The Flash Speeds into DC Universe Online
Friday, May 22nd, 2009

The Fastest Man Alive, Wally West easily runs at light speed, vibrates through objects, create explosions through friction – and, when at agonizing top capacity, can manipulate time and bridge dimensions.

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

In just over a week, PlayStation LifeStyle will be reporting live from the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3). We’ve been trying to get a handle on the plethora of PlayStation games that will be on display from June 2 through June 4, and it’s quite astounding. If you weren’t excited about the prospect of new announcements [...]

Sticky Situation: Will My Thumbs Be Able to Handle More Complex Madden NFL 10 Controls?
Friday, May 1st, 2009

I’m excited to get my hands on the newest iteration of everyone’s favorite NFL video game - Madden NFL 10.  I have added the release date to my calendar (and getting psyched for the early August PSN demo).  I have dreamed of this year’s release, excited that a sports game that I really enjoy will include trophies.  [...]

SingStar Sings to the Tune of Trophies on April 16th
Friday, April 10th, 2009

According to information we translated from the french site jeuxvideo, SingStar will be receiving the long-awaited trophy patch on April 16th.  April 16th will bring update 3.01 which includes not only the aforementioned trophy support, but also a new look for the SingStore.  It seems the entire online portion of the game will be down [...]

This kind of news is always great to hear.  Two of our friends from LittleBigPlanetoid have announced today that they have been appointed as community managers for LittleBigPlanet!  That’s right, they now are full-time employees at Media Molecule and working hard to manage all of us - the LBP community.  

Penny-Arcade Blows Smoke at PS3 Firmware Announcement
Friday, April 3rd, 2009

It seems like getting grilled by the guys at Penny-Arcade is more of an honor than an embarassment these days (many victims of their comic strips order a framed copy to cherish).  This time they take on Eric Lempel’s PS3 firmware 2.70 announcement and give us a peek at what’s to come in the PS3’s future. [...]

Official SCEE Trophy Portal now LIVE!
Thursday, March 12th, 2009

Great news in today for those of you PSN trophy fans out there… SCEE has launched their trophy portal that is certainly an upgrade to the current SCEA portal.  I was left wanting a little more from the SCEA portal (such as bandwidth to support sufficient load times) and I certainly wasn’t going to provide [...]

Red Baron Arcade flies to PlayStation Store today [Update]
Thursday, March 12th, 2009

What?  You’ve never heard of this game?  Actually, chances are you have heard of it; you just forgot.  We expected Red Baron Arcade to be released back in September 2008.  We had listed it in our rumored content posts for months, and then it just slipped away into obscurity.
Now it looks like Red Baron Arcade [...]

Leprechaun Sackboy makes his way to PSN today [Update]
Thursday, March 12th, 2009

While we still have no word on the Killzone 2 LittleBigPlanet content (Sev/Helghast costumes and hopefully a level pack), at least the DLC for LittleBigPlanet resumes again today after taking a break for a few weeks.  Today in the PlayStation Store update, we should see the free Leprechaun outfit for Sackboy to celebrate St. Patrick’s [...]

PSN Greatest Hits Collection: What would be on your disc?
Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

With news of the PixelJunk Pack headed to Asia as a retail disc, it refueled the burning question - will we ever see a similar retail disc of PSN titles?  I’m not talking specifically about the PixelJunk series from Q-Games either.  It’s been discussed before on our forums, but now that our PlayStation Store library [...]

Opinion: Should Chris Brown’s music be removed from video games, too?
Friday, February 27th, 2009

While the tracklist for the latest SingStar installment on PS3 is finalized for the SCEE region and the game is on schedule to launch in April 2009, I can’t help but think something should be done. With many radio stations worldwide still refraining from playing Chris Brown’s songs, the ”Got Milk” campaign and Wrigley’s dropping sponsorship, and other musicians backing out of planned duets - I’m not sure if many of us will want to sing alongside him in the game either. So what should Sony do?

Written by stalkingsilence
For those keeping an eye out for Skate 2 DLC, we saw Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Plaza pack released recently to the PlayStation Store.  Based on the smooth flow of DLC for the well-received title (we rated it 4 out of 5), it’s safe to say everyone knew more DLC was on the way.  The [...]
