 Metal Gear Rising Revengeance was already pretty crazy, being a sci-fi character action game about a cyborg cutting people up into pieces, based on a military stealth game. New DLC announced by developer Platinum Games brings the insanity into uncomfortable new levels.
For example, "VR19: Unarmed Combat Training" contains side-scrolling, unarmed brawling gameplay. That's part of 30 new VR missions, including one set in a dark room. These are the PS3-exclusive missions we'll be getting in North America.
"Soul of the Snake" is a special wooden sword ... that speaks in Solid Snake's voice when used. "Passionate feelings are alive and well for the cardboard," according to the Google Translation of Platinum's post. We'd translate it more naturally, but that's too wonderful to change.
The second announced DLC puts you in the shoes of enemy cyborg, and sneering jerk, Jetstream Sam. And the third DLC lets you play as LQ-84i ... the robot dog. Platinum didn't offer a timeframe for these, except for the DLC missions due in Japan in April, and noted that all the images were of content currently under development. All we know is that Platinum won't be accused of saving cut content from the main game for DLC, since we don't know where that "and now you're the Blood Wolf" chapter would have fit in.

The PlayStation 4 could employ a multiple-tier subscription service, offering different levels of access in a style similar to a cable television company, Sony Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida tells The Guardian.
"We could have gold, silver or platinum levels of membership, something like that," Yoshida says. "We can do subscription services when we have more content – especially now that we have the Gaikai technology available. With one subscription you have access to thousands of games – that's our dream."
Yoshida says the PS4 will have more digital content than its predecessors, at least: Every game will be available as a download, while some will still be sold at retail. This makes it easier to host smaller games such as Jonathan Blow'sThe Witness, and it supports a broader range of payment models, such as free-to-play or subscription-based games.
"We're shifting our platform more and more to the digital side," he says. "PS4 will be similar to PS Vita in that every game will be available as a digital download, and some will also be available as a disc."
Yoshida previously confirmed that current-gen PSN games won't run nativelyon PS4, though emulation or cloud service plans aren't out of the question.

 Two PlayStation Vita apps from international waters are making their way to North American Vitas this Spring, Sony announced today. Both Friend Network and Imaginstrumentsare headed to the PlayStation Network on Vita, and neither was given a price -- each is free in its given country of origin (Japan and Europe, respectively). The former is a social networking app that encourages new relationships (with strangers! gross!) through a variety of minigames, and it stars little known PlayStation mascot Toro. You can also integrate Twitter and Facebook to find real life friends, with the ultimate goal for reaching 100. The latter is a music app that enables some light music composition; think of Imaginstruments as a pared down Korg synth. Take a look at each app in action, just beyond the jump.

via http://wololo.net/2013/02/25/tn-v-wi...-all-exploits/
Total_Noob’s XMB CEF for the PS Vita will support all exploits when it releases.
So recently we reported that TN-V would one only be for the UNO 2.02 exploit but we can now confirm that it will support all exploits that have been previously released. All users with a kernel exploit on firmwares 1.61-2.02 will be able to use TN-V. If you can use eCFW right now then you’ll be able to use TN-V.
If you happen to be on a lower firmware without an exploit and happen to have a PS3, the Open CMA copying trick still works (I have not had time to personally test this, but reports are that it’s still working.) Furthermore, just to add clarification there are no exploits available and most likely wont be one for firmware 2.05, a usermode (VHBL) exploit will probably be the next to release; which is not capable of TN-V or anything other than homebrew. Also to address some other concerns, TN-V will not support USB functionality with the case being that primarily the USB is not emulated in the PSP emulator.
TN-V is set to release in March 2013.

