Sony @ E3 2011
« on: June 06, 2011, 08:26:21 PM »

PlayStation opened with presentation of many new game titles including uncharted3, Resistance3, god of war, eco and shadow of the colossal remastered in HD. With an announcement of a new resistance3 bundle including the move controller, eye camera, resistance 3 game, and a sharpshooter controller for a low cost of $150.00. Seeing how all of these titles will be playable via 3D, there seems to be a large amount of new game play coming to the PlayStation system in the upcoming months that is sure to keep all the gamers busy.


Sony has pledged to "break the mold" on the price of 3D hardware. Announcing two new pieces of hardware including a PlayStation branded display, a 24" display designed specifically for 3d hd game play. This display has technology to allow two unique images displayed (layered) on the same full screen display at the same time. This means no more squinting to see the split screen, or getting confused of whos who when playing local multiplayer. The second peripheral Sony has to offer is an "affordable" pair of 3D glasses that will work with multiple types of 3D displays. The 3d monitor, a pair of glasses, resistance 3, and a 6' HDMi cable will be sold in a bundle package for $399.99 The glasses alone will be sold alone for $69.99. Cost of the display alone, was not announced.



Sony announced advancements in the move software and stated that a plethora of games using the move controller will be coming in the next year. Games such as NBA on the move 2K12(demonstrated by Kobe Bryant), Midevil moves, start the party, and many more are sure to bring new players into the motion Gaming revolution. Along with more game name dropping such as battlefield 3 and sly cooper Shows that Sony's primary focus this year is game content.

Sony hinted on the newly revitalized network experience called "the PlayStation suite" listing PlayStation certified smart phones and tablets, to reach out to new consumers in an attempt to lure them into the PlayStation network, and the PS3


The PlayStation NGP now officially named the "Vita" was displayed in all its beautiful glory, with a 5" OLED touch screen and dual analogue sticks. Other confirmed features such are dual facing cameras, dual touch pads, etc  should make this the best Portable gaming device created. The NGP uses cloud saves, online playing, and content sharing, to give three ways to connect the Vita to the PS3 itself, combining all you digital entertainment together. New launch titles were on display such as little big planet, street fighter cross tekken, uncharted, among many more. The device is scheduled to release this holiday with a retail price of $249.00 wifi only and $299.99 3g models.

All in all, apart from the VITA, it looks like a very software oriented year for Sony.

if you want a tv and a gaming monitor. then i suggest getting E3D320VX. its vizios 3dtv. passive. meaning those movie theater glasses can be used on this tv as well. its great if you have more that one person using it at a time lol. and better for people like me who have to ware glasses and are annoyed with the dam tv 3d flickering. well it will most likely be  used with HDMI, so prob you can connect a dvi source like a computer or external hdmi device.

The ps3 porting is what makes it desirable. And the dual layered tv is brand new tech.

I'm definitely interested in the vita (especially now that I'm employed again and making good money), but I'm wondering about the 3G model. Any info from Sony on what network(s) it will be on, if it will need it's own data plan. price for said data plan, etc.? I mean really I could just get the wifi model and tether it to my smartphone's 3G, but I'd rather only drain one battery at a time...


As for the PS3 stuff, I suppose I'm going to have to put the PS3 and some 3D stuff on my list for this year, even though it kills me to have to buy into the whole 3D gimmick...

@ jrfhoutx trust me its no gimmic! i have black ops and the vizio "32 iin" 3dtv and wow. the tv is @ 478 @ wall mart online. go to ebay and buy yourself a copy of "cloudy with a change of meatballs 2/3d" u wont regret it. da movies is like 12 bucks. and the vizio tv uses passive lenses so there is cheap as hell to buy them. its fun for the hole family and i plan of building a 3d blue ray collection.

i was thinking the same thing about the vita. hopefully there will be a CDMA version and i will be able to flash it to cricket.

Yeah, I'll pass on 3d for now and wait for the tech advances to settle down and the prices to level off, etc....

Now with the vita, I still haven't seen anything, at least I don't remember seeing anything, about game media and/or storage media that it'll use/accept. Anyone have any info on that?
