But the gaming landscape is different to that when the PlayStation Portable was launched.It’s not a small unit, packing a 5 inch touch sensitive OLED screen between the controls, but neither does it feel too big.Rbkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12128141635228354615noreply@blogger.comBlogger67125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2698850193347501072.post-81924927729172430302013-02-21T21:47:00.001-05:002013-02-21T21:47:24.386-05:00Playstation 4 is Here !!

Former Capcom head of development Keii Inafune is confirmed to be working on the game along with Yasunori Mitsuda and Wataru Hokoyama on music. Development is being handled by Marvelous AQL.<br /><br />Some game details have also surfaced, "sacrifice" refers to the games reliance on magic and how magic can only be used once something is sacrificed such as a tree or stones. You also have the ability to sacrifice body parts such as your eyes and fingers to call out monsters.<br /><br />A source is also stating that Soul Sacrifice will be released this winter and support one to four players.<br /><br />

Sony have revealed a gorgeous new white PS Vita system, more official details and images inside.......<br /><a href="" name="more"></a><br />Following in the footsteps of a colorful PSP lineup, Sony has announced a white PlayStation Vita set to be released in Japan on June 28. The white Vita (PCH-1100 AB02) will sell at the same price as the original black base model, contains identical innards, and comes in Wi-Fi-only or 3G/Wi-Fi configurations.<br /><br />
Gamers in the U.S. craving the "crystal white" Vita must remain patient, as sometimes these alternatively colored Sony products reside in Japan for a little while and eventually roll out elsewhere. Sony may possibly announce further details about the white Vita during the E3 gaming expo in Los Angeles on June 5-7.<br /></div>Active Learnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12288036166645895626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2698850193347501072.post-67974041963294741782012-05-09T10:14:00.000-04:002012-05-09T10:14:31.157-04:00Killzone PS Vita Information Leaked?<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

Siliconera claims that Sony Computer Entertainment is recording a teaser for a future Killzone game, more details inside......<br /><a href="" name="more"></a><br />A source has told Siliconera that Sony is in the process of recording a teaser for an upcoming Killzone game however nobody has confirmed whether the game will be coming to PS Vita or PS3/PS4. The teaser trailer goes as follows:<br /><br />My sons and my daughters, today we take the first step toward our imperial future. <br /><br />
<a name='more'></a>For years, this once-great nation has stagnated in the shadow of its enemies. Governed by scoundrels who flaunted the ideals established by my father, these traitors… these enemies of our race have diluted and exploited the triad of Duty, Obedience, and Loyalty.<br />
<br />
This regime, this corrupt regime, has been dissolved. In its place does rise an era of stability and strength. A time of opportunity born from a promise that we shall return our people to their proper sphere of dominance.<br /><br />"Duty, Obedience, and Loyalty" are the three virtues of the Helghast Triad. Our source says, these lines were written for a woman, who has ties to a Helghan Autarch. We’re speculating here, but the speaker might be Aurarch Visari’s daughter.<br /><br />Keep in mind that this is all speculation and none of this might be true.<br /><br /><br /></div>Active Learnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12288036166645895626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2698850193347501072.post-3672884112755137412012-05-09T10:11:00.000-04:002012-05-09T10:11:50.080-04:00Sony Confirms "20 New Gaming Experiences" At E3 2012<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

Game Director Omar Kendall discussed the possibilities of Playstation All-Starts Battle Royale coming to the PS Vita, interview inside.......<br /><a href="" name="more"></a><br />Omar Kendall talked about the challenges of developing for the Playstation 3 and when quizzed about a PS Vita version he said:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Maybe… Stay tuned.</blockquote>
So remember there is still a possibility of All-Stars for the PS Vita might be announced at E3 2012, we will just have to wait and see. Personally we think that Sony will emulate Capcom and release a "upgraded" version of Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale later for the Playstation Vita after the PS3 version has been released.

