Smackdown vs Raw 2007 for PSP has been delayed worldwide. Im guessing maybe for firmware updates? Who knows. Here in the UK and U.S, we were due our copies of Smackdown this Friday (10th November).. however... the game has been delayed until 28th November (U.S) and sometime in December for UK.
Strangely enough, the PS2 and X-Box 360 versions are still due for release this week.
Damn.

Atari founder Nolan Bushnell points out that PS and PS2 got lucky with their release, 'It wasn't anything brilliant that they did. With the PS and PS2 it was timing. They had the right pricing at the right time [and were] almost the accidental winner.' But he seeing things this time around different 'It would not surprise me if a year from now they'll be struggling to sell 1 million units.
I think hes going to be wrong :P

Every game on the PlayStation 3 will use the same universal sign-in and the same online ID, Sony has confirmed - even titles which do not use the central buddy list and messaging systems offered by the console.
Speaking to our sister site this morning, the UK producer on launch title Resistance, Dan Brooke, said that he "wishes to be clear that Resistance uses the PlayStation online ID to sign into the game. There is no separate login for Resistance and the online ID you create will be the same you use for all titles."
The clarification comes after Ted Price, head of Resistance developer Insomniac Games, revealed last week that despite having extensive online functionality, the game will not be using the central buddy list offered by the PS3; instead, players will build an in-game buddy list unique to the game.
Resistance is also set to offer advanced community features such as clan support, party support, match-making and ranking. At present the PlayStation 3 operating system does not offer centralised support for these features.
However, contrary to some reports which have appeared in recent weeks, gamers will not be expected to sign up new accounts for each game they play, as the PS3 will handle a single sign-in ID for this purpose.
This system is similar to how online games worked on the PlayStation 2, where users had a single Central Station ID which identified them in every game on the system - although unlike the PS2, the PS3's network adapter is built in and configures itself automatically in most network environments, and the system boasts persistent internal storage for network and sign-in details, as well as for downloaded content.
However, the PS3's service still falls significantly short of Microsoft's highly regarded Xbox Live system, whose voice chat, messaging, buddy lists and so on are not only a core part of the service, but are utilised by all online titles on the console.

Next-gen shots of the mech action shooter for PS3 and Xbox 360
Check these screens out - if the game looks anything like this when it finally launches in spring next year, we'll be impressed.
Armored Core 4 (yes, Armored without the 'u') is the latest in the series of mech-based shooters developed by FromSoftware - the guys responsible for ChromeHounds on Xbox 360.
From the looks of it, the game will let players battle their spectacularly large fighting robots in an icy arctic-like setting, a futuristic city full of skyscrapers, and even over the open sea.
ChromeHounds looked nice, but its slow-moving robots lacked excitement. Hopefully, these jet-powered mechs in AC4 will provide more of a thrill.

PS3 is going to be a revolutionary system in many ways and as of late, most have been focusing on the SIXAXIS, the Cell, and the incredible graphics. Well you might want to watch out for the Eyetoy and what comes with it because you'll be amazed as to what it can do. Here's a little preview:

A couple of months ago it was somehow rumored that the downloadable PS1 games would be selling for up to $15. Many people were upset and expressed their distress that they would have to pay for games that they already own. There's some new news today about the pricing. The games will sell for a maximum of $5. Now, that's a pretty good price but I'm not upgrading any time soon. Nothing can beat the price of games that I will be playing on PS1P, PSXP, and YAPSxP. Anyway, here's the link: http://www.gamasutra.com/features/20...field_05.shtml

Lyrics of all songs are included in the game's manual as bonus.

Your achievements are saved into a Ranking Chart. Additionally, you can unlock new tracks and items in the Gallery Mode.
Depending on the difficulty level, DJ Max can be played in either 4 button (left, up, triangle, circle) or 6 button mode (left, up, right, square, triangle, circle). You can further manually increase the speed with the L/R buttons.
DJ Max contains a number of game modes and extras as listed up below. Be warned that rookies might have their difficulties in the beginning; DJ Max's difficulty level is adjusted to experienced gamers.

Rookie DJing: Easy difficulty 4 button mode. 10 tracks are selectable from the start.

News/release from access_denied:
OK, so here's my newest release. It only took me about 1 hour to make, but it's still pretty fun. All it is, is a 37 question test, quizzing you on some new age knowledge. It's not really an IQ test, but meh. Tell me if there's any bugs. I spent 15 minutes testing it, and didn't see any, but you guys might spot some. So, here you go. Test your knowledge!
Oh, and there is no graphics in this application. It's all text.

News/release from Martek:
Since 2.71SE-B'' there is no program that can order your mediafiles correctly. Even PSP Brew can not do this at this moment.
Because of that I have created my own one, but in the first release it just can order Homebrews.
This tool is designed to work with every Firmware you have just to choose your PSP-device and order what is shown!
The following versions will have a lot of more features and a list of what will come you can find here:
Find PSP-device automaticly on startup
Install, delete and update Homebrews
Order movies
Order music
Order pictures
Manage Savegames
Edit RSS-Feeds

