With Microsoft releasing its end of fiscal 2010 results, we can see how Sony's PlayStation 3 has done in relation to the Xbox 360. Surprisingly, despite strong sales in the US, the 360 has already been beaten by the PS3 with three months to spare. We've already seen Sony's end of year results. Their fiscal-year ended in March and the PS3 had sold 13 million units, spurred on by a price cut and... more.

D'oh - this just a lovely bit of bad PR. According to Microsoft's Xbox exec for the Netherlands, Sony's motion control efforts are about as sincere as Microsoft's little foray into HD-DVD. Sony doesn't care about PlayStation Move according to the Microsoft exec (oh, and ex-Sony PlayStation manager by the way). Microsoft's Paul Naber told Dutch site Bashers (via Spong): "I'm convinced that Move... more.

Gran Turismo 5 is certainly shaping up to be one hell of a sim racer. Coming to the PlayStation 3 this November, the game's premium cars approach reality, so we thought we'd give you a quick little test to see if you could tell GT5 from reality. GT5's premium cars are a site to behold - even if its standard cars a little less impressive. The game's graphics make comparing it with reality very h... more.

The PlayStation 3 may only just be hitting its stride, but previous Sony Europe CEO David Reeves has claimed that its successor isn't too far away. Whether he's talking from insider knowledge, or simply winging it, is a matter of debate. When asked about when he thought the PlayStation 4 and 'Xbox 720' would be out, Reeves (now Capcom Europe's COO) told GamesIndustry.biz: "Two to three years,... more.

...a sexy little price for a sexy little black console? Sony's latest push for 3D has prompted the launch of a promotional website pushing the technology on unexpecting consumers. It sports a new PS3 price. As we all know, the PS3 will be 3D-enabled and since it's part of Sony's 3D family, the console is featured on the company's 3D landing page. Alongside 3D TVs and Blu-ray players, the PS3 si... more.

Man Furismo Jive. It's all the rage in the future, tearing its way through living rooms as it takes over PS3 gamer's lives. It's the game that's been on its way for what feels like forever, but soon we'll be blessed. Polyphony Digital's game could be out before the snow hits the ground. Hell, it's the release period we imagined, but with LittleBigPlanet 2 scheduled for Winter 2010, it's good to... more.

Earlier this morning the CEO of Insomniac Games -- Ted Price -- released a video blog on the developer's official website to announce a partnership with Electronic Arts. What is the partnership for exactly? Well, according to Price, Insomniac is working on a new IP that they plan to deliver to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Now that's a Brit statement if ever I read one. Killzone 3 was leaked to the web last week and now the press has ripped up their NDAs, thrown them in the bin and  let loose with hands-on impressions. The title quotation comes by the way of our friends at VG247. Patrick Garratt was lucky enough to visit Guerilla Games in Amsterdam and give Killzone 3's fourth level a whirl. Featuring jetpacks... more.

Last year the internet was set alight by rumours of monthly fees coming to Sony's free PlayStation Network. Fears were soon put to rest, but the PS3's online service could see the announcement of a premium version at this year's E3. However, it's not as bad as you think. A premium subscription service may soon pervade the PlayStation Network. VG247 reports that Sony will anounce the service at ... more.

Sony now no longer loses money on each PlayStation 3 console sold. Quite the achievement for a piece of hardware that originally cost the company in the region of $800 USD to produce, if not more. No-one expected Sony to cut the price of the PS3 in 2009 when it was still a loss making proposition, but with the release of the improved PS3 Slim, the company gained some breathing space. However, w... more.

Insomniac Games, our beloved PlayStation developer, has been providing Sony with key franchises for years. Spyro the Dragon, Ratchet & Clank, Resistance; all have been corner stone products from a studio that puts out AAA titles year-on-year, every year. Industry analyst Michael Pachter, who we don't often listen to, thinks the studio is making a mistake with this exclusive approach. We've ... more.

Hardware sales flutter the hearts of some console fanboys, but we find the statistics interesting nonetheless. Sony today announced its financial 2009 year results, and though the Networked Products & Services division (which includes the Games business) lost $893 million U.S. dollars, its been a boon for PS3 sales. Improved hardware sales have closed that fabled gap between Microsoft's Xbox 3... more.
