kaz Hirai in a statement. “We appreciate the patience and support shown during this time.

Rumor: NGP to have 256MB RAM and named as PSVita?

2011-05-29T09:49:00.000-07:00

Some days ago, French website revealed info about 3G-less versoin of NGP, that specs are cut in half... That means 256MB RAM and 128MB VRAM, but there's no official info about NGP-s real specs..
Yesterday, Sony Computer Entertainment and Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios President, Shuhei Yoshida responds to this rumor on Twitter and answered:

But I feel something wrong! Is that real specs without Cut? 256mb RAM and 128mb VRAM?

After this rumor, today some anonymus people said, that NGP-s real name is - PSVita, I don't know what you think, but I don't like it, NGP is much better :P
Vita - It's from Latin and means Life. Hmm, do you remember what Sony calls NGP's UI? LiveArea....

As mentioned, this name was one before codename NGP, Sony decide to return old name to Next-Gen portable? Let's see official announcements on E3 in 7th of june :)

GEORGIA - Happy Independence Day, 20th anniversary

2011-05-26T01:38:00.000-07:00

Questions about NGP..

2011-05-25T18:08:00.000-07:00

I have some questions about Sony's Next Gen Portable, what kind of sim cards it will support for 3G? MicroSim? Ooor Standard GSM ?

Sadly, I really want to go on E3, but! It's impossible for me :( I want to see this baby with my eyes before release and play some demos on it... Sony, you must do it best and beast, with great games.. I hope you'll do...

via my tired mind

Sony NGP to have Trophy, mail, messaging and internet browser support..

2011-05-19T10:13:00.000-07:00

As many of you heard, in january of 27th, on Playstation meeting in Tokyo, Sony announced successor of PSP new portable entertainment device, codenamed NGP (Next Generation Portable - official name to be announced on E3). Since that date, we don't know full specs of this amazing device except some details that device equipped quad-core ARM processing and graphical chipset, GPS, 5 inch brilliant OLED capacitive touch display with 960x544 pixels (twice more that we have seen in PSP - 480x272) and rear TouchPad, second analog stick, 2 cameras and 6 axis sensor with "super oval" design, really great step by Sony. Specs, screens and video inside Internet sources already full about what we can see in this device

After watching PS meeting, i realised that this device is really what i want for portable gaming :) It has everything that i want and this is:

Big and shiny 5 inch display for viewing any content
Internet browser for news
E-mail client for checking my inbox
Games with PS3-like graphics
3G for playing and being online from everywhere
2nd analog stick that everyone missed on PSP

and other things that I really like in this device

GPS
3 axis gyroscope, 3 axis accelerometer and 3 axis motion sensor (electronic compass)
messaging for chatting with friends
Game Trophy support :)
2 cameras
and I can't forget about Rear TouchPad, innovation in gaming :) I really like this thing back on NGP

I will really Enjoy palying games on such powerful piece of hardware :)

So far, info we know about this handheld is:

Hardware and Software

High-resolution, touch-sensitive OLED screen
Built-in WiFi
Wireless 3G connectivity
Tilt-sensitive SIXAXIS controls
Three-axis electronic compass
Built-in GPS
Front and back facing cameras
Buttons: D-Pad (up, down, left, right), dual analog sticks (finally), action buttons (triangle, circle, X, square), shoulder buttons (left, right), start, select, volume controls, PS button, power button
New LiveArea service and new application Near
Built-in mic
Built-in stereo speakers
Capacitative multi-touch pad on back of the device

Battery Life

It is supposedly around the same as the original PSP, which means anywhere from a few hours to ten hours, depending on what features are being used
It would seem to average out at around four to five hours, which makes it on par with the battery life of the upcoming Nintendo 3DS

Specs

CPU: ARM Cortex-A9 core (quad core)
GPU: SGX543MP4+
Dimensions: Approximately 182.0 width x 18.6 height x 85.3mm depth
Wireless: 3G, IEEE 802.11b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR
5-inch OLED touchscreen, with a 960×544 resolution (by comparison, the current PSP has a 4.3-inch screen with a 480×272 resolution)

LiveArea and Near

Near app can detect all other NGP owners in your area
Shows other NGP owners are playing
Can chat with other NGP owners
Display NGP owners’ rankings for games

Trophies

NGP games will feature trophies

Backwards Compatibility

Can play any downloadable PSP game
Can play any PSOne game supported by the PlayStation Suite

PS3 Exportability

Real life Big Boss Hideo Kojima showed off the PS3 Metal Gear Solid 4 running on the NGP, and it reportedly looked almost as good as the PS3 version
Kojima said the NGP demo of MGS4 took the model and data environments from the PS3 and exported them directly to the NGP
Though the NGP isn’t exactly as powerful as the PS3, this sort of portability suggests it’s fairly close, and could seemingly lead to playing proper PS3 games on the NGP
Example: If the PS3 and NGP can share save data, less powerful PS3 games (many of the PSN games) could surely be played with both devices, allowing a user to bring their PS3 game with them after they leave the house

Other info will share Sony to us on E3 (Electronic Entertainment Expo)

Sony reportedly tells developers PlayStation Store will return SOON

2011-05-19T09:04:00.000-07:00

We wouldn't recommend setting aside time to enjoy your "Welcome Back" package just yet, but it looks like we now have our first solid indication of when the PlayStation Store will finally return to PlayStation 3 and PSP users. Return date inside :)
According to a memo reportedly sent by Sony to its publishing partners and obtained by Gamasutra, the store is set to return on Tuesday, May 24th -- assuming there aren't any more unforeseen hiccups, that is. That will also, of course, bring with it a backlog of new games and other content that should have been released by now, although those will apparently be released in stages over the following weeks, rather than all at once.

