News via http://emu-russia.net/en/
Super Nintendo emulator for Sony PlayStation 3 has been updated. Changes:
- PAL issues are fixed at all resolutions - ghosting is gone;
- It's now possible to run NTSC ROMs and PAL ROMs alike correctly at 576p PAL mode. When the setting 'PAL60' is set to ON, a trick will be applied to get NTSC ROMs to run correctly at 50Hz mode. If set to OFF, it will run PAL ROMs correctly. Even though PAL ROMs will play normally now at 480p/720p/1080p, 576p still seems to run PAL ROMs slightly better - but it's probably unnoticeable to the user.
- Cheatcode files can now be loaded and selected/enabled ingame. Note that all zSNES and SNES9x cheatcode files are supported - everything with the .CHT extension. You can also set a Cheatfile directory. If you don't set a Cheatfile directory, the default will be USRDIR.
- Cheatfiles must have the same filename as the ROM. Here is how selecting and enabling cheats works in-game:
- Right analog stick - Left + L2 - Move cheat position back by one (-1)
- Right analog stick - Right + L2 - Move cheat position forwards by one (+1)
* Right analog stick - Up - Enable the currently selected cheat
* Right analog stick - Down - Disable the currently selected cheat

There's a new Quest system heading to the PlayStation Rewards scheme, Sony has announced.
According to the PlayStation Blog, the new system will reward you with progress points for successfully completing various grueling tasks.
For example, the "No Place Like Home" quest asks you to visit the central plaza in PlayStation Home, "Check Your Pulse" demands you watch PlayStation Network's Pulse in HD and "Move It" is completed by booting up a Move title.
There will be nine quests added to the PlayStation Rewards beta tomorrow, with plenty more promised in the coming months.
Not up to speed on what PlayStation Rewards is all about? Let Sony's Chris Hagedorn explain:
"PlayStation Rewards was made to recognise and reward members for doing the things they love – interacting with and experiencing the entertainment that PlayStation offers.
"As users play games, check out PlayStation Network's original programming, review games and explore PlayStation Home, they will earn progress toward the program's three tiers – Select, Pro and Legendary status.
If you're not part of the beta, you'll have to wait until the full launch in April 2011.

An early prototype for Sony's Move controller featured a thumbstick and a trackball, among other bells and whistles.
The revelations come courtesy of a Sony patent dug up by PlayStation Lifestyle.
Regarding the thumbstick, the patent clarifies, "In some embodiments, the joystick 114 is used to control aspects of a game console such as manipulating an onscreen cursor. In other embodiments, the joystick is used to control movement or actions of onscreen avatars."
The trackball is perhaps the more interesting idea though. Apparently, it was to be a detachable module, allowing for interchangeable add-ons such as a button cluster that could turn the wand into an old-fashioned joystick (see fig. 4a).
The patent goes on to reveal unfulfilled aspirations for the sphere on top of the controller too. In the prototyped version it could act as both a pressure sensor and a controller in its own right (see fig. 5a).
Alas, as we know, these features didn't make the final cut. It's not clear why, but it's possible Sony's bank manager stepped in. The kind of magic tricks mooted by the design sound like they might not have come cheap.

Profoundly blurry pictures and hearsay – as far as the PSP2 goes that’s as concrete as it gets for now, but the evidence is seemingly more than enough for outspoken US analyst Michael Pachter to write off the machine before it’s even revealed.
“I think the PSP was dead on arrival and I think the PSP2 is going to be dead on arrival,” he explained on his Pach Attack webcast.
However, Pachter’s warnings weren’t just for the PSP – instead, he fears for the very viability of a handheld space he sees being increasingly controlled by Apple.
“We’re approaching saturation in the handheld market,” he added. “We’re starting to see DS hardware sales crack, the iPod Touch is cutting into the handheld market. It looks to me like young kids are just as happy playing with the iPod Touch.
“The 3DS will prolong the handheld market for manufacturers, but ultimately I think handhelds are in trouble. What’s the difference if you play Tetris on an iPod Touch or on a DS? Well, you pay a buck on the iPod Touch and you pay $20 on the DS.
“After the 3DS has had its little rush I think the handhelds will continue to decline.”
Last month Ready At Dawn developer Ru Weerasuriya said PSP was “doomed from the beginning”.
Since its launch in 2004 the PSP has sold a staggering 60m units worldwide, making it – in raw unit terms at least – one of the best selling consoles ever made, lagging only behind the PS2, PSOne, Game Boy, Game Boy Advance, Wii and DS.
It’s currently the second best-selling games console of 2010 in Japan, ahead of the Wii and PS3 and behind only the DS.

Are you looking for the quietest place in the (virtual) world? Yes, even quieter than PlayStation Home. Sony Europe just launched a PlayStation Plus-exclusive lounge inside of Home. Perfect for the person who likes Home, but just wishes it didn't have so many people in it.
Once you get past the doorman in the marble foyer, you'll be able to converse with the other occupant of the PlayStation Plus Private Members Club in peace -- mostly about how awesome it is to have a place to go where you can get away from all the people who meant to launch the PlayStation Store. There's a bar, "alcoves" for conversation, and even an exclusive card game, optimistically designed for two to four players.

Many of us can't play PS2 games on our PS3s right now, but Sony has come up with a clever, and distinctly Sony-like, workaround for that problem: sticking a PS2 into a Bravia HDTV. And only ten years after the system's contemporary, the Dreamcast, was packed into a Fuji TV.
The budget-focused (okay, maybe it's not all that Sony-like) Bravia KDL-22PX300 includes 720p output, four HDMI ports ... and a PS2. We bet you can't guess where the PS2 hardware is in that sleek, sleek design. The set's currently available in the UK for £199.95 (about $312).

The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) has connected 1,760 PlayStation 3 systems together to create what the organization is calling the fastest interactive computer in the entire Defense Department. The Condor Cluster, as the group of systems is known, also includes 168 separate graphical processing units and 84 coordinating servers in a parallel array capable of performing 500 trillion floating point operations per second (500 TFLOPS), according to AFRL Director of High Power Computing Mark Barnell.

At this point, does it really surprise anyone that a new phone is leaking by way of a photo sharing site? We totally understand the conundrum: when you're logged into a phone that you're testing and you're taking pictures, it's so easy to upload 'em. And hey, you need to test the sharing functionality at some point anyway, right? At any rate, we love it, so we're not going to complain that a few photos with Sony Ericsson Zeus clearly called out in the EXIF data have started showing up on Picasa. The four appropriately-labeled pictures all clock in at 5 megapixels, so we hope you weren't expecting an N8-beating resolution here... but then again, when you're heads-down in PlayStation-branded games for hours on end, do you really have time to be taking decent pictures anyway?
