Everyone Wants Their Hands on Your PSP

Did it work? Well that depends on [...]
Sony’s New Artwork?
Saw this over at Wired and Engadget. Looks like some people are getting a little pissed off at Sony’s new ad campaign. They are using something I am very familiar with (being in the ad world) for their “Street Advertising”. It’s called Chalking or Painting. Basically they hired someone to spray paint (or in this [...]
PSP Firmware 2.50
Sony recently released firmare 2.50, and it included very few new features (that can be used at this time). This could be because they just wanted to get an update out so then people wouldn’t downgrade. Major feautres include increased security, location free TV support (cannot be used yet though, looks like we will have [...]
Sony, What Has Gotten Into You?
Sony is becoming an 800-pound-Gorilla-gone-sour. That, or they are making efforts towards worldwide humanitarianism.

They woultn’t want UK gamers exposed to [...]
PSP, AKA PS3 Controller
No surprises here, but it appears the PSP will work as a handy remote for the PS3. Not sure why you’d want just the one analog stick of the PSP, when you could have two analog sticks on the PS3 banana controller. It’s the Katamari way!
What IS sorta, in a kinda way, surprising about all [...]

Sony PSP Handheld Console Release Date Confused Google
The Sony PSP Release Date was March 24, 2005.
I know, that’s not new news. But it is a fact.
Never trust a cluster of logic based processors to do the work of a semantic PR firm. I was reading the official Google blog today and ran across a post on April 7th titled Just the Facts, [...]
