20GB PS3 to require wired controllers
[PS3] Lower-end model also lacks HDMI, memory card slot and, erm, chrome lettering
Sony has today cleared up the confusion over the differences in specification between the two models of PlayStation 3 - and the cheaper version won't support wireless controllers.
As announced by the company on Monday, two versions of PS3 will be available at launch - one with a 60GB hard drive, and a less pricy model that features a 20GB hard drive. However, what the company didn't mention at the time is that the 20GB machine also lacks a number of key features that are included as standard in the more expensive model.
The 20GB console won't include an HDMI output, which means that it won't be able to deliver high definition pictures. But perhaps more disappointing is that wireless bluetooth controllers won't be supported; instead, gamers will have to make do with retro-style wired-up versions of the increasingly controversial PS3 pad.
The 60GB version of PlayStation 3 is identifiable by its chrome lettering
In addition, the lower-end model also lacks WiFi and the slot for Memory Stick Duo cards included in the full-spec PS3.
A Sony representative on the show floor at E3 also emphasized that gamers won't be able to upgrade the memory of the 20GB version; if that's the PS3 incarnation you opt for, you're permanently stuck with a 20GB memory limit.
Amazingly, Sony big boss man Phil Harrison, in a BBC interview earlier this week, insisted, "What we should be clear about is that the functionality is identical in both machines. There is no difference in what the machine does."
Unfortunately, the actual facts seem to suggest otherwise.

Jsharrad has released an updated version of Miner PSP, heres the info:
<blockquote>MinerPSP v1.0
-------------
MinerPSP is based on the game Miner VGA released into the public domain by Harrel W. Stiles in 1989.
You control a miner who's objective is to go underground, collect, and sell valuable materials to win the love of Miss Mimi. She likes rich men but
money is not the only thing that will win her heart....
Controls
--------
Start ---------------------- Main menu
Cross --------------------- Select menu item while menu open
D-Pad --------------------- Move miner
D-Pad Up ----------------- Enter building
Hold R + Up/Down ----- Elevator up/down 100ft
Hold Circle --------------- Inventory window
Hold Triangle + -- Drill granite at
Hold Square + --- Bail water at
Hold R + press L -------- Use dynamite (requires a torch)
Select --------------------- Take a screenshot
TIPS:
-----
Buy a drill as soon as economically possible, you could get trapped by caveins with no way out otherwise.
Buy a bucket as soon as economically possible, you could get trapped by water springs with no way out otherwise.
You will always try to run back toward the elevator when setting off dynamite, a clear path helps you get out of the blast radius.
You can walk faster in town by holding down the d-pad than in the dangerous mine.
Light sources allow you to see minerals & hazards easier.
Digging tools reduce your mining costs.
Woody's surgical blade is known to give miners a temporary boost in hitpoints at a cost.
Many rumors are to be heard in the saloon.
Grey stones that pop up when you walk by dirt means there's something there, not necessarily good.
Extract the folders to your /PSP/GAME folder and Enjoy!
Things to do still:
Add sound
Refine instructions </blockquote>

<blockquote>The debate between who will be the leader in the shake-em-up controller war between Wii and PS3 will continue on for the ages, but for our money, Sony has already been the rebel leading the revolution for years now. EyeToy has been a meager hit in America, but it's mondo across the pond where it was invented, and SCE Europe is continuing its phenomenon with several games premiered here at E3 2006. Most are not America, but import fans and our Euro-carrying readers should definitely take a look out for a series of games that take EyeToy to the next level.
We weren't able to get any word on the conceptual idea of an infrared EyeToy for the nex-gen version (mentioned by EyeToy creator Richard Marx), but we did get to shoot the talk with lead producer Tom Holmes at SCE Europe about the PSP camera. While we didn't really like the performance level displayed on the SCE show floor, the producer stated that he had seen it himself back at the lab and had no problems, estimating that perhaps the framerate delay was due to the low-level lighting conditions on the floor that required it to kick into another processor mode. As far as gameplay concepts, he hinted that we should think beyond the idea, as many have jumped to the conclusion of, for playing standard EyeToy: Play with your face. That may be a feature for fun, but that's not really the main concept in development. When we asked if maybe the PSP could be used as a portable EyeToy, with perhaps a stand that you could simply set up at parties and rock out to, Tom responded, "Well, you could do that ... but then it would just be EyeToy: Play on PSP." We couldn't get specifics at this early junction about what they will be doing with EyeToy PSP, but the ideas they are playing with at the moment are more about filming the world around you and somehow interacting with that in gameplay. </blockquote>

Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops instantly jumped to the top of portable gamers' most wanted lists, but there's another MGS in the works for the PSP. The latest issue of Famitsu has the full scoop on Konami's previously announced PSP digital comic, fully titled Metal Gear Solid Bande Dessinee.
Directed and produced by Hideo Kojima himself, and featuring graphics by Ashley Wood, Bande Dessinee uses the North American Metal Gear Solid comic as a base and adds visual and aural effects to make a multimedia experience. All 12 chapters of the comic are included in the PSP adaptation.
The title makes the comic viewing experience interactive, even beyond convenient navigation features. Wood's artwork has been converted into 3D models for two modes of play designed to give further insight into the world of the comics. As you view the comic, you can press the square button to enter a "memory search" mode. In this mode, you can freely search for people and items by navigating the screen in three dimensions . Anything you find is added to a database whose contents can be traded with friends via WiFi.
Also included is a mission mode of sorts. Info that you've collected from the digital comic is added to a library that can be viewed by pressing the triangle button. In this mode, you're assigned missions requiring that you properly connect together the information that you've gathered. We're not sure if there's much in the way of gameplay here, although the magazine suggests that the missions have a puzzle-like feel to them.
Based on the images in the magazine, Metal Gear Solid Bande Dessinee is completely in English, right down to the mission briefings. Perhaps Metal Gear Solid fans will be able to look forward to a release outside of Japan.

PlayStation 3 borrows PSP's menu interface, but offers a few intriguing additions Power-up your PlayStation 3 and you’ll be greeted by a PSP-style start-up screen. All the icons are identical to those of its handheld counterpart, with movies (Hi-Def ones, of course), music and web options all available. But the PS3’s interface packs a couple of new additions.
First, is the ‘Users’ button which enables you to flick between profiles, suggesting that Sony is expecting each machine to be fought over by more than one member of the family. The other intriguing icon is a ‘Friends’ button. However, Sony wasn’t willing to give us any more info on how these systems will actually function at this early stage.
Another interesting snippet was confirmation that you’ll be able to use a keyboard and mouse with PS3, enabling you to easily browse the web on your telly.

New Product from Success HK, heres the details:
The first handheld iteration of Konami's top sports title, this PSP version of Winning Eleven (known as Pro Evolution Soccer in Europe) will feature the utter realism, intuitive play and fast-paced action of the ever-popular series. The handheld version will also be almost identical in terms of available clubs and international sides, with 57 national sides lining up alongside 136 club teams. The highly-competitive multi-player aspects of the game are highlighted using the hardware's wireless systems. Challenge rival players (via an ad-hoc wireless connection) to games, with all data related to match results ? goals for, goals against, wins, etc ? retained in a running tally. Solo players can also hone their skills within six different leagues and a host of cup tournaments, and the PSP game can also be linked to the PlayStation 2 version for data exchange of created teams for playing on either version or for trading with friends.

Yesterday, we asked a few people on the show to give their reaction to the following question: "Will the lack of rumble in the Dual Shake hurt the PlayStarion 3?" Here are some reactions we got:
David Edery: Game Tycoon
it's certainly a shame to lose something where rumble matters in the design context. Rumble has always felt like icing to me; it's not crucial. Not having the motion sensing at all, that's a huge problem. I'd be much more worrying about microsoft, frankly. rumble has never mattered to me that much. i think it'll hurt them, but I don't know how much. I don't think it's a huge deal. people want to move, though. not having that when others do have it, will be a huge disadvantage.
Jessie: GamerSurvival
"It'll hurt; I've heard a lot of people upset [over the decision]."
David Reid: VP Marketing for GameTap
i've never thought of it as a big deal. that's me personally. there was a time when i was deep in the weeds at xbox when we were like ... do we pay for one motor or two motors. i think the bigger story is a 499 box that doesn't have hdmi, doesn't have wifi, doesn't have a memory unit. i think lack of rumble is the least of their problems. those are really smart gusy they've got a really great business i'm sure thtey know what they're doing but it really sturck me as odd.
Delila: OnTheXbox.com
"[The rumble] adds to the experience, feeling the explosions for example. It's gonna hurt them."
Roman: Industry Analyst
[Lack of rumble] is not the main thing that's going to hurt them. To me they're the loser of the show. I'm very concerned actually. Rumble is marginal compared to other issues.
Cesar: Gamerscore
"Not as much as the price."

Ogranise, the PSP homebrew organizer now supports the new naming convention ('__SCE__'/'%__SCE__').
If you are unfamiliar with Ogranise, here's a recap.
Ogranise, like many other programs, lets you organize the homebrew icons for your 1.5 PSP. However, unlike the other programs, Ogranise runs on your PSP. Keep your favorite homebrew at the top without needing a USB connection.