Legendary video game developer Shigeru Miyamoto (creator of Mario and Zelda) shares his thoughts on the Playstation Vita, details inside.......<br /><a href="" name="more"></a><br />EDGE magazine asked Miyamoto what he thought of the Playstation Vita and responded with:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
It's obviously a very hi-spec machine and you can do lots of things with it, but I don't really see the combination of software and hardware that really makes a very strong product," said Miyamoto. "But I can't really say" </blockquote>
He concluded with:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"I'm not looking at Vita as happy that it's not selling well, or scared that it would sell well - I'm not looking at Vita that way."</blockquote>
It seems as though Miyamoto's real opinion has been censored in some way as unlike EA, Nintendo have respect for their competitors and do not want to start an immature flame war.<br /><br />However by reading Miyamoto's words it seems as though he might not consider the PS Vita as something "unique" due to it being relatively similar to a PS3 unlike the Nintendo 3DS which is on the other end of the spectrum when compared to the Nintendo Wii.<br /></div>Active Learnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12288036166645895626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2698850193347501072.post-82179672789775444722012-05-02T14:15:00.000-04:002012-05-02T14:15:14.014-04:00PS Vita: How the Console Beats Smartphone Gaming Hands Down<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
A lot of talk has been heard regarding the popularity of mobile gaming. There are now literally hundreds of thousands of apps available across all cell phone platforms that allow the users to while away idle moments. A few months ago the trend was Angry Birds, it briefly became Fruit Ninja, and now everyone seems to be playing the Pictionary simulator Draw Something.<br /><br />But how much of a threat to traditional handheld gaming is mobile gaming? On the face of it, it would seem that mobile gaming was in a position to overtake the handheld console, for example Sony’s ground breaking PS Vita, in terms of popularity. The main reason for the platforms success is its availability. The vast majority of those people who are likely to play video games on the move own smartphones. A cell phone is always with you, by it’s very nature. It is not one extra device to remember to charge because for many people, having a mobile phone with them on the move is as vital as remembering their keys and money.<br /><br />However mobile gaming will never replace the benefits of a dedicated handheld gaming platform in the hearst and minds of gamers. The graphics and processing power offered by the PS Vita, for example, is far superior to that offered by any mobile phone. A cell phone has other functions to worry about, and manufacturers need to cut corners, or are not experts in gaming technology, unlike industry leaders like Sony. The high-definition display on the PS Vita, with its huge size, is designed specifically for the purpose of enjoying great games. The second benefit is the price. A handheld console will set the user back about 300 dollars. A smartphone that could play games to a similar standard around 600 dollars. For gamers it makes sense to buy a cheaper smartphone, that makes really great calls and can browse the internet, and buy a dedicated console like the PS Vita. The list of AAA games available for the PS Vita dwarfs the thousands of tiny apps available for the smartphones. A hardcore gamer may enjoy the harmless distraction of draw something for an hour but people who love great games would surely much rather immerse themselves in a title like Uncharted - Golden Abyss, than spend tens of hours playing Angry Birds.<br /><br />And that is where handheld gaming really wins out over mobile gaming. Take the PS Vita for example, everything about the screen, buttons, touchpad, dual joystick controls are finely tuned to the needs of gamers. Anyone who has ever tried to play Grand Theft Auto on the iPhone will tell you how impossible it is to control the vehicle and see the map, because their thumbs cover most of the screen. On a handheld you don’t have to worry about reserving battery in case you need to make that important call, or you need to use the GPS. Mobile gaming is a fun distraction, but it is nowhere near endangering the handheld console market.<br /></div>Active Learnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12288036166645895626noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2698850193347501072.post-9310579399961119582012-05-02T14:05:00.000-04:002012-05-02T14:05:04.820-04:00Golf Mania now coming to PS-VITA<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

The Vita edition of the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection will apparently be seeing a June release in the West alongside it's release in Japan.

