Sony drops news: games, games, games

Sony has stepped their game up in 2008. 2007 was a tough year, but 2008 is coming along nicely. but, there has been alot of game news in the last few days. here is some of the more interesting game news (to me anyway.)

SONY ENDS PLAYSTATION UNDERGROUND, REPLACES WITH PLAYSTATION NETWORK ONLINE

(source - kotaku.com)

wow. underground is over next week. shame. but, as long as the website moves closer to a bungie/xbox360-like interface where you can check your friends' list and trophies online, i'm cool with it. the website updates 'early' next week.

ALL PS3 GAME MUST HAVE TROPHIES STARTING NEXT YEAR,

sweet deal. i'm not really a trophy whore. granted, some have had me scratching my head, trying to figure out how the hell do i get 100,000,000 points in Pain to get the Affliction Addiction trophy. but overall, i dig having them around. and with sony possibly starting a reward system around your trophy score, (i'm not sure what it's really called) it's making me more likely to try to get more trophies in pixel junk eden. now, if they would hurry up with the fallout 3 trophies........

MORE PS1 GAMES COMING "SOON" LET'S HOPE

(source - mtv's multiplayer blog)

well, this would be a welcome change. sure, the PS store is rolling along and i'd like to think that sony is leading in the downloadable content department. but, not having more PS1 games online is a crime. drop street fighter EX next week with Street Fighter 2 hyper mega global super remix 2. MGS2 and MGS3? dark cloud? rez? the list could go on forever. let's hope this is going to jump off sooner then later.


sony is trying to keep up with the times. i dig it. back to playing fallout 3.