Diablo 3 on PC/Mac required an internet connection to play. But it doesn't sound like Diablo 3 on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 will."You can have four people on the same screen - no split-screen, we just zoom the camera out. Or if you're offline..." Sony's John Hight trailed off, interrupted by GameTrailers host Geoff Keighley in a post-PlayStation Meeting interview (via ).The suggestion seemed to be that you could play four-player same-screen co-op offline with friends.Keighley was expressing his surprise at the new evade system Hight mentioned for Diablo 3 on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4. Hight didn't go into too much detail but suggested that it will allow you to hop out of the way enemies.The always online requirement of Diablo 3 on PC/Mac helped preserve the integrity of the Auction House and, more importantly, the Real-Money Auction House. Whether either will exist PlayStation isn't known.Hight was on the couch with Blizzard creative director Chris Metzen. He mentioned that the paper dolls of Diablo 3 on PC/Mac will disappear on PS3/PS4 in place of a 3D model that changes depending on the items equipped.Hight said Diablo 3 was "much further along" on PS3 than it was on PS4. He mentioned that the team had only just seen the DualShock 4 controller, but that there were some "thoughts" about how the touchpad could be used for Diablo 3.Diablo 3 on PS3/PS4 will have all the updates present on PC, including PVP brawling. There's no specific word on when the console version will launch.

Sony has said it is aware of the challenge Microsoft's impending Xbox 720 reveal presents, but isn't letting the competition dictate its strategy.  Speaking to Bloomberg Business Week, Jack Tretton, chief executive officer of SCEA, said the company is confident in that holiday 2013 is the right time to launch its next console regardless of what Microsoft may offer."We've always had different competitors, we were in the space before Microsoft and we may be in the space after Microsoft," said Tretton."We've seen competitors come and go, I think we're mindful of what we do. Quite frankly we believe that anything that adds attention and success in the gaming industry is good for us. We're aware of our competition but we march to own strategy and we're very confident that holiday 2013 is a great time to bring out PlayStation 4."In the interview, Tretton was also quizzed on the role that new casual audience will have to play in the PlayStation 4, given that the reveal event was seemingly targeted at the hardcore market."There's a lot of the story still to tell," he replied. "We wanted to focus on the games and talk to our gaming audience... The gamers got it, that's who we're talking to.""I think those [casual] consumers are great, they're additive. They play those bitesized free experiences, those five minute experiences, it demystifies gaming and hopefully they move up the food chain to a dedicated console."But if you're a dedicated gamer who plays a console you understand the difference between a tablet and smartphone experience, so I don't see them as a threat. But we recognise that our gamers are very communicative, they're using other devices, and we want to involve them in the PlayStation universe regardless of of where they are or what device they're using."Although Sony has specified a holiday 2013 release date for the PS4, it qualified this by saying the release would be in "at least" one region this year. The precise details on the PS4 Europe release date haven't been nailed down.Developers and other industry professionals have told CVG they expect Microsoft will reveal the next-gen Xbox for the first time in April.Ustechs, the company used for media briefings such as the E3 2012 press conference, recently registered the domain XboxEvent.com.

How enormously smart of Sony to seize the moment and "go first" without actually going first.  What we saw on that electrifying Wednesday evening was merely a concept of a console, flatteringly portrayed by Sony executives and yet invisible to the scrutiny of critics. We heard of a "super-charged PC" ready for developers to exploit, an operating system as slick and baggage-free as an iPhone, a console sentient enough to predict what its owners want.What we didn't see, of course, is how exactly Sony is going to achieve this. Let's not forget that Sony initially said the PS3 was an immensely powerful system that could change the colour of the sun whilst checking your emails, and look what happened to that.So it's completely understandable that there are tough questions about Sony's grand promises (example; David Perry's ambition to stream every single previous PlayStation game would require an astronomical effort to untangle twenty years of old licensing agreements).But as the Redmond-heads at Xbox mock their closest rival for not showing that sparkly box (in a sort of passive-aggressive Twitterism), they may not have noticed just how expertly Sony has played its hand.The market has been desperate for new consoles for more than two years, and Sony has placed itself at the centre of that frenzy for next-gen. It puts pressure on Microsoft to respond, and gives the Xbox team a benchmark to meet. Yet PlayStation 4 is only a philosophy right now - there's not much of the console that Microsoft can measure, let alone leapfrog.Yes, the mass-media may be a tad grumpy about being flown to New York just to see a logo, but this time Sony is shrewdly showing just some of its cards. The world is thrilled that PlayStation 4 is no longer speculation, and yet all the secrets of the machine won't be revealed until the second half of the year - by then the Next Xbox will be too close to the manufacturing phase for Microsoft to take into account the key features of its rival.Maybe Kaz Hirai was actually onto something when he said in January: "Why go first when your competitors can look at your specifications and come up with something better?"