The collection will contain upgraded versions of the PS2 games Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.<br />

One of the features that many PS Vita owners have been crying out for, PS1 Classics support, could soon be on its way, if images from Neogaf are anything to go by.<br />
At the moment, users have found that they have been unable to download their PS1 games to their PS Vita. However one title seems to have bucked that trend, and while the game is still unplayable, a new Live-Area screen with the PS1 grey has popped up for the PS1 Classic "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command".<br />
The ability to play classic PS1 Final Fantasy games on my PS Vita would be a dream come through and would fill the void for me until a dedicated PS Vita FF game comes out.<br />

<b><u>Insert here random rant for Sony.<br />Insert here weird explanation on why people should buy the PSP game Super Collapse 3 on their Vita. Implicitly make it clear that this is the next game being used for VHBL.<br />Don’t forget to thank thecobra for his exploit and the port. <br />Mention that the game is mostly unavailable for the vita in Europe/Asia, but has been so far spotted in the US, UK, Canada, Mexico, Finland, Czech, Sweden, and Poland. Tell people to wait a bit more for the VHBL files.</u></b></blockquote>
<br />
<b><u>Its obvious Sony will remove the game from the Playstation Store VERY soon so stay posted for a "Sony removes Super Collapse 3! from the PSN store article"</u></b><br />

Since the PS Vita launched worldwide lacklustre sales were a huge issue, many claimed that the sales were bad due to a lack of Japanese launch titles, other pinned the blame on the PS Vita's $250 price tag. It turns out Sony have agreed and think that cutting the PS Vita's price to $120 will greatly boost sales.<br />
<br />
Sony President Kazuo Hirai released this press statement<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"Right now the PS Vita is the best thing in the world, it fits perfectly in my giant hands and Microsoft has not tried to copy it, and even Apple haven't copied it yet, and since we have already made millions of early adopters a price cut seems necessary. So from April 16th retailers will be selling the PS Vita for $120 to coincide with releases such as Gravity Rush and Resistance: Burning Skies."</blockquote>
Its also been rumoured that the Kaz Hirai will be taking a 60% pay cut to make up for lacklustre PS Vita sales.<br />
<br />
<br />
Along with the price cut Sony also announced a "Pioneer Program" This is a set of free gifts and downloadable games which will be available to the early adopters who purchased a PS Vita at its previous $220 price.This news was previously mentioned on our blog and now it has been confirmed.<br />
Are you gonna get the device now?<br />
Go game ...<br />

The PlayStation Vita will now give gamers a chance to video chat or voice call friends and family around the world using Skype. <br /><br />North American gamers can download the app now, but anyone in Europe and Asia will have to wait tomorrow to download their region-specific version of the service. <br /><br />Using the app, users can make free calls to Skype numbers or purchase credit to make calls to all other numbers via 3G or Wi-Fi depending on what Vita you purchased. <br /><br />Probably most important for fans, the app can remain in the background while you play a game. You can also use either the front or rear cameras to make video calls. <br /><br />

God of War fans might have one more reason to pick up the PlayStation Vita in the future. According to a report from IGN recently, they claim that Sony might be bringing God of War to a non-Sony platform in addition to the PlayStation Vita. In the article God of War developers, Ready at Dawn, were quoted as saying, “I think with the way the industry’s playing that dysfunctional passive aggressive type of mentality, we as a company and we as an industry constantly have to look at all opportunities. It doesn’t mean we’ll go there, but there’s certainly reason to talk about it.”<br />

With job postings and other rumors floating around, it has been no secret that there has been a God of War game in development. Today, the next game in the series has finally been confirmed as <b>God of War: Ascension</b>. <br />
Chances are it’ll be arriving on the Vita before any other platform but at the rate iOS devices are being adopted – it would be silly to rule it out. It would be an interesting twist to play as Kratos without the Blades of Chaos or Godly powers.What do you think? Would you like God of War on your PS vita?<br />
Stay tuned for more information as it becomes available.</div>Active Learnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12288036166645895626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2698850193347501072.post-31405928657625303672012-04-22T07:49:00.003-04:002012-04-22T07:51:51.595-04:00Motorstrom And Everybody's Tennis Are Back On PSN<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

