Sony has opened up a new section of its blog encouraging PlayStation fans to submit and vote on ideas to improve the experience on Sony platforms. Want to be heard? This is your chance.
PlayStation.Blog Share is a place where you can submit an idea you have as well as vote on others' suggestions. This can range from a gripe to a brilliant way forward, and it can encompass anything from the PS3 to PS2 to accessories or software. Once you login with your PlayStation ID, you can search for duplicate ideas, or if what you want to comment on hasn't already been entered, the site will ask you for the focus of your idea (i.e. PSN, PS3, etc.), the title, and then a 200 character explanation.
If you don't have a specific idea, but want to champion something someone else has already come up with, the front page allows you to vote, Digg style, on ideas with a simple thumbs up, thumbs down mechanic. The blog also has a leaderboard of members' top-rated ideas.
Want cross-game voice chat or emulation for PS2 games on your new PS3? Let Sony know and start the momentum of public opinion rolling.

David Jaffe's AAA PS3 title

If you are even remotely interested in the PlayStation 3, then you’ve likely been looking forward to David Jaffe’s next game. The eccentric creator is responsible two franchises synonymous with PlayStation consoles, Twisted Metal and God of War. He has long been hard at work on the first retail PS3 game from his new studio, Eat Sleep Play. Through his blog, Jaffe has been throwing his fans curve-balls; seemingly hinting at a new Twisted Metal game, and other times scoffs at any assumptions. We have uncovered what may be a “sweet” hint from Eat Sleep Play’s Production Artist.

According to Eat Sleep Play’s Production Artist, Miles Collins, he’s hard at work as a “Concept, Texture, Storyboard artist on unannounced AAA PS3 Title”. Triple A PS3 title? No surprise there. We all know Eat Sleep Play is working on something on the PS3, and everything (well almost everything) that David Jaffe touches turns to gold.
Well the interesting part, is that Collins ends his blurb about his work for Eat Sleep Play with the exclamation “Sweet!”. While that’s definitely a common term to indicate satisfaction or excitement, the word is also commonly found in the Twisted Metal series thanks to the game’s iconic character, Sweet Tooth.
This is far short of being concrete evidence so take this with a grain of salt, or an extra sweet cube of sugar.

Nintendo has announced a new version of its DS handheld system that will support 3D games. The 3DS will play games with 3D effects "without the need for any special glasses", according to the Japanese company. It will launch during its coming fiscal year, meaning it could arrive any time between April 2010 and March 2011.

^ the best thing is God of War IV: Modern Warfare :rofl:

If that is the cause they say that God of war Iv will be a modern Combat thingy.. Then I will say Hell no. Because.. at the end of Original God of War.. Gaia says that this god of war will stand as a icon for combat in futur days.. mean time.. slide shows of modern soliders and marines will appear. I thought next GoW will be something in Modern Setting that time... that was a false prediction by me.

Speculations are that next god of war will feature the Brother of Kratos whom they discussed about in First God of War.

The price of Kasumi DLC for ME2 will be Nearly $7. And the content will last just above an hour for an average player.

Only brother? If he was Zeus's son, then you can bet he must have lot of siblings i.e. if they follow the Greek Myth accurately.

Hercules is introduced in God of War III as his brother

Actually, Hercules is a son of Zeus and Hera. Statisticians opine that zeus slept with more than thousand chicks(kratos mother is one of those chicks) and have more than 100 children.

But Kratos has a brother..who shared womb with him. Obviously...Zeus was his father too.
 
Fill me in guys. If Kratos is Zeus's son then how come he's not a God?

As for that brother thingy, Kratos will be there. The director indicated that the brother will be back from Hades for vengeance because Kratos abandoned him.

You mean his biological brother right?

The funny thing is that I was just going through the YouTube videos and here I came across the "Secrets Revealed" video from God of War. This video spills all the beans and clearly states that Kratos knows his father was Zeus and seeks revenge for abandoning him. So I'm a bit confused why Kratos is surprised in God of War II when Athena says that Zeus is his father? Or my memory has faded away?

Anyway, here's the video: *www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jKCo6VfDeM&feature=related

I understand the part about his real brother now.

Ditto.I myself asked that question many times.I think it is a plot hole.
