There’s been a couple of games that I’ve been really excited about for a long time now that are currently on the horizon, and will be with us later this year: Assassin’s Creed 2 and Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. With E3, we’ve all been deluged with plenty of information about both games. Here’s a round-up [...]

For all new PS3 owners

Want inspiration for what to do initially as a new PS3 owner? Step right this way… I’ve jotted some points down covering various areas that might be of use, and tips that I’ve found helpful to get up and running quickly, but also to provide the most enjoyment:
The first switch-on- immediately get [...]
E3 Interview – PlayStation.Blog.Europe Tracks Down Uncharted 2: Among Thieves- I’m still amazed by the footage shown at E3, but as ever, I want more, as I’m a huge Uncharted fan. The interview is very insightful, and has a link to a trailer: all of which you see is either actual gameplay, or cutscenes rendered [...]
PlayStation.Blog.Europe now live- These guys are my new best friends in the world of PlayStation news. Billed as “Your daily fix of PlayStation news from across the SCEE region”, I look forward to reading all the great content that’s going to be hitting my screen from now on. Fantastic.
Welcome to the final article in my series on PlayStation Home. Over the past couple of weeks I’ve looked at different aspects of Home, but I’ve dodged answering what exactly Home is, and where it might be heading.
People have been complaining that PlayStation Home simply lacks things to do, content etc. And we’re all told [...]
Following on from the previous article in this series, ‘It’s good to be back Home‘ I’m now going to address the availability of clothes, furniture, and even ‘personal spaces’ for a modest fee, known as a microtransaction. I must admit, I felt a little sick when I saw the rows of virtual t-shirts, jeans and [...]
EU PSN Blog arrives April 17th- About time. PlayStation consumers in SCEE territory will be treated to first class official blog coverage which I believe is essential in this day and age. In my opinion, what Sony has been doing with PlayStation.Blog is far ahead of the other lot. It’ll be interesting to see how [...]
I get all sorts of search terms that end up leading people to my blog, but sometimes the answers they’re looking for aren’t exactly here. So I’ve pulled together some more questions that may be of use, following on from Vol.1. In this edition, I’ve also mixed in some non-PS3 or gaming related queries as [...]
Play safe online- A new website from Sony detailing how to stay safe online when accessing the PlayStation Network (both on the PS3 and within Home, and also on the PSP). Everything is clearly explained, so it looks like it’ll be a great resource for both parents and children. For more resources, see also: CEOP.gov.uk, [...]
Sony Now Charging Publishers For PS3 Downloadable Content, An Unpopular Policy Shift- I find this incredible. Publishers need incentives to publish their content on the PlayStation Network, not reasons to abandon the platform. I’m now thinking that when it came to the PS3, Sony got out of the wrong side of bed or something. Because [...]
For more of a background on the PlayStation Network and what Portable IDs are, please see my previous post on this matter, ‘Sony unleashes ‘My PlayStation Network’ on eu.playstation.com’.
Slowly, but surely Sony’s provision for ‘gamer cards’ are catching up with what Xbox Live gamers have taken for granted for years. To show you the new [...]

This is a guest post by Elle, who you may remember from the old City In The Clouds blog. She now blogs at elle87.wordpress.com
Foreword by Los Havros: As Patapon 2 will shortly be upon us, Elle is looking back to the first Patapon game that we all know and love. Whilst I’ve covered [...]
