I hate the setup of the Madden demo. Stupid, stupid, stupid. You get to play in the ‘virtual’ mode and one offensive drive. Why cant they just make it normal like the NCAA demo was. You can hardly get a feel for the gameplay on offense, and cant at all on defense since you dont even get to play it. IMO this will definitely NOT help them get more sales and people back on board.
August 1st, 2008 at 1:14 AM
Jack Tretton lied, Sony lied… No Life With Playstation today…
August 1st, 2008 at 1:16 AM
Dude, there’s still 6 hours left in the day. Don’t trip just yet.
August 1st, 2008 at 1:25 AM
3 hours.. There already updated the ps store, i hope they release it though.
August 1st, 2008 at 1:32 AM
SCEA goes by Pacific Standard Time, so….5.5 hours.
August 1st, 2008 at 2:15 AM
dont knwo i highly doubt it comes out, and if it does cool. im not going to excite myself for something that may not come out. and why does everyone go by PST. thats annoying for ESt people
August 1st, 2008 at 2:15 AM
Ya know Viktor,
Maybe he misspoke, and meant within a month from now…?
Jack Tretton misspoke a few times at the press conference, I was there.
Even for a billionaire exec, it must have been intimidating to get up on that stage, in a packed Shrine Auditorium, and not make even one mistake.
My guess? If it does’t come by the end of the week. It will be here by August 15th. Which is one month from the Press Conference…
Trust me, they want to give you this feature. They dont want pissed of customers, but they also dont want a few million bricked PS3’s because they released it before it was ready.
August 1st, 2008 at 2:22 AM
unlike another console i know.lol anyway they know whats up and sometimes they are under a NDA to say nothing about the product. until its lifted we wont here anything. They know what they are doing better to piss off a few than piss off millions because there PS3’s got destroyed.
August 1st, 2008 at 2:55 AM
where is my, Life with Playstation………Sony lie to me again…
August 1st, 2008 at 3:09 AM
@codeman420
Try living in a time zone that isnt EST or PST.
August 1st, 2008 at 3:14 AM
Viktor & Pariim
O..K
Since when did we get smeagul and gollum in here?
August 1st, 2008 at 3:45 AM
Sev
Yeah, I might be wrong here, but didn’t he also say ‘ 5 billion worldwide ‘, rather than million? It’s probably just a slip-up. Perhaps he screwed up the date and made a few sony techies cry as they realized that they wont be going home until life is done
August 1st, 2008 at 3:48 AM
Yeah he did say 5 billion lol
August 1st, 2008 at 4:07 AM
@claass
LOL
August 1st, 2008 at 4:07 AM
o hey sev the blog got updated with news on LWP its coming in August now.
August 1st, 2008 at 4:33 AM
I think they already finished life with playstation. But i think they already realeased eden this week. So they will wait until the week that is no update to upload Life with Playstation for us…….. I wish i can get my hand on it this week
August 1st, 2008 at 2:18 PM
Everyone relax, Life with PlayStation isn’t even that good.
Also, let’s talk about how accurate our rumored CONTENT post was. Holy crap!
August 1st, 2008 at 5:08 PM
KnaveX, Smeagle? Golum? Don’t be iggnorant.
If Sony says that they were going to release LWP on the 31st then they should of. None of that delay crap, they shouldn;t lie to us and get everyone excited only to be let down because of a delay.
Not saying LWP is a big deal to me or anything but it gets me angered that they would lie to there customers.
August 1st, 2008 at 6:26 PM
Yeah man, they lie too much recently, i dont like it either. And taking about playstation in generalб i can say that life with Playstation isnt that bad,lol:)especially after work and hard days:) helps you to go out in couple hours:)
