Today, the Sony Playstation turns 15 years old. As it transitions from childhood to adulthood, your Playstation might notice some changes. Its voice might crack or become inexplicably deep. You can expect hair to grow in odd places. Your Playstation might also become increasingly interested in the opposite sex (or the same sex, we don’t judge.) After 15 years of ...

Your favorite ravenous worm-thing of the moment, Playstation’s version of The Hungry, Hungry Caterpillar, Noby Noby Boy, wasn’t quite our bag when we checked it out a few months. It’s a nice little game if you happen to be drunk and lazing around on the couch, but probably not worth the $5 it costs. If you’re a bigger fan of ...

Any PlayStation junky is all too familiar with the four standard buttons on the PS controllers. These Paperclip Bookmarks take the four iconic symbols and place them on the inside of your book’s pages. There’s no better way to catch a gamer’s eye than to place symbols that remind him of gaming in random places around the house. The only ...

If you’re one of the lucky people who own a first-gen PS3 model (back when WiFi wasn’t standard and shit), your system has what’s called an Emotion Engine chip. Think of it as an extra heart for your PS3 that allows you to have a full Playstation 2 inside. Sony removed it a few years back to cut costs and ...

Lately, I’ve been playing my PS3 quite a bit. But aside from UFC 2009: Unleashed, I haven’t been playing titles built for the system. No, I’ve been dropping $5 or $10 here and there and replaying classic PSOne titles. For $9.99, you can download games like Resident Evil: Director’s Cut and Final Fantasy VII and play them in all their ...

The upcoming Playstation 3 title Heavy Rain is going to be a graphical powerhouse. It’ll not only put the PS3 back on the map, but it’s supposed to be a pretty decent game too, according to sites like IGN, Joystiq and the like. These new screenshots seem to back that notion up. With beautiful coloring and a dark, stormy atmosphere ...

So you thought Microsoft was gonna steal the show at E3 with its ‘Project Natal‘ demo? Wrong! Sony swept into E3 yesterday and showed off its version of full-body motion control, appropriately titled “The PlayStation Motion Controller.” The new controller is a stick and according to Gizmodo, it’s the best motion control yet. Fast and accurate, it uses the PS ...

“Barry! Where’s Barry?!?!” If you recognize that quote, you, the master of all things lockpicking, is a big Resident Evil fan. As with most video game series, the original is always the best. So if you lost your old PSX copy of Resident Evil: Director’s Cut, have no fear. Capcom will be releasing the Director’s Cut version of the game ...

With April Fool’s Day right around the corner, I’m not inclined to believe a lot of the news spewing out of the blogosphere this week. However, my buddy Nicholas Deleon over at CrunchGear is reporting that some dude at Kmart says that Sony is lowering the price of the Playstation 2 to $99. That’s a killer price point for a ...

This is just perfect. And not only because the Wii sucks! Okay, well mostly because the Wii sucks. But we have to hand it to Nintendo. Their little Wii Fit gimmick is a decent idea… in theory. The problem is that their console is a gimmicky pile of junk, which isn’t much help to those of us who need a ...
