I love my PS3 and all but I have to admit, typing messages to other players takes too long for it to be truly efficient. Enter Sony‘s official keypad for the Playstation 3. It’s trying to sell it next month for $50. That’s nearly the cost of a DualShock 3 controller sans controller. Ouch. Still, I’m considering buying one so ...

Resistance 2 is quite the game. I picked up my copy yesterday and while I very much enjoy it, it currently possess a critical flaw that detracts from enjoying the game with a friend. If you log in to the game with two controllers and you try to play split-screen co-op or deathmatch online, it automatically disconnects you (and rather ...

This weekend I happened to acquire a nice PS3 as well as a copy of Little Big Planet. If you haven’t heard, the game isn’t supposed to go on sale until Tuesday due to some issues with the game’s music. I’ve been playing it with my roommate for a day or two and I gotta say it’s impressive. It reminds ...

Note: This in-depth review of SOCOM: Confrontation was done by my brother, Dave. Can you believe this shit? Where does Sony get off selling an online game that doesn’t work online, let alone a game that sucks ass when the online does momentarily work. You know what the game box is good for? A plate for my pizza. That’s it. ...

This just in, we’re getting reports that with the release of Madden ’09, Jesus Christ is no longer needed. Teens across the country who once believed that Jesus was the next messiah have been lining up outside Gamestops across the country at midnight and proclaiming that the game is “off the fucking chain, yo.” “I ain’t got no time for ...

In an effort to stem losses from console sales (because the PS3 is a steal), Sony announced Friday that it is in desperate need of cash. Well, that wasn’t verbatim but it was something along the lines of an offer for advertising space in their upcoming games. “Various game titles are played by fans who like certain things, which can ...

Popular Mechanics has a must-read guide up for PS3 owners alike. If you’ve been interested in putting Linux on your Playstation 3 and need a little help getting things done, then this guide was made for you. You’ll end up replacing the hard drive and gaining the ability to dual-boot between Linux and the PS3 OS, allowing for open-source computing ...

What happens in Rainbow Six, stays in Rainbow Six, or at least Tom Clancy would have us believe. With decked halls of LEDs illuminating the Rainbow Six Vegas strip, the PS3 is cleverly disguised as a high rise casino. We’ve seen some pretty elaborate console mods in our day, including one soaked in fake (we assume) blood, but this is ...

It was only a matter of time before Sony announced that the cheaper, stripped down European version of the PS3 would make its way to the States–and it appears that today was the day. Specifically, the official announcement revealed that a 40GB PS3 with half the USB ports, no multi-format card reader, and no backwards compatibility will be available in ...