 After all the press events, TV cameos and probing interviews, what do we really know about the PS4? The announcement of the next-gen console is a prime example of having an abundance of specs and a lack of knowledge. Although Sony put out a sheet of stats about the console's processor and memory, many of the words it used -- Jaguar cores, compute units, unified memory -- are more ambiguous than they may sound.
Nevertheless, even with all these foggy bits, there are some things -- five, in fact -- that we probably can predict about the PS4's hardware. They're listed after the break in order of decreasing certainty. All the way from confident logic down to... well, not quite flailing around with a butter knife during a power cut, but you get the picture.

UK retail may be advertising the PS4 as due in 2013, but its arrival in Europe before Christmas is anything but guaranteed.
Indeed, SCEE UK MD Fergal Gara is happy to confirm that the machine definitely will launch in 2013, but won’t go anywhere near specifying the regions in which it will arrive.
When asked by Digital Spy “if it's the case that one region will get the PS4 this year?” Gara replied: "At least. It will launch this year, but the precise details as I say for exact dates, exact regions, is it all or some of them? We don't know.
"We will launch it this year. Exactly what regions, what timing, is being worked through. Which regions in 2013 – is it all of them, is it some of them? Is there some degree of phasing? We'll reveal that in more detail later but we can't yet."
It would be a shame for Sony to miss the key European (and possibly American) Christmas shopping period – particularly if Microsoft has plans on getting its new machine out of the door by then.

Having previously named 53 European studios as confirmed PS4 developers, Sony has now revised the list to just 28 companies.
Furthermore, none of the studios that made the initial list are included in the revised version. SCEE told Joystiq that the original information was “erroneous”.
Studios no longer named include Minecraft creator Mojang, Angry Birds’ Rovio and Burnout/NFS dev Criterion.
There are some great additions though, including Hitman’s IO Interactive, UK outfit Ninja Theory, standalone DayZ developer Bohemia, 2K Games, Sumo Digital and Witcher 3 creators CD Projekt.
No changes were made to the lists of US or Japanese developers.

 PlayStation 4 games will be digital-first, flexibly priced and, eventually, part of a cable TV-style subscription service, according to Shuhei Yoshida.Sony’s head of worldwide studios told The Guardian that PS4’s digital storefront will accommodate every kind of pricing model.”We’re shifting our platform more and more to the digital side – PS4 will be similar to PS Vita in that every game will be available as a digital download, and some will also be available as a disc,” he said. “The Witness will be a digital release and because of the flexibility of the digital distribution scheme, we can have more small games that might be free or available for a couple of dollars, or different services like free-to-play or subscription models.”He added that the longer-term aim for PS4 is to turn it into a service-led platform through the use of Gaikai’s cloud technology.“As more and more services and contents become available digitally, we’ll have more of an option to create attractive packages,” he continued.“So hypothetically we can look at different models – like a cable TV company. We could have gold, silver or platinum levels of membership, something like that. We can do subscription services when we have more content – especially now that we have the Gaikai technology available. With one subscription you have access to thousands of games – that’s our dream.”

Id Software's technical director praises new console design
Graphics guru John Carmack has given the specs of the PS4 his blessing.
Though previously underwhelmed by the next-generation consoles, the id Software co-founder has taken a more positive tone now that the key specs have been revealed.
"I can’t speak freely about PS4, but now that some specs have been made public, I can say that Sony made wise engineering choices," he said over Twitter.
It remains to be seen whether Microsoft's new console will gain Carmack's approval, but it should be noted that Carmack's objections had little to do with computing power.
"Sony and Microsoft are going to fight over gigaflops and teraflops and GPUs and all this," he told Games Industry International. "In the end, it won't make that much difference."

Even though i have between me and my son near on 50 games for the PS3, my fave at this time is Grand Theft Auto 4, What i would like to see on the PS3 is a full speed port of the Dreamcast Emulator NullDC working at FullHD resolution.
