sounds expensive errr i mean cool!

MaximusPrime6195d ago

sounds like you havent got a job. get a job and earn money.

f7897906194d ago

It's not that we don't have money, it's just we already gave it to Sony buying a PS3 and PSP. I've spent too much already!

RememberThe3576194d ago

It's called having a budget.

But this phone sounds more like the integration Stringer was talking about when he was talking about taking advantage of the PS3 and the PSN.

We are going to see more things like this in the future.

kingOVsticks6194d ago

Sounds like you're haven't gotten a life yet outside of N4g and your videogame system. Get a Life and earn the right to not consider yourself a tool.

Do you bro and i'll do me.

It's all part of Howard Stringer's integration push.

S M N6195d ago

clinker6194d ago

Website article is terrible, and anyways this is OLD news. Here are the specifications and photos of the Sony Ericsson Aino phone:

Chrome says it's a malware host. This is NOT what they mean by viral marketing.

gaffyh6195d ago

It's the Sony Ericsson Aino, not a PSP phone, it just has remote play

dragunrising6195d ago

Remote play via your cell phone is awesome. I knew there would be integration with Sony's cell phones one day. If only Verizon Wireless carried this...or any Sony cell phones :-(

Seraphim6195d ago

it's still a cool feature...

here's my problem. PSP Go. Why not toss Sony Ericcson a bone and let them roll out the Go in a Cell Phone? It's a got a perfect design. All you need is a touch screen and the cell components and you have a SIC PSP Phone. ;)

cliffbo6195d ago

there has been no mention of remote play yet...

Marojado6194d ago

I just don't see the appeal in phone consoles. They always look so bulky for actual practical phone use and the battery life gets raped. N-gage anyone? In my honest opinion, the Playstation and Sony Ericsson branches should be kept separate.

gaffyh6194d ago

@cliffbo - It's in the official press release

Theres another phone with this.

Its great that sony are finally integrating the ps3 with its other electronices, I wondered why they never did it before it ould be such a great selling point.

PotNoodle6195d ago

What other phone has this? Proper remote play, displaying the XMB on screen - where the only thing you can't do is play the games.. ?

-EvoAnubis-6195d ago

More like "PlayStation Phone Baseless Speculation."

I hate when article titles end in a question mark. That's just lazy and stupid.

lordgodalming6195d ago (Edited 6195d ago )

Dude, you beat me to this. "Confirmed" is by definition the absence of a question mark. The worst offenders are the ones where the title is so long you only see "Confir..." and then you click it, only to see the question mark. Lies!

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle18d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7718d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde25d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy25d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12525d ago (Edited 25d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Relientk7726d ago

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga26d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit26d ago (Edited 26d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199226d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga25d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac25d ago (Edited 25d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman25d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger26d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box26d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion25d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7226d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7526d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit26d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14926d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7726d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