News from XMB-PSP
I missed this yesterday, my bad :P
Some of you may already know that Ahman, the developer for iR Shell, has continued updating his very poopular shell past the final release of 2.2 as a special edition but, only to beta testers. Over this time iR Shell has built up some very nice new features, and you thought it couldn't get any better! There is not an exact release date for this but he does say it will be soon! So, stick around for the very latest updates on this.
There were far to many updates to add them all here so I've included a few of the really juicy ones to get you going. You can check out a change log for each of the 10 SE releases by following the link at the bottom of the page.
iR Shell SE Features
* Allow the use of the 4th brightness setting (maximum) on the LCD. Normally, you can only set the 4th brightness when connected to a power adapter. This new version allows you to activate the 4th brightness anytime by pressing "Left Trigger + Brightness". The setting will also carry over to Devhook firmware emulation when iR Shell is active. To return to normal brightness, press "Brightness" button.
* iR Shell Restart key (L+R) under devhook will reset your PSP back to iR Shell under fw 1.5, provided you've installed the iR Shell custom firmware mod.
*Allow redirection of PSP keypad to PC Keyboard or PC Joystick via USB. Devhook 2.71 fw emulation is also supported which means you can use a PC Joystick for Socom or Syphoon Filter.
* Updated the launch XMB function, so you can leave the game disc in the UMD drive when launching XMB. It will now detect your disc type. If you've a UMD Video disc, it will launch the movie automatically. If it's a UMD Game disc, it will skip the auto-launch and just goes to XMB.
* This version allows you to choose a bitmap image or pmf movie as splash screen. The included sample is a xbox360. You can try to make your own splash movie. However, it seems pretty complicated.
* Use iR Configurator to choose startup splash type.

Rockstar Games today announced that GTA: Trilogy will be making its way to the PlayStation 2 this holiday season, on December 4. The set includes GTA: 3, Vice City, and San Andreas. Already released on the Xbox last year, it is a great collectors item, and coming at only $39.99, it's something to buy if you haven't bought all titles in the trilogy yet. Although, considering you can get them all on the PC at almost the same price, there is no reason getting it other than it being just a gift or something to put next your GTA collection.
The question that needs to be asked though, is this the final release of a Grand Theft Auto product on the PlayStation 2, or will Rockstar milk more from Vice City by bringing Vice City Stories to the PlayStation 2 ? If so, they definitely need to fix all the bugs and crazy A.I. in the game...

This summer Sony created a training website for Canadian Wal Mart employees. The access codes got leaked when a store visitor saw a manager put up internal documents around the store.
After logging in, Sony marketing spin quotes can be found while employees read, learn & test their PS3 knowledge. Here’s the real gem:
“Welcome to your PS3 Retail Online Training. We trust that you will find the following information valuable and assist you in understanding and explaining PS3 Technology to your customers and staff. … The Cell Processor is essentially as powerful as 3 Xbox 360 CPU’s or 35 PlayStation® 2 CPU’s”

Article from PSPFanboy
Dave Karraker isn't the only Sony executive to face the mic in the past day. Engadget, went face to face against Peter Dille, about PLAYSTATION 3 and PSP. Just like Karraker, Dille says that the PSP does not compete directly with the DS:
We're not focused on competing with the DS head to head against the consumer they're going after. If we were, you'd see a very different top-down strategy. You'd see a very different technology that would deliver to games geared towards kids. Which is for the most part what they're doing. And so when people talk about how we're doing vis-a-vis the Nintendo DS, again, it's not the whole story. We're selling a device to guys our age, who are using it to play games, to play movies, to access video on the net, music, etc. And it's a very different product than Nintendo DS... You can look at the software that they sell. All their licensed kid stuff. So, what we're doing with the PlayStation Portable is really establishing a new marketplace, and establishing, frankly, a new beachhead. And that takes time. Having said that, it's the fastest selling platform we've launched to date. We're up to 20 million units worldwide, and that's off to a great start. So, we just need to sort of set people's expectations based on what we're trying to do, not compete against a kid machine.

An advert has been put up in a central London train station boldly proclaiming "PlayStation 3--Order now for Christmas" with a phone number in red underneath beginning with the prefix 0906, the equivalent of a 1-900 in the states. Above the number is a photo of the console and controller, against a background of seasonal snowflakes...and some fine print at the bottom reading, "Calls cost £1.50 per minute."
Brits desperate enough to get their hands on the next-gen console ahead of its official European release date in March will find themselves with an approximately £7.50 (around $14) phone charge for the four-and-a-half-minute call.
The recorded message starts by telling callers that the order line is owned and run by a sole proprietor company called Mastercash. Under British law, sole proprietor companies do not have to officially register their information with Companies House, whereas limited companies do. The address given for the company is in Merseyside, and GameSpot traced it to a self-catering apartment building, which describes itself as "luxury short break, holiday and corporate accommodation on the Liverpool waterfront."
The female voice on the recording goes on to inform potential customers that this phone line service will give British consumers possibly their only chance to get their hands on a PS3 for Christmas--and explains the situation to anyone who doesn't already know. "The official release date for the PS3 is November 17, 2006," the recording says. "But the official release date in the UK has for some reason been pushed back to March 2007. With the PS3 being so popular, the supplies the shops do get are expected to have been preordered and sold out on the same day."
The voice then explains that because of this, the PS3 Mastercash will be delivering will therefore be either a Japanese or an American console, but will come with a UK power supply and all other relevant cables. This aspect of the deal seems particularly dodgy, as Sony has previously made its intentions to sue any companies "grey importing" the new PS3 console very clear indeed.
The caller is then asked to leave his or her details, including a contact phone number and a mailing address so that the company can them call back, "to make you aware of the package content and options of additional games and accessories, along with all pricing info." The voice then adds that a caller's order is in no way binding, and that Mastercash reserves the right to cancel any or all orders "at any time it sees fit to do so." Naturally, all orders are also subject to availability.
0906 numbers are premium numbers in the UK and can be bought for prices beginning at £49. Companies can then choose from a variety of different tariffs, ranging from 10p (the owner gets .25p) a minute, through to the most expensive charge offered, £1.50 a minute, of which the owner will pocket £1.03 directly.
GameSpot contacted Sony for comment and a spokesperson said that the company would be looking into the ads.
