    Me want little big planet now!!!!!

    Im not fully sure why they did the 3000. I know a big point is to revise the hw to stop piracy but why not do it quietly. Guessing it's so they can get people & stores to take the new stock quicker.

    All of that looks pretty good, especially Eyepet (wife went crazy over it) and KZ2. I much prefer the crash landing version of the 'introduction'

    The "new" PSP does look sexy, even more than the current versions. I might be tempted if it'll sell for the current price in Europe :nod:

    - Konami announced GTI Club Plus for PlayStation Network, a HD remake of the classic arcade racer from 1990s. The game will have eight player online modes, and support the PlayStation Eye camera.

    No offence, but whoever thought up that keyboard probably hasn't ever used a controller.

    Not to mention they'll manufacture it with cheap plastic and it will break easily.

    Anyway, looking forward GTI Club :thumbsup:

    I just hope they don't kill the feel of the game.

    Something new about Heavy Rain at last. They should have shown it back at the E3. GTI Club looks nice too.

    And we've even got news about what London Studio have been working on after cancelling Eight Days and The Getaway. Way much better this Pet thing than those other games...

    Worrying how if this launch PS3 of mine breaks I can't replace it with one that does everything it does. Hmmm... :(

    Better not break then.

    Er.. She looks exactly like Keira Knightley.

    But impressive graphics indeed.