UDC shows off serpentine OLED lamp concept at SID 2011

2011-05-19T09:00:00.000-07:00

We've seen flexible OLEDs and OLED lighting solutions before, but none of them conjured our sweaty club-hopping fantasies quite like this concept from Universal Display Corporation (UDC). The flexible OLED makers weren't particularly forthcoming on the specs for this color-changing apparatus, but we can tell you that it uncoils and recoils with the help of a motion sensor, and requires very little energy to power -- note that tiny wire supplying 100 percent of the required juice. UDC used this flashy lamp specifically to show off its own brand of low-energy flexible white OLED lighting, which means you won't see it popping up in B.E.D. anytime soon (if ever), but it certainly has us thinking of new ways to light up our nights.

Sharp demos 85-inch monster TV, boasting 7,680 x 4,320-pixel resolution

2011-05-19T08:23:00.000-07:00

Not a month goes by without a TV manufacturer releasing a new monster TV, with sizes comfortably above 60 and 70 inches. Nearly all of them feature the same resolution – 1920×1080 pixels – however, so the smaller sets are technically sharper. The latest model from the aptly named Sharp looks to change this, with a staggeringly crisp 7,680×4,320-pixel resolution.

To cram all these pixels in, the latest prototype from Sharp isn’t small. In fact, at 85 inches it’ll be far too big for the average house. It’s the clarity of this display that really astounds though, with the pin-sharp resolution equating to 103 pixels per inch – comfortably more than 36 pixels per inch found on a 60-inch TV with a 1920×1080-pixel resolution.

Unfortunately – at least in Europe – we’re still getting to grips with regular high-definition TV channels, so there’s no way you’d be able to take full advantage of the Sharp’s staggering screen.

Japan does have an infrastructure in place, however, called Super Hi-Vision, and the BBC has dabbled previously with the technology. It still looks like a long way off though, so you’ll have to make do with regular HD in the meantime.

WHAT??? PSN logins exploited again, Sony takes pages offline

2011-05-18T11:18:00.000-07:00

This isn't as bad as it could have been -- Sony's PSN hasn't exactly been hacked again -- but what can only be described as a glaring oversight looks to have forced the company into hastily switching off PSN logins on its websites. The issue? If you legitimately forget your password and need to reset it, previously all you had to do was type in your e-mail address and date of birth, then choose a delightfully cunning new password. Sounds good? More inside
The problem is that if you were a PSN member before the hack then both your e-mail address and your date of birth (plus a lot of other frightening stuff) is known to the hackers. So, whoever has the millions of rows of data that were exposed could, in theory, re-exploit any account. Sony was made aware of the issue and those pages are now offline again, which should make the Japanese government feel just a little big smug. via [engadget]

PSN password reset page could be violated using info stolen in original hack

It's the nightmare it must have been dreading. Evidence is mounting that one of Sony's fresh PSN security measures has already been circumvented.

The exploit allows people to change users' password via the PSN password reset page using only a PSN account email and date of birth – both of which were obtained by hackers in the original breach.

It was first exposed by Nylevia.com, and while on the face of things it looked unlikely Eurogamer now claims to have verification of the hack's authenticity.

As a result, PSN sign-in is now unavailable on a number of Sony's sites. The site that password reset emails direct users to has also been taken down.

"Unfortunately this also means that those who are still trying to change their password via Playstation.com or Qriocity.com will be unable to do so for the time being," a Sony statement confirmed.

Nintendo fights to piracy, with Bricking your 3DS

2011-05-17T15:20:00.000-07:00

Hmm, I don't know what to say, this is Nintendo's new license terms that you need to accept if you got 3DS.. read it inside

"From reading the Nintendo 3DS Terms of Service, one could be forgiven for thinking that Nintendo is exiting the video game console business and entering the brick-making business.

The 3DS Terms are a perfect storm of 1) Updates will happen automatically without your specific permission any time the device connects to wifi 2) The device will constantly try to connect to wifi 3) Updates will specifically disable devices found to have modified software or unauthorized peripherals.

On top of that, Nintendo claims a license to photos and other user-generated material on the devices -- and those things are also automatically uploaded, along with user location data gleaned from wifi network proximity.

DRM prevents users from disabling any of these antifeatures, which is why DefectiveByDesign.org has taken an interest, encouraging people to send cardboard bricks to Nintendo. In the wake of all the Sony PS3 news, is this really the direction Nintendo wants to take things?"

I don't know 'bout you, but, I'm strongly against piracy..

Do you need Bricked handheld? Or you must forget about piracy, it's up to you..