It is rare for me to mention when Sony does something right, so let me do this today.<br />
<span id="more-4326"></span><br />
Many gamers have happily discovered that the 2 psp games Motorstorm Arctic Edge and Everybody’s Tennis, are finally back on the PSN store, and, hopefully for those who had previously bought these games, in their download lists.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>Motorstorm and Everybody’s Tennis had been respectively used by hackers Teck4 and wth(a.k.a. Yosh) to run unsigned code (homebrews) on the PS Vita, which led to the release of VHBL, a piracy-free homebrew loader for Sony’s new handheld. Sony quickly removed the games from their online store, and patched, in Vita’s firmware 1.65, the exploits used in these games. And we were left wondering how long it would take before the games are made available again on the store.<br />
Lots of people, unaware of the technical ins and outs of these hacks, were also afraid that these games would never come back on the store. Others shared their anger against hackers (and against me for publicly disclosing both vulnerabilities), as they had paid Sony for a game they couldn’t play anymore.<br />
Thankfully, <strong>Sony doesn’t always get everything wrong</strong>, and in this case they did the right thing: pull the games temporarily to prevent the hack from spreading, patch the firmware, then put the games back. Except for their lack of communication on the matter, I believe, in hindsight, that it was the best way they could handle the situation.<br />
It goes without saying that if you are on firmware 1.65 or above, VHBL for Motorstorm or Everybody’s Tennis will <strong>not</strong> work anymore, so do not buy these games if you expect them to lead you to homebrew, the hacks have been patched. That being said, these are both very good games <img alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" src="http://wololo.net/wagic/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" /><br />
We also have ongoing plans to release a new version of VHBL, which will be compatible with firmware 1.67. As for the two previous versions, it uses a vulnerability in a psp game.</div>Active Learnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12288036166645895626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2698850193347501072.post-27139026872207308742012-04-22T07:44:00.000-04:002012-04-22T07:44:45.676-04:00Sony Reveals "NASNE" For PS Vita And Other Devices<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Sony Japan has revealed images for their brand new "Networked Recorder and Media Storage Device" which is compatible with the PS Vita and PS3, details inside.......<br /><a href="" name="more"></a><br /><br />The “nasne” device comes with a 500 GB hard drive in addition to dedicated tuners for “digital terrestrial and satellite broadcast.” It can connect with several Sony devices (Playstation 3, PS Vita, VIAO PC, Sony Tablet and Xperia Play) using dedicated apps so that users can watch and record video.<br />

You can check out how “nasne” will work with each aforementioned device from the details provided by the official press release below: <a name='more'></a></div>
<br /><ul>
<li>PlayStation®Vita PS Vita users will be able to watch and record digital terrestrial and satellite broadcasts through “torne for PS Vita” (tentative name), a dedicated application for accessing “nasne” from anywhere within the same home network via Wi-Fi connection . “torne for PS Vita” will become available within this calendar year. By leveraging the ability of “nasne” to simultaneously create an export file while a television program is being recorded, users can quickly transfer recorded content through Wi-Fi connection and easily enjoy them on the go on their PS Vita’s beautiful 5-inch OLED. Details of “torne for PS Vita” will be announced in due course.</li>

Those who already have a “torne” device connected to their PS3 will be able to connect a maximum of four “nasne” units to their PS3 and record up to five television programs.*4 Details of “torne” version 4.0 for PS3 will be announced separately.</li>
</ul>

Hope you didn’t wait too long since our last VHBL release a bit more than 2 weeks ago… This is a new PSP user mode exploit by thecobra (also discovered a while ago by WosRet), which I confirmed runs on a PS Vita with Firmware 1.67. Unlike Motorstorm and Everybody’s Tennis, this game is available in the US store as well as some other countries (details to come). <br />
Thecobra already ported VHBL to this exploit, and we already have something running, that just needs a few tweaks here and there before being released. So far I didn’t see anything that would prevent HBL from running on Vita 1.67, but that will need to be fully confirmed in the days to come.<br />
The name of the exploited game is obviously kept a secret until the public announcement, and if you don’t want to miss the release, remember that history repeats itself. Sony will most likely remove the game within hours following the announcement, so stay tuned.<br />
